To Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} x6553 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}2/KW.20.10.34. Bentley Front End Jellying. Replying to Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}2/E.17.10.34. Since we have no alternative cure to offer at the moment we agree that it would be worth while increasing the shock absorber loads on Major Maurice Wright's car. We only anticipate a small improvement. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
