Re: "Dunlop" well based tyres.

Your wire to hand this morning,

reading:-

ARE SIX POINT SEVEN FIVE BALLOON TYRES TRACTION TREAD AS RECENTLY FITTED TWELVE EX STILL OBTAINABLE IN PARIS

to which we replied:-

YES.

We have made enquiries from the Dunlop people in Paris, who informed us that although they have no actual stock of these particular tyres, they are in a position to give delivery of same with a delay of about eight days.
