Dr. Forrest C. Allen,

Lawrence, “anses.

Dear Doctor:

Honestly, I doubt if even the shipyards could supply "gunboats"
in the size which you require. We have nothing as large as lo,
and there isn't a Chinaman's chance to get them made on special
order under present manufacturing restrictions.

We do have a few pairs of size 14, so about the best suggestion

I can make is that you get a pair of these for “Suitcase Simpson"
and convert them to the popular toeless style instead of the old-
fashioned toe lace style!

Yours for victory,
LOWE & CAMPBELL
