Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}3/R.12.7.37.

3-BU-104.

With reference to Owner's Complaint Report No.W.12 of July 9th, this customer evidently uses his car under the worst possible conditions for petrol supply failure. We would recommend having a pump in the frame. Supplies will be available before the end of the month.
