X9946 Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}6/LG20.12.23. E.A.C. CAR FOR PN.{Mr Northey} We think it is essential that if we are going to let PN.{Mr Northey} have a 40/50 HP. car with a new engine, we ought at the same time to let R.{Sir Henry Royce} have a similar car. He has already asked for such a car to be sent to him at Le CanadelHenry Royce's French residence. We think it is likely to annoy him if he finds that PN.{Mr Northey} is running a car about and criticising it before he has had an opportunity of doing so. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
