| X3117. S/W. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} re- Located Jacks. Cx{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager}6/KW/21.1.32. Captain Wylie called yesterday and appeared to know that you were testing out a located jack known as the D.W.S. - in fact he told me that you had been trying it for about five months. He is very anxious to have some such form of jack on his car, but he will not let the manufacturers put it on until he knows that it meets with your approval. Can you please give me any information on this subject, as Captain Wylie is very anxious to know what you decide. Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} RECEIVED 1932 JAN 23 | ||
