To BY from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re 20 HP Long Frames.
Copy to Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}

Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}5/E28.10.29

BY2/G25.10.29 is the first intimation that I have had that the standardisationsheet is waiting for me to sign.

Perhaps you can ascertain where it has been held up. Possibly it is with the Accounts Department in connection with the cost figures.

Your previous memo. to which mine was a reply merely referred to the fact that the standardisation sheet had not been completed.

If, as I understand, everybody has signed it except me, then it will be quite in order to work on the authority given in Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}11/E24.10.29 so far as the ordering of material is concerned.

This is in the Cost. Dept - we have asked them to get it through as quickly as possible
