x 4553a (3) To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}20/KW.2.11.34. Brake Linings for 5-B-IV. We had a visit from Mr. Longley of Ferodo's yesterday, and he has persuaded us that their new B.Z. lining is superior to M.Z. from the point of view of /u variations after high temperatures. We hand you herewith a complete set of B.Z. linings and shall be glad if you will fit them to 5-B.IV, retaining of course the flush brass rivets.
