| PRIVATE [Strikethrough: To. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} and] Mr. Walker. X519 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} from Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} Wor{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}12/T5.11.35. New Turbulent Cylinder Head for 20/25. This matter is of great importance, indeed, the question of the big bore 20/25 cannot be emphasised too much, we must get this into production at the earliest possible moment. Pattern Shop are going to be really busy in a few days on this cylinder head, and I should much appreciate a fortnightly report on the progress of this job. With the stopping of the Wraith Material, this should materially help to get the job quickly. Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} | ||
