The first contract to come to Great Britain ́in connection with the new League of Nations building at Geneva has been secured by Roneo Ltd. It is an order for the book stack of the new library The stack will be continuous through ten floors, will hold 1,000,000 volumes and will require 400-500 tons of British steel for its construction. The directors and staff of Roneo feel that this triumph is the crowning point of their efforts throughout a number of years to produce steel furniture and equipment of unimpeach able quality and embodying the latest discoveries in technical efficiency Roneo Steel.
