| X.7960. To Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rml/AD30.10.30. Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}'s Car. ---- Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} has lent us his 40/50 car to enable us to have another go at the suspension. It will be remembered that we altered the springing some little time ago but he did not think we had improved it very much. Whilst we have the car Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} has expressed a wish to try the new air silencer carburetter and we are therefore proposing to fit one to his car.
