Re: S.S. SPRINGS.

I think it is very urgent that we have a Conference early next week to discuss the method of making these springs. You will remember you wrote me and said you thought the present scheme would be successful, and though I think there is much in what you say, we want to cut expenses.

I have had a preliminary talk with By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} and I think that we should now get together and settle a policy.
