It will be an extremely fine thing if the merchants are friendly with the labourers, help them to solve their difficult problems, help to emancipate them from their suffer ings and unite with them to fight against foreign capitalism.

Before Imperialism is crushed, no Chiarse merchants, however power ful, can develop their business to the fullest extent. For example, if we do not beat down the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank, the Chinese will never be able to open their own banks.

Our Chinese business men are not capitalists. Chinese merchants, like Chinese labourers, are under the oppression of the Imperialists. If we want to beat down Imperial ism, we must beat down foreign capitalism
