| Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} from Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} Wor{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}9/R.7.1.35. Lead Bronze Bearings for Bentley Cars. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}14/KW4.1.35. This memo is not clear to me in so far as what we are going to do for Paris is concerned. It was arranged in the last Conference Minutes that six sets of these bearings should be prepared, and four of these be sent to Paris. Are you now suggesting that we should not send these lead bronze bearings to Paris, together with the new larger oil pumps ? If it is still decided to send lead bronze bearings and larger oil pumps to Paris, when are these likely to be ready please ? Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} | ||
