| - 2 - Cont'd.{John DeLooze - Company Secretary} In consequence, we are getting a bit short of sleep. Possibly you will be flying over on the Air Service to have a look at the effects of bombing for yourself. Yours sincerely, P.S. Mr. F.J.Hardy who works for me, has been given the job of correlating all the information which is sent out from Derby to the R.R. engineers. Amongst other things, this will include a weekly precis of the technical development which has taken place on subjects in which they are interested. We shall be very interested to know the exact progress of all the various manufacturing sections of the Packard organisation, so that we can utilise the capacity if and when it is available, for sub-contract purposes. | ||
