| 1282 To Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /GB. from Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /ET. Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /ET.3/14.1.41. PETROL COUPONS. ------------------- Harold Peak, who at present gets an allowance of 12 gallons a month, asks whether this allowance could be raised to 14 gallons a month. It seems that when arrangements were made to grant him 12 gallons he was working only 6 days a week. As he is now working 7 days a week his mileage is raised from 442 to 515, and he would be glad to get another 2 gallons to cover it. Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /ET, | ||
