| 354 E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} from Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 16/R.20.1.37. PHANTOM III VALVE GEAR. The matter of costs still remains controversial, and though Ws. appeared fairly enthusiastic over the fitting of butting wedges RHC. {R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} appeared to be the reverse. As you will see from the attached note from Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Swdl. {Len H. Swindell} , we are trying them out, but surely it will be possible to produce some simpler scheme.
