Dear Mr. Gent,

The Factories Bill was introduced into the

House of Commons on Friday last and will be issued to-morrow,

so that at long last I am able to reply to your letter

(53772/36) of 27th October, 1936, and to forward copies of

the Clause in the Bill dealing with the precautions in regard

to water-sealed gasholders. I have recently had a personal

letter from Mr. Charlton, and am also forwarding a copy of

the Clause to him direct.

Yours sincerely,

4. Stevenson Layer
