Re: Wakefield's OIL for the Gearbox.
Referring to Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}4/MJ.4.11.30, as it appears that Wakefield's are still unable to give us an oil that we can recommend for the gearbox, we consider that they should send a Technical Representative to the Works to discuss this matter with us.
Will you please arrange this with Messrs. Wakefield's as we are anxious to clear up this question without further delay.
BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer}
