| Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} Y + S54. Wor{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}3/GR.{George Ratcliffe}29.12.32. 20/25 H.P. CHASSIS MATERIAL. At present rate of output to test, it is about time we considered the ordering of further material for the above. We allow 22 weeks from the word "go" from Sales to the first chassis going on test, which means to say that if we order additional material now, the first chassis will not go to test until about end of May next. Before recommending to Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} that we order further material, I would like your views as to what other improvements, if any, you have in mind for these extra chassis. As time is short for ordering further material will you kindly let me have your comments without delay please. Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} | ||
