ward on the road to revolution, is OBJ
jectively betrayal of the struggle.
Inaction, negative attitude, can do
as much and frequently more harm to
the revolution as action in the inter-

the inaction of leaders paralyzes the

RECENT events in China have en-
~ phasized the fact that it is just
as important for Communists to know
precisely when and how to break
with other social groups as it is to
know how and when to unite with
them. The decisive action by the
Communist International against the
Central Committee of the Chinese
Party for failing to break with the
elements in the Wuhan government
that were fig ing against the
workers and peasants again serves to
bring before US the problem of uni
ted front tactics.
The present crisis in the Chinese
revolution is the result of the pecu-
liar conditions under which the move
ment developed. Predominantly a
peasant country, the introduction Of
capitalist production by the imperial
list powers developed in a short time
a proletariat that stands forth as the
most powerful independent class in
the countryside class whose destiny
it is to take the lead in ANY revolu-
tionary movement against imperial
ism. But in this struggle the work.
ing class, under the leadership of the
Communists, must defend the inter
ests of the seething masses of pea
santry and theoretically fight for
peasant demands in order to win the
support of that class and bring it
into conscious political action against
the imperialist ravagers of the coun-
try. The growth of the capitalist
class did not keep relative pace with
the development of industry and the
growth of the proletariat organized
around that industry. Profits of
most industrial establishments went
to enrich still more the imperialist
investors. Naturally the bourgeoisie
was not able to become powerful
factor in China. It hasn't sufficient
vitality to lead an independent politi-
cal existence and must find allies in
order to survive. 1t perceived that

ment, was due to the oppression of

IT was also inevitable that, at GER

class demands, the bourgeoise would
