Major F.{Mr Friese} Halford,
8 & 9, Golden Square,
LONDON, W.1.

Dear Halford,

We have not yet tried out any of your proposed modifications on the hydraulic valve rocker. As a matter of fact we have had to concentrate on the Cadillac as we have decided that this is the one which gives us the best results.

When we are a little less congested we will be able to carry on with the tests.

Yours sincerely,

FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED.
