Mr. H.E. Price,
Dunlop Rubber Co.,
Fort Dunlop,
Erdington,
BIRMINGHAM.

Dear Sir,

Thank you for your letter, HEP/HM.{Capt. W. Hallam - Head Repairs}588D informing us that the set of 5.00 x 18 wheels which were sent to you for knurling treatment will be back on Friday next.

Would you at the same time, however, send a man along to inject punctureless solution into each tube. Mr. H.E. Symons has used this solution on his two previous runs and would like it done in this case.

Yours faithfully,

For ROLLS-ROYCE LTD.
