| x462 INDIA TYRE & RUBBER COMPANY, LTD. TELEPHONES: PAISLEY 4141/5. TELEGRAMS: INDIAOWL, RENFREW. INCHINNAN SCOTLAND OUR REF. PW/IK. YOUR REF. 15th March, 1935. W.A. Robotham, Esq., Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ltd., DERBY. Dear Mr. Robotham, Answering your letter of 14th March, we are pleased to note that you are agreeable to having the new Ezemount valve fitting on the Bentley tyres in future. We will send you particulars of the weights of our Extra Low Pressure tyres in the immediate future. I have a memo from Lord Rothes and he mentions that you enquired whether the tyres which we sent you for test were of the new or the old type. They are of the new type, but since sending you these tyres, we have made a very slight modification in the shoulder button, but this modification may be disregarded so far as the test goes. Yours faithfully, INDIA TYRE & RUBBER COMPANY LIMITED. Paul Worth Works Manager. | ||
