To Hv. from Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re Experimental Bodies. Sg {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} 5/E2.6.37
Copy to Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} H.Rn. {Mr Robinson} Hn. {F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders}

Referring to your letter to Park Ward's of June 1st, in view of Sg {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} 20/H20.5.37 and Rn. {Mr Robinson} 12/AP.24.5.37 I am wondering why it took so long to stop Park Ward overtime. Would you please let me know.

If I had been asked on the 14th May, i.e. the day you told them to work overtime, I should have given you the same answer as I gave on the 20th.

Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}
