| Y3806 To Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} Central Lubrication. Sg {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} 9/E1.5.29 In confirmation of telephone message and referring to your Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Gyl/LG27.4.29, would you let me know how many points our lubrication scheme has got that you have to lubricate from/because the memo. in question is suggesting we only/ought to have one point, whereas Mr.Robtes, who has just come back from America, tells me that they are all giving up the one-shot over there as they have come to the conclusion that pipes running all over the chassis are an impossible proposition and they are going in for 5 or 4 points, which is what I thought we were doing.
