Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} [Stamp: OCT] Referring to DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}4/M20.10.28. and EV{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}3/18.10.28. in both of which suggestions are made that prints are to be supplied to America of certain WW. designs in connection with the SS.{S. Smith} chassis. Will you please note that we have received instructions from BJ. that no prints in connection with the SS.{S. Smith} proposals are to be supplied, and that no copies of letters dealing with SS.{S. Smith} drawings should therefore be despatched to OY. from WW. We are therefore not at liberty to despatch the prints in question. BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} By | ||
