Description
A propaganda leaflet produced by the Far Eastern Liaison Office (FELO) during the Second World War. This leaflet is written in Japanese and was distributed to Melanesia and the Netherlands East Indies. The leaflet is accompanied by an English translation of the text. The message states that the Australian Army has enough food and medical supplies to spare and Japanese soldiers will be able to benefit from them if they surrender. The message urges the Japanese not to uselessly deprive themselves of the things they need.
