But to do this it will have to defeat
and expel the betrayers of the ma
tional liberation movement, make war
upon them and prove to the Chinese
masses that it is the party of the ma
tional revolution and not as Madame
Sun puts it, ga tool in the hands of
this or that militarist."
THE Communists will fight to re-
4 main in the Kuomintang and they
will have powerful allies in the honest
followers of Sun Vat Sen typified by
Madame Sun and also in the labor
unions and peasant organizations in
which the Communists take a leading
part.
The Kuomintang holds confer
ence some time this month and at this
conference there will take place a
struggle whose outcome will have a
major influence in determining the
immediate course of the struggle for
national liberation. This conference
will be watched closely by the imper-
ialists. It must also be watched close
ly by the workingclass and by every
method possible the struggle of the
Chinese revolutionists who have re-
manned loyal to the Chinese masses
must be supported against the united
front of Chinese and imperialist re-
action.
FOR the American Communist party
= the Importance of this conference
cannot be overestimated since it will
furnish living example of the poll
cies and methods of work of a Com
munist party in the greatest national
liberation movement of history. It's
lessons will have to be applied in the
struggle against American imperial
ism which now Expresses some 1885,
