| Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} From Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} C. to C. WOR.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} X457 Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}1/MJ.1.4.30. RADIATOR JELLYING. X457 Y7250 We expect to have this week, a modified scheme of radiator mounting which will overcome complaints of radiator 'jellying'. In order to prove out this scheme, we should be very glad if you could arrange to let us have 1-WJ car at the end of this week. That is one of the worst cars we know of for this complaint, and would therefore like to prove it out on that car. The new scheme does not alter the appearance of the car in any way so there is no reason why it cannot be left on the car if you agree. We should require the car for about a week or ten days.
