I am anxious that G.{Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} Farmer should be granted the necessary facilities for using his own private car whilst on the Company's service. This man is frequently occupied on outside Aero Engine Testing where the use of a car is of great assistance. If you will kindly grant permission for this, I will arrange to send Farmer to D/L. to make the necessary arrangements respecting insurance etc. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
