To HPS. {Horace Percy Smith - Experimental Factory Mgr} from Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /FWK.

Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /FWK.8/JH.19.5.39.

LEAF SPRINGS.

Will you please shot blast and re-cadmium plate the two top leaves of the springs which we will supply to you. Shot blasting is only necessary on the tension side of the leaf - that is the uppermost side. When you have done this will you please build up the springs again and fit them to 8.B.V.

Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /FWK.
