never to be forgotten, we must maintain it in such a position
that it will be qualified to lead the masses. Now that the
Communists have expelled all its loyal members and usurped
its management, all people are supposing that it has been
Sovietized, and thus how can it be the case that it will not
be forgotten? Our Principle of Social Livelihood can in no
way be similar to Communism. It prevents capitalism, but
permits no class-antagonism or tyranny of the property-less
class. The greatest rival of the Communists is our Kuomin-
teng, for as long as our Kuomintang is in power, the Communist
Party can have no hope of ruling China. Thus how can they co-operate with us with sincerity?
In the present crisis I must appeal to all you
loyal members of our Kuomintang to do your utmost early to
accomplish the national Revolution, to promote the privileges
of the masses, especially of the peasants and workmen, and
to strengthen unity among us.
