Bailey - Chief Engineer} HS. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} ) (At Le Canadel(Henry Royce's French residence).) X4300 R1/M11.1.31. C. to SG. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} WOR. {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} C. to DA {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} /EV. {Ivan Evernden - coachwork} INTERIOR HEATING OF CARS. HS {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 's report is very useful. I prefer using the hot water in a radiator specially for heating the rear compartment. Exhaust heating seems more unsatisfactory and we should run up against many difficulties. Draining and freezing seem important. We ought to let DA {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} /EV. {Ivan Evernden - coachwork} work at the matter. He may need an assistant because his work is continually increasing. R. {Sir Henry Royce} | ||
