| To O.O. from EFC. c. to Dispatch Stores, c. to Shipping Office. EFC4/AT12.2.19. X.3035.-RE SOLDERING IRON. We are sending into the Dispatch Stores one electrical soldering iron from the Exptl. Dept., which has broken down and requires repair. Will the Shipping Office kindly instruct the Stores to return this to the General Electric Co. for that purpose. This soldering iron has been in constant use ever since we received it nearly a year ago now, and is really indispensable in our Exptl Shed as we have no gas. Will therefore, the O.O. kindly order up another soldering iron of this type (H3866) to be sent by return so that we shall have one to be going with. Will the Stores kindly note that on the return of either the new or the old iron this should be sent to the Exptl. Shed. EFC. | ||
