| To RJ. from Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to Wor. {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} PN. {Mr Northey} c. to BY. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} CWB. c. to EP. {G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} X8950 Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 2/LG2.7.26. RE. Bt. {Capt. J. S. Burt - Engineer} 118-MC CAR. X8950 X766 X8250 Answering your BJ9/E30.6.26. We think we ought to point out that there is no suggestion of increasing the cooling capacity on Phantom cars. We do not consider that Bt {Capt. J. S. Burt - Engineer} 's experience justifies any action being taken when we consider all the various difficulties to carry this out. Did Bt. {Capt. J. S. Burt - Engineer} run with the shutters in the bonnet open? - no mention is made of this. In the technical information issued by the Experimental Dept. in the section on 'Cooling', it is explained why a small car can always be more effectively cooled than a big one.
