BRAKE LININGS. With reference to your note of the 14th.inst. We believe that Brake Linings, Ltd., is run by Mr. Bailey. We are considering fitting some of his linings to our cars and are actually in communication with him on the subject. You will appreciate that testing brake linings is a very tedious job and we have to keep down the varieties that we test to the absolute minimum.
