To Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} From Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c.c. to Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}2/WJ.28.8.31. Attached herewith copy of a note received from Oy. which ma' be of interest, especially his comments on Phantom 11. It is satisfactory to hear that he considers the springing good because he is a very good critic and has spent most of his time, since he has been at Cadillac's, on suspension problems. The P2 car which Oy. refers to is fitted with our low rating springs. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
