X 300a W/P - Mr. Hancock. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}11/KW.30.9.36. We want the people running the test in London to be quite clear as to what their daily programme is. You will remember that we decided not to run week-ends unless there was special need for this. Also, until we have settled the London traffic problems we do not want to do ordinary road running in England. We can discuss the matter with you next time you come to the Works.
