This column is for Name of Person addressed. DATE. -2- The arrangement on the particular car run by Mr Nadin was not mentioned at the meeting, with the result that a valid doubt as to the efficiency of the ventilation scheme appeared to exist. The Experimental Dept. are at present engaged upon further tests of chassis 1948 which is fitted with the final scheme and although these tests are incomplete I understand that the results obtained are reassuring and comparable with the first tests. Under these circumstances do you advise us to proceed with the experiments with the wire mat which you refer to ? ThBarington This sheet must be filed with the correspondence to which it refers. | ||
