THERMOMETERS.

I have been writing to BJ. to try and get a settlement in regard to introducing the thermometer with an electrical connection to light up a red lamp when the water reaches boiling point.

Apparently Sales are hesitating as to whether they would make the fitting an extra. I am going to say that they cannot have pieces modified, they will have to order a bulk number.

He further states that'the present position is, we are waiting to inspect the fitting as mentioned in C4/07/12/26 addressed to Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}'
