| To Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} c. Wer. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} Rx200 Lt. Smith E.1/HP.12.4.35. Let me know when details of these are completed Km 20/25 and Bentley Engine Breathers. In connection with the new type induced flow breathers which we show on LeC.4438 and LeC.4460 for the 20/25 and Bentley chassis respectively, we should like it established before the schemes get very far whether there is much panting through the breather pipe and any tendency to draw dust and dirt into the engine.
