Fopular struggle has reached point of climax. The time has arrived where people dare to rise up and resist the KUOMIY- TANG, because the people are at their wits end in regard to maintainence of livlihood. Similar conditions exist in many places in Kwangtung and Kwangsi.
The Kuomintang's control over the lower strata is not effec- tive. Although the "Po Chia" system in Kwangsi is compar- atively more effective, changes have occurred now owing to existence of inconsistency and conflicts of interests between the lower strata and the K.M.T. upper crust. The K.M. T. have encountered difficulty in controlling strata below the "PO CHIA" Chiefs but on the other hand, we fel easier in doing so. Pay attention to areas which lie beyond the K.M.T. in fluence. Even in areas where strong K.M.T. influence is felt, there are open cracks.
The K.M.T. are on a nation-wide defensive and are facing a situation of debacle. On the surface, the K.M.T. is strong; but in actual fact, weak. The Liberation Army's coming down to the South is inevitable.
Note: Before action, pay attention to comprehension of environments and study of conditions. Ban- aits may be utilised. Conditions are not nec- essarily prevailing
they can be created.

A. How to Create Conditions
(how to act).
1.
To penetrate a point in a villa e personally, such as to be- come a hawker or to open a small shop. To obtain an understanding of the inconsistencies existing in the village; and organise a mut- ual aid association with help of active elements of intellectuals and peasants. After that, extend to other places. The said vil- lage is completed.
2. Send a new comrade to work in the village and to become a school-teacher. In the beginning, give him a small mission to carry out. Mix with the peasants; go to farm; participate in ac- tivities of the lower strate; and later form an anti-gambling as- sociation; Procal along the masses' line.
3. There were over 10 comrades in a certain place far from the city. At the beginning, the local party were at its' wits' end. Later, men (armed) were sent back by the army; they roamed about and later succeeded in organising 4 or 5 armed units. In the be- ginning, organise anti-bandits groups; do not discuss politics; and later rise up.
4.
To organise by means of fighting the native bandits.
5. To gain control of arms through taking advantage of armed feuds between rival clans.

6. Train one man as for instance, à teller. After familiarising himself with local conditions, conduct propaganda openly. There was an instance where over 200 men were won over in this way.
Do not confine activities to one specific area. Activities should be widespread some in open form and some in secret. Most important thing is to isolate the operational areas.

The time and sloguns should be made acceptable to the masses
