Re Chassis No. B.10.DG. Thompson.

With reference to your Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}9/KW.24.4.35., I note this car will be coming to Park Ward's Works next week for attention to the body.

I have spoken to Mr. Ward re the noise insulation scheme and he is writing you regarding this.

With regard to your last paragraph re the boom at 30 m.p.h., I will write to you in the course of a post or so when we have had an opportunity of trying this exhaust end on a car.

J.E.I.
