The two thermostat springs which were sent to N. have been, or are being, fitted to the two trials cars, 48-MS and 46-MS. We want two further similar springs to fit to the thermostats of GAU-14 (see Hd{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy}/Lid.{A. J. Lidsey}6/MJ17.11.32.) and to GKT-22. The springs should be sent to N. without delay because the only opportunity of fitting one to GAU-14 will be when it passes through London on Tuesday evening next on its way to St.{Capt. P. R.
