To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from ROY.{Sir Henry Royce} ROY{Sir Henry Royce}2/MG21.6.32 H.R.CROWN VALVE STEEL May we assume from BY1/G8.6.32 that the Experimental Shop are now making arrangements to absorb the Steel in question for Inlet Valves on certain of our products? Kindly confirm, or otherwise, as we are particularly anxious to absorb this Steel in current production stocks if satisfactory, and so avoid the big loss entailed by disposing of same as scrap unless absolutely essential.
