the same time there were greater differences among
the foreign mperiasts fact which reflected
in the course of the Customs Conference.
3-Third Period From the commencement of
the Northern Expedition till the occupation of
Shanghai by the National troops. This section
characterized by renewed rise of the revolutionary
movement. 1t the development of the workers
movement and the establishment of broad foun-
dation for movement among the peasantry. At
the same time, the struggle against foreign i'm
perialism increased Occupation Of the British
cessions at Hankow and Kiukiang)
The session of the Central Committee of the Com
munst Party at Picking in February 1926 sanctioned
the project of expedition to the north Although
there were subsequently, differences of opinion
various heads cannot speak of great mist axes
having been committed during this period.
The expedition to the north the result of
collaboration between the proletariat and the bour-
geoise. At the close Of the third period, however.
the struggle of the proletariat against the bour-
geoise was aggravated, especially in connection with
the attempts made by the bourgeoise to exploit the
military expedition solely for its own ends This
struggle led to the complete rupture at Shanghai
between the proletariat and the bourgeosie, the
latter revealing pronouncedy ant-revolutionary
tendencies.
Fourth Period: Since the coup of Chang Kai-
shek at Shanghai. This last section is altogether
different from the preceding ones. The bourgeoise
has seeded from the revolutionary front The true
national struggle has become apparent and their
attitude throughout the developments becomes in
creasngly obvious. The result is consolidation of
the united front of the proletariat the peasantry
and petty bourgeosie. The dangers lurking within
the revolutionary movement itself have been greatly
iessened.
The prospects for the near future figure as fol-
lows Accumulation of class differentiation; growth
of the forces of tie proetariat peasantry and petty
bourgeoisie and of the military resources of the
revolution, the further DEVELOPMENT of which thus
appears assured.
The second section Of the report bears the title:
1.-THE Role of the Bourgeoisie in the Revolution"
From historical point of view, the defaction of
the Chinese bourgeoisie is no new departure In
history, the bourgeoisie betrayed every revolution.
The Chinese bourgeoise is opposed to the militar-
lists but favors compromise with the foreign i'm
peralists, from whom it hopes to receive rewards
and favors. The Chinese bourgeoise is not only
opposed to the proletarian revolution, but is not
even able to carry out bourgeois democratic reyolu-
ton. After taking part in the revolution for short
time, the Chinese bourgeoisie became counter-rev-
dictionary Chang Kai-shek represents the left
bourgeoise, which turned pronouncedly counter-rev-
dictionary after April 18th, 1927. The right wing
of the Chinese bourgeoise, the so-called "Compra-
dores" it is hardly worth while to mention in this
connection.
The third part of the report is entitled "The Re-
lation of the Proletarat to the Petty Bourgeosie"
The participation of the petty bourgeoise in
revolution has been characterized throughout by
vacilatons. The proletariat must make concessions
TO the petty bourgeoise for the sake of having its
support. In this connection we have not been able
properly to carry out the resolutions of the C. C.
of the Chinese G. P. passed at the plenary session
of July 1926. In the provinces many mistakes have
been made in this regard. Our task now consists
in drawing the petty bourgeosie into the Kuomin-
tang
The fourth section of the report bears the title:
1.-THE Land Question" The main work in this ques-
ton after the fourth Party Conference of the c. P.
of China held in January 1925, consisted in organ
izing the peasantry and in the fight for the re-
ducsion of the rent of the land. This movement is
passing over to higher stage and is being
