From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Les.{Ivan A. Leslie}

γ 3035.
Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Les.13/MJ.14.12.32.

Attached herewith copy of a letter we have
sent to the British Goodrich Rubber Co. of Burton-on-Trent.

Will you please issue an order to cover the 36
rubber rings to Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}793.

When Mr. Skellon was here yesterday, we arranged
for him to supply some sample rubbers consisting of approx. 6
grades. This is in order that we may in future know exactly
what grade of rubber each new item will be made from.

We have asked for four samples of each grade to
be made in the mould used for F.58133. Each rubber is to have
a reference No. moulded on to it.

Will you please issue an order to cover these sample
rubber blocks.

Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/I.A.Leslie.
