| -2- as experimental tyres, on which we should be interested to have your views after testing. If they are required, will you also inform us to whom they are to be sent. When we met at Derby it was also agreed that we would make some special high speed tyres capable of sustained speeds of 100 m.p.h. We have not been able to get one of the materials required for these tyres, and when you recently called at Fort Dunlop about tank tracks I understand it was agreed by you that these tyres were not required at present.
