Wor {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} 11/W7/4/24.

I have your note Roy {Mr H. Royce - Buyer} 10/MG4/4/24, proposing that in view of EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 's report we change from the Weston ammeter, an American production, to the Elliott ammeter, an English production

I should not agree until I had a report from Mr. Hives saying that he had run it 10,000 miles, and that Mr.Royce had approved of doing so.
