GEARS. ----------------- We are of the opinion that we should try out the Schubert type angular thrust bearings, of which we obtained half a dozen from America in place of the new Departure type to our drawing G.52880 (Hoffmann No.5153). We have borrowed one of these bearings from your Stores to submit same to Hoffmanns for their report. This will be returned to you after Hoffmanns have done with it. BY.{R.W.
