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.
