| To Lp.{Mr Lappin} From Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} X728 Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}1/MJ.30.4.32. Re. Water Clips. Replying to Lp.{Mr Lappin}2/LAM.28.4.32. We have received the sample water clips. We think these are definitely inferior to our present standard 'Jubilee' clip, and we see no reason why we should make a change. The only point where they ought to score is that they ought to be cheaper, but as we are having no trouble whatever with our present clips we should not recommend a change.
