Painting of the exterior of
CLAN FOUNDRY.

"Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}" has now agreed that we shall go ahead with the painting of the exterior of the Clan Foundry. No attempt will be made at camouflage.

"Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}" has suggested a mat dull green.

I shall be glad if you will put the matter in hand as soon as possible.
