SECRET. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} x4694 To E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} From Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re SpectreCodename for Phantom III. Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}12/E15.11.34 Referring to E.6/HP.8.11.34. The information given therein is very interesting and will be valuable to us later on. Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} has given me a note, as per attached copy, raising certain points which I should be glad if you would consider so that we can discuss them when I am next with you. His point about accommodation for tools under the bonnet is, I think, a good one and, if the description is not clear, I will explain it when I see you. Possibly you are already doing something in this direction but I am not quite sure. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} Enc. Copy of Cx{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager}9/KW.14.11.34 | ||
