>> WASHINGTON ? The CIA lifted the lid on one corner of the cloak and
>> dagger world of World War I, declassifying six of the oldest secret
>> documents in the U.S. government archives, the agency announced Tuesday.

>> The documents show top techniques used by spies, generals and diplomats
>> to send secret messages in a diplomatic war that raged long after the
>> guns stopped. The records reveal how invisible ink was used to send word
>> between allies, and spies learned to open letters to read each other's
>> secrets without leaving a trace.

>> One document suggests this method for passing secret messages: soaking a
>> handkerchief or collar in a mixture of nitrate, soda and starch, then
>> drying the fabric. The chemicals come out when the cloth is placed in
>> water. The liquid becomes invisible ink, that can be loaded into a pen
>> and used to write a message. The recipient develops the writing by
>> applying a second chemical, iodate of potassium.

>> There's even a document written in French of the German's secret ink
>> formula, showing the French had cracked the enemy's code.

>> "These documents remained classified for nearly a century until recent
>> advancements in technology made it possible to release them," CIA
>> Director Leon E. Panetta said in a statement Tuesday.

>> Recent advances in the chemistry of secret ink, and the lighting methods
>> used to detect it have made the secrets revealed Tuesday obsolete,
>> explained CIA spokesperson Marie E. Harf.

>> Documents on secret writing fall under the CIA's authority to
>> declassify. The agency declassified more than a million historical
>> documents last year alone, the agency said.

>> But the CIA was not always so eager to share these particular secrets,
>> according to Steve Aftergood, of the Federation for American Scientists.
>> He says the CIA resisted a Freedom of Information Act request in 2002 to
>> release the records.

>> Nor was he impressed at Panetta's statement that the documents could be
>> released now because of new technological advances.

>> "Invisible ink was rendered obsolete by digital encryption long ago, not
>> in the last few years," Aftergood said.

>> "Director Panetta is attempting to rationalize the CIA's irrational
>> information policies, but there is no known basis for his claim."

>> The documents are now available on the agency's website at the site's
>> Freedom of Information Act Electronic Reading Room.

>> Scholars will also be able to examine them at the National Archives.
