Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rn. {Mr Robinson} 3/MJ.10.2.31.

Will you please return the attached coupling to The Hermetic Rubber Co. Ltd., with the following observations. -

"We have now run a number of your couplings and they have given a reasonably good life. They tend to fail, however, down the centre of the fabric and we are forwarding you a typical example under a separate cover".
