where the workers and peasants
have formed a government of
their own. 1t aims at crushing
the rule of world Imperialism by
fighting hand in hand with the op-
pressed masses of the whole world
and it will fight bitterly against
the exploitation of the colonial
and semi-colonial countries by i'm
perialism, but strongly in favor Of

termination.
ABROGATION OF UNEQUAL
TREATIES
To toilers and governments
thruout the world the provisional
government of the Soviet Republic
of China deems it necessary to de-
clare its stand in following mat
tiers.
The immediate abrogation of all
unequal treaties concluded be-
tween the imperialist countries
and the interchangeable gov
eminent of China, the reputation
of all foreign debts contracted by
| the ruling class of China for the
suppression of the mass move
ment and the massacre Of the
masses, the unconditional rendi-
ton of all foreign settlements,
concessions and leased territories
now under control of the imperial
lists, the immediate withdrawal of
all imperialist land, air and naval
forces from Chinese soil, last but
most important of all, the confis-
cation of all imperiahst banks,
factories, mines and communica-
tion-transportation enterprises To-
Gated in China as the most effect
i've measure TO destroy the imper-
ialist domination, root and branch.
Furthermore, the Provisional
government of the Soviet Repub-
lie of China declares that it will
under no condition remain content
! with the overthrow Of imperialism
in China, but, on the contrary,
will aid as its ultimate objective
in waging a war against world
, Imperialism until the latter is all
blown up.
! But for the time being the Pro-
J visional government of the Soviet
Republic of China raises no objec-
, ton to the conclusion of treaties
with imperialist countries on the
q basis of complete equality. The
4 nationals of such countries domi-
|, ciled in the Soviet territory may
! enjoy liberty and freedom in car
4 rying on trade, commerce and in
Q dustry, provided they do not run
y counter to the Soviet laws. The
n Provisional government Of the
q Soviet Republic of China however
:. makes it very clear that actions
u on the part of foreign nationals
in violation of the Soviet laws,
AZ whatever be the forms they as
"a sumo, will positively lead to for
a fixture of all liberty accorded to
I'd them and of all property in their
n possession.
rs In view of the fact that the OBJ.
ut ject of secret diplomacy as prac-
ticed by the imperialist countries
+ in their relation to the colonia.
Nv and semi-colonial landlord bour.
O. gois states has been and is merely
So to deceive the proletariat in the

T. semi-colonies, the Provisional gov
10 eminent of the Soviet Republic o.
a China takes strong exception tt
ar the conduct Of negotiations behinC
n closed doors and will insist OF
an the principle of open diplomacy.
It 1t will carry on its foreign re
to lations under the surveillance ant
with the support of the toilers o.
China as well as in other parts O.
,r- the world. 1t will expose all tn
ICE secret agreements signed by tn
landlord-bourgois governments o
China with the imperialist coun

The Provisional government o
the Soviet Republic of China nov
calls upon the toilers of the Who'll
ID world to defend the only revolu

government of China, to smas
the exploiting world-capitalism O
de united front with their brother
