| X.3398 PN {Mr Northey} 7/DW/17.12.20. S/W. {Sales / Derby Works} EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} Messrs. Peto & Radford, whom I have known for many years, are asking me how we are getting on with the results of the test batteries made for us by them. Would you be good enough to let me have a line by return, letting me know what is the position ? Do you find that the batteries made by this firm have any characteristics of a desirable nature which the Chloride batteries have not, and conversely, have you ascertained any weak features in the Peto & Radford batteries which the batteries we are now supplying, do not possess ?
