| X1026 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/AL from ROY.{Sir Henry Royce} ROY{Sir Henry Royce}4/MG18.11.25. The 2 dozen A.C.Plugs you recently requisitioned were left here yesterday morning by the A.C.Sphinx Company's Representative, and have been passed to the Stores. He stated that these are the latest type, and made throughout in this Country, including the Porcelains. Incidentally he told us these Plugs are now standardised by the Daimler, and Humber Companies, etc., and are being sold to them at a ridiculous figure, actually 9d each. Please treat this as confidential. They evidently hope to recoup themselves by replacement sales. ROY.{Sir Henry Royce} R | ||
