Hr AMMETERS. -------- X4622 The position in regard to ammeters is, that we buy regularly 50% of our requirements from each of the two following firms:- 1. The Weston Electric Company. 2. Elliott Instrument Company. We do not propose changing over entirely to either one or the other. As I understand the scheme, they are alternative sources of supply, until we have had a sufficiently long experience with the Elliott Instrument in the hands of customers, to justify us making a further step.
