Scope and content

Discusses SZ's belief that smaller bombs are more effective per ton than larger bombs when casualties in dwelling houses are considered. Dewdney hopes that the investigation into L.C.C. flats will provide the necessary correction for the difference between German and English construction as the former is more like London flat construction.
