X.3518 Rolls-Royce America Inc. 707, City Realty Building, Springfield, Mass. Feb. 2nd. 1920. Ref. NHM- 355. To - Mr. DeLooze. From Mr. Manning. X.3518. - RE FERODO BRAKE LINERS. X.3893. The Herbert Frood Company Ltd., under date of Jan. 9th have quoted us 500 brake liners (piece No. 4574) at 2/10d. On referring to copy of order placed by Derby Sept. 10 1920, we find that you paid 1/10d. It is possible that the price has advanced in the last few months, but we would like to know the price which you are paying for these liners at the present time, so that we can compare it with the quotation which they have made to us. We have also sent over several samples of brake linings obtainable in this country, and in your reply we would appreciate if you would advise whether these have arrived and when we might expect to know the results of tests on the same.
