[rox. 5]

SIDNEY GORDON TOLD ME LAST NIGHT THAT THE BRITISH PRICE (AND I ASSUME HE MEANS GEC) FOR GAS TURBINES ON THE BASIS OF POUNDS

STERLING PER KILOWATT IS 30 PER CENT ABOVE THAT OF BROWN BOVERI

WHO LEAD THE FIELD.

2. I UNDERSTAND THAT JOHN BROWN ENGINEERING ARE OUT OF THE

RUNNING BECAUSE THEIR SETS DO NOT HAVE THE MINIMUM NOMINAL RATING

REQUIRED BY THE TENDER SPECIFICATION.

3. WEEDON IS REPORTING THE ABOVE TO GEC. HE TELLS ME IN CONFIDENCE

THAT GEC BELIEVE THAT THE BROWN BOVERI BID CONSTITUTES DUMPING

AND ARE WORKING ON THE SUPPLY OF PROOF TO THAT EFFECT.
