Attached copy of a letter from Mr. Paull of the English Dunlop Company is interesting. His insistence on narrower rims resulted in adoption of a narrower series of D.C. rims than originally contemplated, the American series being now only slightly wider than the Dunlop.

We are now preparing to order trial equipment of 20" D.C. wire wheels and 7.00-20 tires.

Very truly yours,

Maurice Olley
