Childs}2/ML.6.12.40. 17 In the rough weather, such as we are getting at the moment, dirt and spots of water are being blown continuously onto my desk and the Memos., etc., on it are being spoilt. Since, it appears, that shortage of material is holding up the roofing of the Laboratory, can I have a roof put on the Office? The area to be covered is only 9 ft. x 6 ft.
