The following is from The Rouynâ€" Noranda Press of Thursday last: The spirit of the British people was thumbnailed in an eighteenâ€"word cable received by Paul G. Hoffman and R. A. Hutchinson from Bertie Henly, Studebaker distributor of London, England. Worried the safety of their London associate, Mr. Hoffman, preâ€" sident of The Studebaker CorporatiOn, and Mr. Hutchinson, viceâ€"president and »general manager of The Studoâ€" baker Export Corporation, cabled Mr. Henly inquiring as to how he and his family were withstanding the Hitler air raids. "We are all right thanks with chins right up. Lots of our buildings were dirty anyway. Love from everyOone." it was signed, "Bertie Henly." Up until the outbreak of the war, Mr. Henly‘s company, besides being the largest distributor of automobilés in the world, owned and operated their own airport in conjunction with the sale of airplanes. However, the tone of the message indicated that property loss was a minor issue in the battle for Democracy.
