S/W Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} C12/C19.5.33 RATTLES IN THE TRANSMISSION. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}3/KT9.5.33 I do not know whether you are expecting a reply to the last paragraph of your memo, but our position is that we have no car at present that is suffering from this complaint. As a matter of fact this is not a general complaint from the Public, but no doubt you are well aware of it. Do you wish us to look out for a car for you? C. | ||
