That is an air raid evacuation bag used at a town's administration office to contain key navy-related conscription papers that they could not afford to lose in a fire, during air raids. The clerk in charge needed to carry the bag every time he/she evacuated to a shelter.
Note that the modern earthquake evac bags for households have the same kanji in red in the picture below.
Thanks Nick! Exactly the info I wanted. Appreciate your time.
Thanks Guy! I've never seen another of these bags!
