| To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} By and Hi. X2066 Wor{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}3/T.30.12.29. Some months ago we arranged that we should take steps to find other oils beside Whitmore's Compound for our Hypoid Axles. I believe it was arranged that we should get two or three oil people, such as Wakefield's and Price's, to prepare oils. I shall be glad to know what progress has been made, as it seems to me the matter is really urgent. Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} | ||
