Sidgreaves - MD}4/D29.7.30. X.7772. X.7380. Re: Subframes for R.R.A.I. Arising out of your DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}4/M22.7.30 I have received a memorandum from Oy. as per attached copy. I think the best way is to leave this matter alone for the time being, and I have already asked Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}, when he is in America with the Second Experimental Car, to raise the matter and ascertain exactly what they are doing; in other words, endeavour to satisfy himself on our behalf that the result of what they are doing will be satisfactory.
