Re: "Concordia" Wire.

We have examined the sample bobbin of copper wire for secondary windings, which we understand is a sample supplied by the Concordia people.

This appears to be alright, but we see no point in changing our present suppliers, as they are giving us every satisfaction. We would add that we very much stressed to the Concordia people, our need for good wire, and they were never able to give a reasonable supply.
