We should learn from Changkang and Tsaihsi Townships and oppose bureaucratic leaders like those in Tingchow city. I earnestly suggest to this congress that we pay close attention to the well-being of the masses, from the problems of land and labour to those of fuel, rice, cooking oil and salt. The women want to learn ploughing and harrowing. The children want to go to school. The wooden bridge over there is too narrow and people may fall off.
Many people suffer from boils and other ailments.
All such problems concerning the well-being of the masses should be placed on our agenda. We should discuss them, adopt and carry out decisions and check up on the results. We should convince the masses that we represent their interests, that our lives are intimately bound up with theirs. We should help them to proceed from these things to an understanding of the higher tasks which we have put forward, the tasks of the revolutionary war, so that they will support the revolution and spread it throughout the country, respond to our political appeals and fight to the end for victory in the revolution. It has thought of everything on our behalf.
