| Copy. EVL/1/17.12.31. cont'd.{John DeLooze - Company Secretary} In this connection we would be glad to receive from you the shape of the section of the shutter which you can obtain economically, and also the latest information as to whether it is still thought desirable to go to the loose shell design, now that the Works have had a fairly long experience with stainless steel. | ||
