Copy to Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} re P.II Easy and Silent Change.

SgE/E23.10.31

You will doubtless have been pleased to see R2/M22.10.31.

I hope that this will enable BY's Department to get straight ahead with work in connection with scaling up the 20/25 gearbox to suit the P.II.

It is not, I think, necessary for me again to stress the urgency as this has already been referred to in former memoranda and at our conferences.
