With reference to your H3/TB11.7.24, the question of boiling under extreme conditions is a matter which we have ourselves experienced, and which we have put into the hands of the Experimental Dept. and we understand is now having their attention experimentally. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} appreciates this point and we understand he is now in London making special comparative tests, and have no doubt he will be able to supply you with full particulars of what prospects there are of overcoming this trouble if you will discuss the matter with him.
