| H O 6. To Roy{Sir Henry Royce}/Ms. from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/AFM.{Anthony F. Martindale} c. Roy{Sir Henry Royce}/Les.{Ivan A. Leslie} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/AFM.{Anthony F. Martindale}5/MH.{M. Huckerby}22.4.39. B.V. BRAKE SPRINGS. Will you please order 12 springs similar to GB.4360 but with fixed ends instead of loose ends. The whole of the wire to be 15 S.W.G. (.072"). We presume Salters have a drawing already. The springs are wanted as soon as possible. If they can be assembled easily we may be able to save money on B.V. production. O/N. 52440. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/AFM.{Anthony F.
