Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}21/KW27.6.35. -------- I note that Experimental have not yet tried this out but that you are getting some through today; and that in the meantime you think this should not be fitted to customers' cars. The one you sent through for Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}'s car has already been fitted to a customer's car (Mr.Watts) and we have also fitted two temporary filters to two other cars, viz. Major Monro and Roberts. Major Monro's car has been running for some time now and he appears to be very happy with it and to have had no recurrence of the flooding. Handwritten bottom (in red): (1) How many sets went away with incorrect drilling. (2) Have we circulated standardisation sheet. Typed right margin: C. | ||
