With the maintenance — apart from the rule about booms — of the extension.

The latter case is not quite in line with that of ... on all ...

Messrs. Samuel ... have insisted on it.

The site is on the island, and War Office permission was required for it. The War Office more stringent kind of boom, and the company's engineers designed one which was accepted as adequate.

In Messrs. Samuel's case was given a certain amount of discretion, and I do think it would be wise now to insist on a surrounding boom in that case.

I should be inclined to leave the matter entirely alone.
