| To O.O. from EFC. c. to Shipping Office. X.3424 EFC1/T31.3.20. X.3362 - LIGHTING INSTALLATION AT W.W. X 3424 We have handed into the O.O. 15 miniature switches received for Mr. Royce's lighting installation. We have a wire from Mr. Royce this morning to the effect that he would like these finished with the Lucas black finish similar to sample also handed in. Would O.O. kindly put this work in hand with Messrs. Lucas, which work should be charged to Mr. Royce's a/c. Kindly note that these switches are very urgently required as Mr. Royce has a man working on the job at the moment. There will be no need for the switches to be submitted to us as we have seen the sample and know what Lucas' can do, therefore, if it could be arranged for them to be despatched from Messrs. Lucas directly to Mr. Royce, this would save time. EFC. | ||
