| HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X7310 RECEIVED OCT 23 To Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} From Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} 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. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
