TO BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} [HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} and RG.{Mr Rowledge} are crossed out] FROM R.{Sir Henry Royce} Copy to C.J. re. SILCHROME VALVES. [Handwritten: X4587 F4634] I thank BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} for his memo. re the above, and for pointing out that aero engine practice is not the same as chassis, which he thinks superior. I had not remembered that there was a difference. Will RG.{Mr Rowledge} see to this, and if any advantage can be obtained from BY's suggestion of making both like the chassis. R.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
