| WST Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. 6017 BY.16/J.7.5.35. IGNITION COILS. With reference to your memo Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.3/MA.4.5.35, in regard to the possible use of "Seekay" wax for the above purpose, we are interested to note the results you have so far obtained with this material. We would like to point out that also we have been in touch with the Imperial Chemical Industries, with regard to this matter and requested them to send their technical representative over in order to go into this matter more fully and our letter to them was written on 11th April last. Unfortunately, their technical representative who deals with this particular matter was away from business on account of illness and I.C.I. have promised to let us know as soon as he is available. We will notify you when an appointment has definite been made. BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} [Handwritten Signature] | ||
