| x 200 a 25, Rue Gide, Levallois-Perret. Seine. France. GWH {George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} /5/JAB. 27th August 1936. To. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Attention Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Les. 6. B. IV. Your memo Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Les.17/KW.21.8.36. received. It is evident that my memo of the 19th August has misread. A coiled copper pipe is already fitted to the damper unit control but the union on the control unit is a spherical joint similar to all oil pipes. We require a union to suit the olive joint. --------- G.W.H. | ||
