Elliott Ammeter - X.4622.

Hereto attached is copy of letter from Elliott Bros. Ltd. in reply to yours EFC1/T2.5.27. I am going to London tomorrow and shall take advantage of the opportunity to visit Elliott Bros' Works at Lewisham.

If you can let me have a reply to Elliott Bros' letter by 4 o'clock this afternoon, I will take same with me.

I have also received through By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} a definite complaint from Test Dept. regarding Elliott Ammeters and I intend to submit said complaint to Elliotts tomorrow. It would appear that 4% to 5% of the Elliott Ammeters read wrongly on chassis.

Ltr.att.
