RATTLES IN THE TRANSMISSION.
Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 3/KT9.5.33

I do not know whether you are expecting a reply to the last paragraph of your memo, but our position is that we have no car at present that is suffering from this complaint.

As a matter of fact this is not a general complaint from the Public, but no doubt you are well aware of it.

Do you wish us to look out for a car for you?
