 \chapter{Specific Suggestions for Simple Sabotage}
 
@@ -347,8 +383,188 @@ elaborated and expanded.
 
 \section{Buildings}
 
+Warehouses, barracks, offices, hotels, and factory buildings
+are outstanding targets for simple sabotage. They are extremely
+susceptible to damage, especially by fire; they offer
+opportunities to such untrained people as janitors, charwomen,
+and casual visitors; and, when damaged, they present a
+relatively large handicap to the enemy.
+
+(a) Fires can be started wherever there is an accumulation of
+inflammable material. Warehouses are obviously the most
+promising targets but incendiary sabotage need not be confined
+to them alone.
+
+\begin{adjustwidth}{2em}{2em}
+
+(1) Whenever possible, arrange to have the fire start after you
+have gone away. Use a candle and paper, combination, setting
+it as close as possible to the inflammable material you want to
+burn: From a sheet of paper, tear a strip three or four
+centimeters wide and wrap it around the base of the candle two
+or three times. Twist more sheets of paper into loose ropes and
+place them around the base of the candle. When the candle
+flame reaches the encircling strip, it will be ignited and in turn
+will ignite the surrounding paper. The size, heat, and duration
+of the resulting flame will depend on how much paper you use
+and how much of it you can cramp in a small space.
+
+(2) With a flame of this kind, do not attempt to ignite any but
+rather inflammable materials, such as cotton sacking. To light
+more resistant materials, use a candle plus tightly rolled or
+twisted paper which has been soaked in gasoline. To create a
+briefer but even hotter flame, put celluloid such as you might
+find in an old comb, into a nest of plain or saturated paper
+which is to be fired by a candle.
+
+(3) To make another type of simple fuse, soak one end of a
+piece of string in grease. Rub a generous pinch of gunpowder
+over the inch of string where greasy string meets clean string.
+Then ignite the clean end of the string. It will burn slowly
+without a flame (in much the same way that a cigarette burns)
+until it reaches the grease and gunpowder; it will then flare up
+suddenly. The grease-treated string will then burn with a flame.
+The same effect may be achieved by using matches instead of
+the grease and gunpowder. Run the string over the match
+heads, taking care that the string is not pressed or knotted.
+They too will produce a sudden flame. The advantage of this
+type of fuse is that string burns at a set speed. You can time
+your fire by the length and thickness of the string you chose.
+
+(4) Use a fuse such as; the ones suggested above to start a
+fire in an office after hours. The destruction of records and
+other types of documents would be a serious handicap to the
+enemy.
+
+(5) In basements where waste is kept, janitors should
+accumulate oily and greasy waste. Such waste sometimes
+ignites spontaneously, but it can easily be lit with a cigarette or
+match. If you are a janitor on night duty, you can be the first to
+report the fire, but don’t report it too soon.
+
+(6) A clean factory is not susceptible to fire, but a dirty one is.
+Workers should be careless with refuse and janitors should be
+inefficient in cleaning. If enough dirt and trash can be
+accumulated an otherwise fireproof building will become
+inflammable.
+
+(7) Where illuminating gas is used in a room which is vacant
+at night, shut the windows tightly, turn on the gas, and leave a
+candle burning in the room, closing the door tightly behind
+you. After a time, the gas will explode, and a fire may or may
+not follow.
+
+\end{adjustwidth}
+
+(b)Water and Miscellaneous
+
+\begin{adjustwidth}{2em}{2em}
+
+\hspace{\parindent}(1) Ruin warehouse stock by setting the automatic sprinkler
+system to work. You can do this by tapping the sprinkler heads
+sharply with a hammer or by holding a match under them.
+
+(2) Forget to provide paper in toilets; put tightly rolled paper,
+hair, and other obstructions in the W. C. Saturate a sponge with
+a thick starch or sugar solution. Squeeze it tightly into a ball,
+wrap it with string, and dry. Remove the string when fully
+dried. The sponge will be in the form of a tight hard ball. Flush
+down a W. C. or otherwise introduce into a sewer line. The sponge
+will gradually expand to its normal size and plug the sewage
+system.
+
+(3) Put a coin beneath a bulb in a public building during the
+daytime, so that fuses will blow out when lights are turned on
+at night. The fuses themselves may be rendered ineffective by
+putting a coin behind them or loading them with heavy wire.
+Then a short-circuit may either start a fire, damage
+transformers, or blow out a central fuse which will interrupt
+distribution of electricity to a large area.
+
+(4) Jam paper, bits of wood, hairpins, and anything else that
+will fit, into the locks of all unguarded entrances to public
+buildings.

 \section{Industrial Production: Manufacturing}
 
+\hspace{\parindent}Tools
+
+\begin{adjustwidth}{2em}{2em}
+
+(1) Let cutting tools grow dull. They will be inefficient, will
+slow down production, and may damage the materials and
+parts you use them on.
+
+(2) Leave saws slightly twisted when you are not using them.
+After a while, they will break when used.
+
+(3) Using a very rapid stroke will wear out a file before its
+time. So will dragging a file in slow strokes under heavy
+pressure. Exert pressure on the backward stroke as well as the
+forward stroke.
+
+(4) Clean files by knocking them against the vise or the
+workpiece; they are easily broken this way.
+
+(5) Bits and drills will snap under heavy pressure.
+
+(6) You can put a press punch out of order by putting in it
+more material than it is adjusted for — two blanks instead of
+one, for example.
+(7) Power-driven tools like pneumatic drills, riveters, and so
+on, are never efficient when dirty. Lubrication points and
+electric contacts can easily be fouled by normal accumulations
+of dirt or the insertion of foreign matter.
+
+\end{adjustwidth}
+
+\hspace{\parindent}(b) Oil and lubrication systems are not only vulnerable to
+easy sabotage, but are critical in every machine with moving
+parts. Sabotage of oil and lubrication will slow production or
+stop work entirely at strategic points in industrial processes.
+
+\begin{adjustwidth}{2em}{2em}
+
+\hspace{\parindent}(1) Put metal dust or filings, fine sand, ground glass, emery
+dust (get it by pounding up an emery knife sharpener) and
+similar hard, gritty substances directly into lubrication
+systems. They will scour smooth surfaces, ruining pistons,
+cylinder walls, shafts, and bearings. They will overheat and
+stop motors which will need overhauling, new parts, and
+extensive repairs. Such materials, if they are used, should be
+introduced into lubrication systems past any filters which
+otherwise would strain them out.
+
+(2) You can cause wear on any machine by uncovering a filter
+system, poking a pencil or any other sharp object through the
+filter mesh, then covering it up again. Or, if you can dispose of
+it quickly, simply remove the filter.
+
+(3) If you cannot get at the lubrication system or filter
+directly, you may be able to lessen the effectiveness of oil by
+diluting it in storage. In this case, almost any liquid will do
+which will thin the oil. A small amount of sulphuric acid,
+varnish, water-glass, or linseed oil will be especially effective.
+
+(4) Using a thin oil where a heavy oil is prescribed will break
+down a machine or heat up a moving shaft so that it will
+“freeze” and stop.
+
+(5) Put any clogging substance into lubrication systems or, if
+it will float, into stored oil. Twisted combings of human hair,
+pieces of string, dead insects, and many other common objects
+will be effective in stopping or hindering the flow of oil through
+feed lines and filters.
+
+(6) Under some circumstances, you may be able to destroy
+oil outright rather than interfere with its effectiveness, by
+removing stop-plugs from lubricating systems or by puncturing
+the drums and cans in which it is stored.
