| To By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Les.{Ivan A. Leslie} c. RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Les.10/MH.{M. Huckerby}14.3.38. 1260 also 1306 MATERIAL OF ANTI-ROLL RODS. Ph.III F.88623 is S/CV. Wraith FW.873 is S/CV. Confirming this morning's conversation it is sugg- ested that we should change immediately to S/SLM. This will save approximately 2/2d. per chassis. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Les.{Ivan A.
