PISTONS-CONTD.
R3/G3/4/19.

the oil working up to use two scraper rings with perforations, and the upper rings well away from the top of the piston.

All this, I understand, has been arranged for, and is in order, and that we can go ahead and manufacture as fast as we like, preferably making the pistons by die castings in Mr. Hall's alloy.
