| 1260 To-BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} Copy to He.Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Cars for France. Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}1/E29639 Thanks for BY.10/C.27.6.39. I think there is little doubt that, for reasons previously discussed, we can make use from a sales point of view of Silver Ripple before Silver Phantom. Such being the case, it would seem better to send the former to France first. I will speak to you about this on the 3 o'clock call this afternoon. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
