| -2- Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std.3/MH.{M. Huckerby}13.12.37. We would like RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} to estimate the nett saving by adopting this procedure. In order to facilitate this we have arranged for 5-25/30 matrices to be delivered untested and marked for the attention of the writer. We suggest that the extra cost of testing and repairing these in the above manner is obtained and balanced against the 5/- per matrix quoted, in order to decide whether we can save appreciably by adopting this procedure.
