With reference to the thermostats offered to us by the Fulton Sylphon Company, which would have only 3/8" stroke instead of 1/2" as required by thedesign, the matter has been taken up with WW. and they suggest that we order the Sylphon Tubes together with the end pieces spun in, and they will send us further instructions in regard to making the parts suitable for our requirements. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} We have requested the Order Office to cable instruction to the Fulton Sylphon Company to supply these parts. In the mean-time we cannot proceed further until we hear from WW. NOV 30 1929 RECEIVED BY/Cgh.{W Clough} | ||
