| HS. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} FROM R. {Sir Henry Royce} C. to SG. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} BY. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} [struck through] C. to PN. {Mr Northey} P. 2. PETROL RESERVE. R1/M2.6.30. X7460 With reference to HS {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /RM {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 1/MJ31530., I quite agree that it will be the most suitable scheme to keep the reserve to fall back on the old reserve as well as the smaller reserve that I suggested in the autovac tank. I am looking at an early date however to using a petrol pump, in which case the matter will be somewhat simpler. yHR R. {Sir Henry Royce} | ||
