| To EX. from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to EFC. X.3888 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}2/LG29.6.20. X.3888 CHASSIS - PETROL TANK. With reference to your memo BY4/P29.6.20 we are quite in agreement with the above but so far we have received no design for this tank. The tank we are testing is one with a side filler only; it has not the reserved apartment neither has it the proper gauge for registering the quantity of petrol in the tank. I suggest that you send a copy of your memo to Mr. Day in order to remind him of the urgency of this matter. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} [STAMP] E G JUN 30 RECEIVED | ||
