Exide Batteries
-----------------

As you are aware, Holgate examines in conjunction with Chlorides all batteries sent in for repair. He reports that <u>he</u> has noticed recently the negative plates in some of the batteries in a very hard and gritty state, one in particular 19 - TW. Hunt is a particularly bad example.

I am writing to you on this matter as possibly you may like to take it up with the Electrical Dept.
