F.{Mr Friese} Blackith, Esq. -2- 2.12.38.

not like this name, perhaps you might get him to suggest something to which he and High Duty Alloys agree, and I do not think we shall object to anything within reason.

I am still hoping that you will arrange a meet-ing with DeHavillands, because it seems a shame that we should miss the big aircraft expansion with this alloy. I have written to Fedden, as per the attached letter, regard-ing his big-end bush.

Yours sincerely,
