To EJJ. X3269 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}2/KW.25.5.34. The erection of the building outside the Test House which we have next to the production unit beds shuts out a great deal of light. We shall be glad if you can arrange for the windows to be washed and the inside of the Test House painted to improve matters. It would also be a good thing if the building could be painted white.
