| X 2894 To Roy{Sir Henry Royce}, from EFC. cc EY. EFC2/T5.9.27. RE IGNITION CONTACT POINTS. Further to our EFC3/T5.3.27, will you kindly note that we are now making up a standardisation sheet for tungsten contact points. As no communication has been received by us as a result of the above note, we assume that the stock was at the time of our memo sufficient to carry us on up to the present, and possibly a little beyond. In any case it is now a definite ruling that no more platinum points should be ordered, as it is only now a question of getting the standardisation sheet duly signed up. x addressed to Wd.{Mr Wood/Mr Whitehead} copy to EY.
