| To E/Hdy.{William Hardy} c. to By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} 312 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/NRC.{N. R. Chandler}19/JH.6.7.37. Phantom III Clutch Pedal. With further reference to Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/NRC.{N. R. Chandler}2/JH.5.7.36. in view of the fact that there are some 300 forgings for the clutch pedal already in existance, we agree to forgo the suggested increase in radius from 1.300 to 1.400, as although it might be desirable if readily obtainable, it is not essential.
