Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Tsn3/AD17.10.29.

OIL LEAKS FROM BIJUR PUMPS.

We should be glad to receive three more
Bijur pumps, if convenient, for modification like
the first one you sent us. We are anxious to standardise
this modification and cannot do so without further test.

These pumps would not be scrapped.
