Re Radiator Tests.

As soon as convenient I want you to find out whether the round tube honeycomb radiator of Marstons is strong enough to bear our bumping test in the same way as the Orme-Evans square tube honeycomb radiator has done, and you might state in your note with reference to it, if our present standard radiator of the honeycomb pattern is bonded to the bottom tank, as I suggested some time ago.
