| - 2 - E {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} /Lid. {A. J. Lidsey} 1/HP.7.3.34. ------------------- illumination by half is negligible. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Wst confirms this and states that if the current is reduced by one half the illumination disappears to a thin red glow. The complications and cost of the scheme does not therefore appear to be justified by the result. E {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} /Lid. {A. J. Lidsey} | ||
