W/S. To C. from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 1263 Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}2/AP.4.12.36. PETROL PUMPS. Thank you for C.1/C.27.11.36. We obtained one of the Autoflux pumps which you mention about three years ago from Paris. It is certainly a very good job. Unfortunately, it is too small to give sufficient delivery for the Phantom III, furthermore, it is not manufactured in this country. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
