Gentlemen: Attention of Mr. S. H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} Grylls
Subject: Austenitic Cylinder Liners.

A copy of your letter of January 25 to Mr. Walter Brown has been handed to me for action on your request for high expansion cylinder liners.

The application of our X-Aloy material to austenitic steel has been made in a number of cases where the section is fairly heavy so that if you will send us a blueprint of your cylinder liner, we shall be glad to express an opinion and to quote you on making up samples for your test.

Thanking you for this opportunity to be of service,

Yours very truly,

WILCOX-RICH CORPORATION

A.{Mr Adams} D.{John DeLooze - Company Secretary} Gardner
