Dear Mr. Wolfe: Your December 27, 1968, request for a code number i accordance with subsection S4.3 of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109 and the national Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 1966 (15 U.S.C. 1421(1)) has been reviewed. Subsection S4.3 of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109 applies to passenger car tires, accordingly, the National Highway Safety Bureau has restricted the issuance of code numbers to manufacturers of these tires.; Since Carlisle Tire and Rubber Division does not engage in th manufacture of passenger car tires, and since the code number was requested in anticipation of future tire rule making, the issuance of a code number to the Carlisle Tire and Rubber Division would be premature and not in keeping with the intent of the regulations.; We have enclosed a Mailing List Questionnaire as promised. To assure flow of specialized mailings which may be of great importance to your particular organisation, please complete both sides with the correct information and return it to the Federal Highway Administration, National Highway Safety Bureau, Motor Vehicle Safety Performing Service, Washington, D.C. 20591. *Attention:* MVSPS Mailing List Questionnaire. If you require more than one form or have any inquiries concerning the form, Please direct your correspondence to the same address.; Sincerely, Roger H. Compton, Director, Office of Standard on Acciden Avoidance, Motor Vehicle Safety Performance Service;
