S/W......Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} ----- X7520. C6/C18.10.33 Re Hydraulic Control to Springs. ---------- Confirming our conversation yesterday, all who have tried this device appear to be extremely enthusiastic about it. It therefore becomes a question of how quickly we can introduce it. It would undoubtedly be wise for us to do so as quickly as we possibly can. I understand you are letting me know what the extra cost will be, on the 40/50 h.p. to start with. C. | ||
