H3 n250. X 250. x1-50. x2-50 66. To Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} Copy to Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} re Overheating. Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}/E27.10.30 Thanks for WorB/T25.10.30. I am pleased to note that all agree that we can without risk proceed to make radiator tubes embodying the small modification of indents and that there should be no risk whatsoever. I thoroughly agree to this being put into force straight away. I realise that a number of radiators are built which will have to be used up but the main thing is to stop more being built.
