The sourse, a general officer in
the Mainland Works Department,
said the guerrillas get supplies

"They burned 3,000 barrels of
gasoline last year," the general
said, "gasoline for which the Reds
had to pay high prices."
In addition to the 30.000 Island

on the border of South China, the
general said there are some 420,000
guerrillas with no direct or official
connection with the Mainland

"Occasionally we air-drop sup
