Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Wor. {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}

Wor {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} 9/T25.4.32.

I attach copy of a note I have received from EP. {G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} , as I notice you have nothad a copy.

Do you consider it is a serious matter for the Synchro Mesh 20/25 to weigh one hundredweight heavier than the previous 20/25, it does appear so to me because of the cost of material.

Perhaps you would like to investigate this and let me have your views later.
