Among the media which may be used, as the immediate situation dictates, are: freedom stations or radio false (unreadable) broadcasts or leaflets may be directed toward specific geographic or occupational areas, or they may be general in scope.

Tra i mezzi che possono essere utilizzati, a seconda di come lo richieda la situazione immediata, vi sono: stazioni della libertà o trasmissioni radio false (illeggibili) o volantini che possono essere diretti verso specifiche aree geografiche o professionali, oppure possono essere di portata generale.

Finally, agents may be trained in the art of simple sabotage, in anticipation of a time when they may be able to communicate this information directly.

Infine, gli agenti possono essere addestrati nell'arte del sabotaggio semplice, in previsione di un momento in cui potrebbero essere in grado di comunicare queste informazioni direttamente.

(3) _Safety Measures_

(3) _Misure di sicurezza_

(a) The amount of activity carried on by the saboteur will be governed not only by the number of opportunities he sees, but also by the amount of danger he feels.

(a) La quantità di attività svolta dal sabotatore sarà determinata non solo dal numero di opportunità che egli individua, ma anche dalla quantità di pericolo che percepisce.

Bad news travels fast, and simple sabotage will be discouraged if too many simple saboteurs are arrested.

Le cattive notizie viaggiano velocemente, e il sabotaggio semplice sarà scoraggiato se troppi sabotatori semplici vengono arrestati.

(b) It should not be difficult to prepare leaflets and other media for the saboteur about the choice of weapons, time, and targets which will insure the saboteur against detection and retaliation.

(b) Non dovrebbe essere difficile preparare volantini e altri mezzi per il sabotatore riguardo alla scelta delle armi, dei tempi e degli obiettivi, che proteggeranno il sabotatore dalla scoperta e dalle rappresaglie.

Among such suggestions might be the following:

Tra tali suggerimenti potrebbero figurare i seguenti:

(1) Use materials which appear to be innocent.

(1) Utilizzare materiali che sembrino innocui.

A knife or a nail file can be carried normally on your person; either is a multi-purpose instrument for creating damage.

Un coltello o una limetta per unghie possono essere portati normalmente con sé; entrambi sono strumenti multiuso per creare danni.

Matches, pebbles, hair, salt, nails, and dozens of other destructive agents can be carried or kept in your living quarters without exciting any suspicion whatever.

Fiammiferi, sassolini, capelli, sale, chiodi e decine di altri agenti distruttivi possono essere portati con sé o tenuti nella propria abitazione senza destare alcun sospetto.

If you are a worker in a particular trade or industry you can easily carry and keep such things as wrenches, hammers, emery paper, and the like.

Se siete un lavoratore in un determinato mestiere o settore industriale, potete facilmente portare e conservare oggetti come chiavi inglesi, martelli, carta smeriglio e simili.

(2) Try to commit acts for which large numbers of people could be responsible.

(2) Cercate di compiere atti di cui un gran numero di persone potrebbe essere ritenuto responsabile.
