HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} FROM R.{Sir Henry Royce} ORIGINAL R3/M19.9.28. Copy to BS.{A J. Barnes - Assistant Manager} " WOR.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} " BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} E.A.C. 10. X7770 X7090 The engine unit as tested seems quite good enough to go into a chassis, which is so urgently needed. Therefore there is no need for delay.
