| Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from My/JW. My/JW/N3/139/B 8.1.23. RE. STANDARDISATION SHEET X.4419. ROAD SPRINGS MADE BY FIRTHS IN PLACE OF WOODHEADS. We return herewith copy of above standardisation sheet, but regret to say that we are not in a position to supply the required cost figures, owing to the fact that Firths have not yet given us any figures for the Springs they will supply. Roy{Sir Henry Royce}, however, is of the opinion that there will not be any saving in cost to us owing to this change. My/JW. | ||
