re EAC.7.
R4/M31/8/26:
We have had a talk about the position of this chassis, and we are finding out the position of every detail, and we shall urge every piece of material and work in machines, so that this chassis shall be on the road at the earliest possible date.
We have heaps of capacity in our own Works, and need no assistance from outside, indeed it would delay the job to get any help outside.
We agree that the job is, in the main, right up against us, but we promise a very quick job, and will advise you from time to time how we are going on.
