| --3-- Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} was asked to talk to Green and Robbins and recommend the minimum staff organisation he considered to be necessary to deal with the project, independant of Park, Ward's. Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} emphasized that Ward would be invaluable in producing any prototypes necessary. Also, if he kept in touch with what was being done it might enable him to reduce prices of his own productions. M.{Mr Moon / Mr Moore} PAULIN. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} asked what M.{Mr Moon / Mr Moore} Paulin was doing. M.{Mr Moon / Mr Moore} Paulin has been released from the French army and for the past month has been working for R.R. on designs and also on the completion of the "Corniche" bodies at present being manufactured for Sr. It was agreed that he could with advantage make suggestions for the front end appearance of the "Myth" and that Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} would supply him with the necessary particulars to enable him to submit some sketches. FURTHER CHASSIS CONFERENCES. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} said he would like a Chassis meeting every fortnight. Every alternate meeting would be devoted to design; the remainder to development and manufacture. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
