| X 3642 To Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/AT. from Rd. e.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} to Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} c. to Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} Rd1/139/116.10.20. STANDARDISATION OF CHASSIS PART X NO. 3642. MODIFICATION TO SILENCER. DRAWING 2397. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/AT1/S4.10.20. We are afraid we will have to hold this job up for a little while, as the information given on the Standardisation Sheet is not sufficient to enable us to get out a cost. We have tried to get further information from various sources in regard to this matter, but have in each case been referred back to Mr. Day, and until Mr. Day returns to business, we are holding the job up.
