| Wd. {Mr Wood / Mr Whitehead} (struck through) c to Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X53 EP {G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} /T5/F29.7.20. A.T. Re - National Benzole. Replying to your memo Wd {Mr Wood / Mr Whitehead} 7/N28.7.20 we should like to point out that it is not a question of not being able to utilise the quantity of Benzole required but a question of not being able to obtain Benzole in sufficient quantities or to obtain sufficiently regular deliveries. As a matter of fact we could do with increasing our requirements of Benzole to ~~200~~ 1000 gallons per fortnight. The great thing is we must have regular supplies if the Benzole is going to be of any use to us. EP. {G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} | ||
