Query regarding a discrepancy in the completion date marked on Standardisation Sheet No.P.12.

To Gry. {Shadwell Grylls} from Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} Standardisation Sheets. Sg {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} 13/E26.1.38

As a matter of curiosity would you let me have a reply on the following point: Take Sheet No.P.12. Issued on the 23.11.37 as a sample. I thought that, when these were signed by Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} and myself, the job was completed.

For some reason on which I am not clear this has marked at the top 'Completed 25.1.38' and I should like to understand the real reason for this. I should have thought that the completion date was the 17th.

My reason for querying it is that I do not know whether something else has been typed on it since it was signed.
