Other military secrets were contain- ed in the dossier as well as detailed maps
The discovery was made when an AR.P. official, inspecting a new flat to which he is shortly moving with his wife, moved -a pile of magazines in a corner of one of the rooms.

"When I unearthed them at once thought I had stumbled upon a epy mystery, but after a talk with the landlady of the flat in which found the papers I learned that an Army officer formerly lived there. "It seems to be gross' neglect if an officer has left them about.
