The Shops are suggesting the possibility of making Autovacs here, if necessary under Licence. I am asking Wn to investigate the present Patent position.

Meantime would you kindly advise if you have any information regarding:-

(a) A modified Autovac type of apparatus or addition to the present Autovac I understood you to say R was producing.

(b) The progress of the Grav-Vac.

ROY.{Sir Henry Royce}
