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}
