15th. May, 1939.

Messrs. Dunlop Rubber Co. Ltd.,
Fort Dunlop,
Erdington,
BIRMINGHAM.

For the attention of Mr. H.E.Price.

Dear Sirs,

Thank you for your letter reference HEP/HM. {Capt. W. Hallam - Head Repairs} 234 of May 13th. We have not yet decided whether we are going to use outer wheel discs only, and until we make such a decision do not think we need discuss the fixing of the rubber strips from a production point of view. As soon as we have made up our minds on this point we will let you know.

Yours faithfully,
for ROLLS-ROYCE LTD.
