X93 To PN.{Mr Northey} from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to BJ. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}1/LG6. 9.26. 8-EX CAR. We have not been able to fit to this car any scheme for reducing the explosions in the silencer or preventing the autovac affecting slow running. We are carrying on with the experiments and as soon as we have anything satisfactory we will let Sales have an opportunity of trying it. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
