DUNLOP TYRES - SEASON 1938/9

I have referred to G. {Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} the "Development Concession" rebate, payable quarterly, Mr. Shankland wishes to incorporate in the Tyre contract, and G. {Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} states he can make the necessary arrangements.

As far as Wire Wheels and Hubs are concerned, Les. {Ivan A. Leslie} is aware of the 5% reduction and in agreement.

I am accordingly concluding arrangements with the Dunlop Co. but reminding Mr. Shankland that in his letter to you re Tyres, he made no mention of such quarterly rebate scheme.

ROY. {Mr H. Royce - Buyer}
