| [Redacted] from Wor. {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} Copy to [Redacted] Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X4117 Wor {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} 6/T13.4.31. Capt. A. {Mr Adams} Thistlethwaite - 194-ON. I am sending attached a letter received from PN. {Mr Northey} dealing with Capt. Thistlethwaite's chassis 194-ON. which is self explanatory. Will you kindly get hold of this car when it arrives and try and make this owner completely satisfied. I think it had better go into the Production Dept. because the Experimental Dept. is getting very full up with Schneider Trophy and many other jobs. However, I should like you to work in conjunction with Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} , and you will also note that when you have finished the necessary work, PN. {Mr Northey} would like to try the car. In the very slack period that you are passing through, and also when it really is a production job, coupled of course with the recent work of the Experimental Dept., I think you are well able to deal with these matters. attd Wor. {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} | ||
