| OyR - G 25620 June 25, 1920 To: Rolls-Royce Ltd. - 5 makes it not only safer but easier to build into a wire wheel. Do you not think that some device on the lines of the above (which undoubtedly they would put on for us for two or three dollars a rim) added to the Firestone rim, would make a combination about which we should have no fears? Any out of balance could be compensated by counter- weights. COPY Oy. CC Mr. Belnap Mr. Hedin Mr. Manning | ||
