Content: This item is a Japanese-language propaganda leaflet produced by the Far Eastern Liaison Office. An English translation of the text is attached. It shows several photos of American factories which produce military arms.

It suggests that Japanese soldiers check the information with those who have been to the United States if they are in doubt.
