Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.19/MA.13.4.33.

With reference to the samples of waxed paper submitted for test we find them to give very satisfactory test results and we consider same to be quite OK. for production.

We have been informed by a large condenser firm that plain paper of the correct grade wax impregnated after assembly on the coil and condenser is infinitely preferable in all respects to ordinary wax paper and we suggest that efforts be made to obtain samples of plain paper for experiment in this direction. Our previous attempts were not very successful.
