| S/W X1238 C1/C25.7.21. AUG F.C. Re Rapson Tyres. X1238 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}8/LG20.6.21 - BJ suggests that in view of the fact that we have been asked to extend our Guarantee to cover Rapson tyres, you might be able to get some tyres out of Rapson for testing purposes, so that we shall know in future whether we shall be able to say definitely that our Guarantee will or will not cover Rapson tyres, this, of course, depending upon the question of whether the tyres have any more deteriorating effect upon the chassis than the tyres that we supply as standard.
