asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Works whether he can give any information in connection with the installation of a Lamp-son tube, at their branch office, Great Westminster House, Horseferry Road; and what will be the cost of doing that and other work in the same branch?

This building is occupied by a large Ministry of Supply staff and to expedite business and save man-power, it was recently decided to instal a Lamson pneumatic tube system and to serve each of the six floors, at an estimated cost of £1,850. The only other work to be done is the replacement of window glass.

Is a Lampson tube well thought of?
