In each case we told them pressure in our Research and Experimental Departments prevented our giving the time necessary for exhaustive tests. Attached is copy of a further communication from them on the same subject. Do you still agree we are not in a position to undertake the necessary tests? ROY.{Sir Henry Royce} ENCLOSURE.
