Re Silencers.

CJ17/D151210 With reference to your memorandum R9/D151210, when will this improvement be introduced? What do you suggest should be done as regards cars already on the road which are too noisy in this respect. From the point of view of the reputation of the Company I am extremely anxious to correct these cars as quickly as possible. I shall be glad to know from you how this may be done.

Note 2 (black ink):
I have just arrived at the best solution which is the deflector and that is to put on the part as new Casting with 1/4" slot instead of the 1/2" which has been used lately.
I will get these moving.
