| from ROY.{Sir Henry Royce} c. to Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X1583 ROY{Sir Henry Royce}6/MG24.7.24. Messrs. Wakefield advise an increase of no less than £1. 0. 0 per Barrel in CASTROL Oil over our previous Contract, due to rise in Castrol Oil. I do not know whether it is possible to economise our consumption of such oil - especially as Price's have recently given us a reduction of 10/- per Barrel on MOTORINE. ROY.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
