| 1091 Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 14/R. 27th January, 1938. Maurice Wilks, Esq., The Rover Company Ltd., New Meteor Works, C O V E N T R Y. Dear Wilks, When you come over on Tuesday next, could you tell me how you are getting on with the new door lock, about which you spoke to me when I was last at Coventry ? Also, could you let me know what the records are of the stellited silchrome valves in service ? You will remember that we never successfully stellited silchrome without getting cracks, but we believe that these cracks have not caused any trouble. Yours sincerely, | ||
