| L.A. (At Lillie Hall). From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. 6153. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.6/MJ.14.8.35. I am sending to you by passenger train today the new car radio aerial which we have made up for mounting under one of the running boards. An adjustment is provided to enable the aerial to be raised or lowered from the running board to obtain the best results. If you find this aerial satisfactory I see no reason why it could not be made a standard fitting for all new cars fitted with radio and we could make them and supply them from the Works.
