| Private To. Mr. Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Wor. {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} Wor {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} /T25.8.33. I attach copy of letter I have received from C. reference C15/D24.8.33. I shall be glad if you will consider this because it is my intention next week to ask you to attend a conference to see what can be done. Also I refer you to EV {Ivan Evernden - coachwork} 1/IH22.8.33, which deals with the same subject. I am sure you will all agree that it is far better, seeing that many people are dissatisfied with the appearance of the 3 1/2 Litre that we should tackle it vigorously now rather than wait until the car is in the hands of the customer. Perhaps E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} can suggest some line of attack prior to the conference. Also does he think we ought to have C., Bn. {W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} and any-one else present at the conference? Wor. {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} Attd copy C15/D24.8.33. | ||
