| X. 7070 E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from R.{Sir Henry Royce} BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} c. to BJ. Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} RG.{Mr Rowledge} R6/M21.1.28. EAC.10 INDUCTION PORTS. Further to my memo. of this morning I do not think we shall ever require the 4 port arrangement, so that the bolts need not be distorted, but we will (burn our boats) on the 6 port induction scheme.
