| Content: | This item is a Japanese-language propaganda leaflet produced by the Far Eastern Liaison Office. An English translation of the text is provided. A map of Japanese-occupied territories is printed on one side with red splashes indicating the positions air-raided by the Allies. The message warns that the scale of air-bombing will increase substantially in the near future. It also mentions the surrender of Italy and the destruction of German main cities. The message emphasises the great production capacity of the US war industry and states that Japan has already been encircled by the superior Allied air power. 50,000 of them were printed. |
