| By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from Wd.{Mr Wood/Mr Whitehead} c. to Hcr. c. to EH. c. to OG/EH. x.767 Orme, Evans & Co. Limited. Yesterday we had a visit from Mr. Bloor, representative of this firm. He explained that he had been sent here by Mr. H.B. Hall to ascertain whether we were now in a position to discuss the supply of radiators for our 40/50 chassis as said gentleman wished to be afforded an opportunity of discussing radiators with us. Seeing that these makers have supplied to us by far the greater proportion of all the radiators we have fitted on cars, I think it only fair that they should be afforded the same opportunity as other makers such as Marstons of submitting to us radiators for testing. If you are of the same opinion, I would suggest that they be given an order for radiators to be subjected to test and I shall be glad if you will indicate exactly the arrangement desired.
