-----------------------

We thank you for your Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/FJH.{Fred J. Hardy - Chief Dev. Engineer}8/MH.{M. Huckerby}IO.II.38 and note your remarks regarding the rims, under the circumstances I have informed Messrs. Michelin it will now not be necessary to supply the 5 special rims originally mentioned as the complete wheels will suffice.
