Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} OCT 5 1920 RECEIVED In reply to your Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}3/LG2.10.20. re Dunlop Wire Wheels with demountable Rims, I am quite willing to try these Wheels etc., on my open trials car, provided that you consider the device generally suitable, and not likely to bring discredit to the Company's reputation, when giving a demonstration run. On Monday I purpose going to Yorkshire, in connection with a number of enquiries there. The Wheels might be fitted before that time. P.R.N.
