Your esteemed No.24 of 1943, dated 16th March 1943 has
been recieved and I have noted what you have said therein.
I thank you very much for what you have said about your
endorsing our requirements and the requirements of our
country of tyres. I appreciate from you such help and
good cooperation for obtaining «EEt the urgent and
indispehsible requirements. As regards what you have said
that you asked the Government of India to allow the required
parts for our four cars to which you referred, which is
osbcure to us as regards the kind of c^rs, and your purpose
is not clear to us. You mentioned the four cars as follows
"Pick up" No.VS of 1940
Truck of 2 tons Model 917 T
2 Buick cars (40-90L) . ,
You wrote as above and I do not/what is your purpose, because
our cars are not as mentioned by you. They are as mentioned
