buted by Communists in Tokyo on 5 September. As a retaliatory
measure, CIA prepared leaflets that closely resembled them in form

obvious and nauseating to the Japanese. The new leaflets were
distributed under cover of darkness in Tokyo and beach resort areas.
The Chinese Nationalist Air Force dropped 10,000 leaflets in
a CIA-directed operation on 4 September over Shihma in southern
Fukien province, the area against which..TgNTACLE NO.1 of guerrilla
warfare operation OCTOPUS is directed..:' The Chinese Communists have
been reported rushing collectors to gather the leaflets dropped and
issuing orders to the people not to read them.

to counteract the Communists-dominated rally of the World Federation
of Democratic Youth.
