re Bentley/Air Silencer.

Referring to Wor. {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} T.30.3.36, we have today issued instructions to BY embodying the suggestions for reducing the cost of the Bentley air silencer, in accordance with Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Wym. {G. Harold Whyman - Experimental Manager} 14/KW.27.3.36.

It should be possible, therefore, for this to be adopted on production immediately it is cleared by the 10,000 miles test on B-56-BN. {W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington}

E {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} /Lid. {A. J. Lidsey}
