| -2- Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std.11 JH.18.2.38. We suggest that before and while the Bentley 50 radiator is being drawn the design dept. section dealing with same should discuss with Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std. all the proposals for cost reduction available, including suggestions already made and Messrs. Marstons Bentley III scheme, so that everyone agrees that the completed design represents the most inexpensive radiator which can be made for the duties which it has to perform. In this way the numerous modifications to reduce cost in the case of Bentley III and Wraith radiators will be available. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std. | ||
