| F A121 D.R. CO. LTD. CONTINUATION SHEET No. 19 - 2 - tests such as we have already been able to make on other sizes, indicate that this low pressure proposition can be carried too far, tending to produce an impression of sluggishness, or lack of quick response in the drive. We shall a little later on be able to give you some data on the power consumption, also at lower pressures, as compared with more normal pressures. Yours faithfully, FOR THE DUNLOP RUBBER CO. LTD.
