| Expl: Dept: 48005 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}2/LG. 11th. Jan. 1928. Messrs. The Dunlop Rubber Co., Fort Dunlop, Erdington, Birmingham. Dear Sirs, For the attention of Mr. Bond. We thank you for your letter of the 10th. inst. We think that vthe rubber block which will prove the most satisfactory for our purpose is No.4 as this is the most flexible and you consider that it is a better quality than No.3. We may however change our mind when we have carried out further extended tests. We shall require 2 doz. for experimental purposes and will arrange to send you our official order in due course. Yours faithfully, | ||
