Aluminium Drums.

Referring to the drum instructed in Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/AFM.{Anthony F. Martindale}25/JH.2.4.36.

This drum has not behaved as expected, the liner having come loose.

Will you please cut out the present liner and shrink another Brimol liner in with .025" interference. The liner should be carefully measured on four diameters.

This is wanted as soon as possible.

Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/A.F.M.
