To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from BJ. BJ2/H24.11.23. [Handwritten and underlined]: Y3066 [Underlined]: STANDARDISATION SHEETS. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}2/LG22.11.23. There is evidently some mysterious delay that takes place, as certainly 99% of these sheets are signed by G.J. and me the same morning they are placed on our desks. In future please attach a memo. [handwritten insertion: to each] showing the date and time each is sent from your desk. This will be stamped on receipt here and I shall mark each sheet when it is signed and returned to you. B.J.
