28th. Feb. 1929.

Messrs. The Dunlop Rubber Co.,
Fort Dunlop,
Erdington,
Birmingham.

Dear Sirs,

For the attention of Mr. Jones.
Buffer Blocks for 20 HP.

With reference to your letter of the 20th.inst. The writer has only just returned to the Works, hence the delay in dealing with this matter.

We rather think that it will be desirable to have the stiffer rating rubbers giving 400 lbs. at .2" deflection, and we are carrying out tests to confirm this point. We will let you have our results as soon as possible.

Yours faithfully,
