| +760 To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re Fisher Scheme of Ventilation. I thought you would be interested to see the attached memo. which I recently wrote to LHS{Lord Herbert Scott} on this subject. This is the direct result of my having used the scheme on 104-MY for several months. I find that my opinion agrees with that of other people who have had definite experience with it. I am sending you a copy of this memo. because you will remember that you personally were very keen on this scheme and forecast its standardisation on all motor-cars within a short period. We have come to the conclusion that it is another instance of American 'ballyhoo'. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} Enc. Copy of Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}5/E2.4.35 | ||
