| (2) (6) PIVOT THRUST WASHERS CHANGE FROM FIBER TO GENELITE (ALT. 3210/A.{Mr Adams}) Mr. Royce sees no objection to trying genelite for the pivot thrust washers, and Mr. Hives should test. ---------- We think the sketches and blue prints should go to Derby for their information as regards the alterations, so we have sent them there, and are returning to you CJ's copies of the letters with this memo.
