X4038 To. Ps. c. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. W/S. BY/Mtn12/N.4.12.29. Re: Hobson Telegauge. Referring to your memo Ps3/RJ.30.11.29, in regard to the Hobson Telegauge being fitted with a bevelled glass, we have examined an instrument but consider the glass is/too small to have a bevel, as in our opinion the readings with a bevel would not be distinct with the instrument in its present position on the instrument board.
