| Roy. {Sir Henry Royce} from Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X3745 Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 2/LG3.1.23. SPRING GAITERS. With reference to your Roy {Sir Henry Royce} 5/MG29.12.22. We did not know the price of the Wefco and Jeavons Gaiters when we standardised the "Wefco". We understood from you at the time that you were satisfied with the reduction in the price you had obtained from the Wefco people. We realised that that price was considerably lower than what we had been paying for Jeavons Gaiters. Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
