To E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} From Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}

Sg {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} 13/E2.5.32. -2-

I should like to have your recommendation on this.

The last part of the telegram about transmission vibration presumably refers to correspondence with Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} relative to the fitting of a damper on the back of the gear-box.

I am not clear what "R" really means "regret departed from my impression" but doubtless you and Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} will be going into this matter and I shall hear something further.

If, as I understand, you are at WW, I should be glad if you would let me know on the telephone to-morrow whether you could conveniently call here on your way back to Derby as I think we could usefully discuss some of these points and save time.
