| 1247 F.{Mr Friese} Dr. c. to Lav. c. to Em. c. to Rg.{Mr Rowledge} MB2/MN. 15.10.40. OUTSIDE PATENT SEARCHES. We send herewith lists of Patent Searches for the weeks ending 3rd October and for the current week. We have divided the printed copies of the Specifications into two groups - those relating to chassis we are sending to Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} and those relating to aero we are sending to E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} The two relating to alloys we are sending to Hl. We also include a fourth list marked "Additional" of published patents which are not among those names which we usually search. These are being sent, - and will in future be sent, - because the Patent Office has for the time being discontinued the issue of the usual weekly Abridgements. The additional patents are selected as being of possible interest. Copies of these can be obtained if desired. N.W. | ||
