NEW EVENTS IN CHINA u,

By D. BENNETT.

OF the Communist international Which
was unanimously adopted on Febru-
airy 25th last, concludes with the ap-
peal to all sections of the Commun-
ist International "to fight against
the calumny spread by the social
democrats and Trotskyists that the
Chinese revolution is liquidated."
The fight against this calunny is
all the more necessary at present as
world imperialism, and in the first
place English imperialism, is con
Quoting an unexampledly cruel and
! bloody war against the Chinese work
/ ers. The imperialists are treating
the Chinese Revolution as a revolu-
tion which has already been drowned
n the blood of the workers and peas
ants. They took care that the flower
Of the heroic Chinese proletariat and
the best leaders of the peasant move
ment are physically annihilated. Now
they believe that they can still fur
Their increase the exploitation of
China and convert the land from
semi-colony into real colony. In
this predatory work they receive the
help Of the social democratic and
Trotskyist calumniators, who, just
like the imperialists, say that the
Chinese Revolution has suffered a
final defeat.
Workers, Peasants Rise.
The mood of the imperialists found
clearest expression in the "king's
speech" at the opening of the Eng
fish parliament. The speech declared
that the number of English troops in
China could be reduced, or, what is
the same thing, the murder and an
inhalation of the Chinese revolution
aries could be continued by means of
The forces of the Chinese reaction
aries.
In contradiction to the optimism"
of the conservatives and the "pes-
sinism" of the Trotskyists, both of
whom are burying the Chinese Revo-
luton, the Executive Committee Of
the Communist International, while
not denying that the Chinese Revolu-
ton has suffered a severe defeat
came to the conclusion that the work.
ers and peasants are approaching a
new and powerful upsurge of the re-
volution.
1t is perfectly clear that in order
to prepare for this new advance and
to make proper use of it in the in
terests of successful fight against
world Imperialism and against the
Chinese reaction, the active help of
the advance-guard of the working
class is necessary. The power of the
Chinese counter-revolution depends
to great extent upon the power of
international imperialism, which on
its part enjoys complete freedom of
action thanks to the support of the
reformists. The active support Of the
Chinese Revolution means, therefore
in the first place the fight against
world imperialism. The whole of the
advance-guard of the working class
is fighting against the whole of world
imperialism, while the workers Of
every single country must fight
against their own imperialists. AT
the same time the fight against i'm
perialism must be intensified by an
: offensive against the entire social~re-
formist camp. simultaneously the
advance-guard of the world prole-
tariat must exert all it's forces in
order that the Chinese workers ard
peasants, who are holding aloft the
banner of the revolutionary struggle
are supported by all the suppressed
and exploited.
Chinese Resolution of February
Plenum.
The Chinese resolution of the Feb
ruary Plenum of the Executive Com
mittee Of the Communist Interna-
tioral sketches clear picture of those
difficulties with which the Commun-
ist Party Of China is at present con
fronted. The Party will have to com.
bat the ultra-left tendencies which
involve the danger of the advance
guard being isolated from the main
mass of the fighters, and on the other
hand the liquidatory tendencies which
find expression in attempts to replace
the Communist Party, which is grow
ing and becoming stronger in the
