| To Whr.{Mr Wheeler} From Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to Hm.{Capt. W. Hallam - Head Repairs} (Paris). X7120 Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}10/MJ.19.12.32. Re: 19-EX. Car. We are arranging for 19-EX. car to leave for France on January 9th. It has already been arranged with Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} that we shall take advantage of this car whilst it is out there to try out one or two new features. For this reason we should like to send an experimental man with it so that when the car is not being used for demonstration work he can carry out experimental tests. We should be glad if you will arrange to take out the necessary R.A.C. papers. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
