| Wor{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}/Mcr11/L22714. Re Over-heating of Floorboards. X.819 Mr Hives. 22-7-14. With reference to Mr Royce's memo R15/P 17.7.14, Mr Johnson wishes you to report how you think advantage might be taken of the knowledge we have gained in the past on the above subject. As you are aware we have the results of a large number of experiments and tests that have been carried out in the past and we think that if you were to review these you might immediately be able to issue a report covering the whole position. This is apparently what Mr Johnson wishes you to do. p. Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} | ||
