| To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X5810 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}3/LG26. 7.28. WHEELS FOR 20 HP. X.5810 X3725 We have sent round a standardisation sheet for 20" X 6" wheels for the 20 HP. We have assumed from R's wire ordering 12 sets that if they are fitted to the Trials cars we must be in a position to supply them to customers. The first set of these wheels, which Dunlops have promised for the end of this week, we are sending to Sales. We should like a further set for experimental purposes as soon as possible.
