Dear Toseland,

I have just received a telegram from Summers

in which he informs me that the first twenty "Gladiator"

aircraft have been tested, gun installation completed,

and handed over to the Chinese. I understand that they

have been flown to some umed destination in the North.

Summers and the mechanics are returning to

Hong Kong to await the arrival of the second batch due at

the end of the month.

Will you please advise all interested.

Yours sincerely,

(Signed).
