TRAINING WORK IN CHINA

BY GENERAL CHEN CHENG MINISTER OF THE POLITICAL TRAINING : BOARD OF THE NATIONAL MILITARY COUNCIL

Political training in the Chinese armed forces was be- gun during the northern expedition which was launched by the Nationalist armies in the 15th year of the Republic (1926). During the last ten years or so, such training has contributed greatly toward China's efforts to build a new army. Following the outbreak of the present struggle in July, 1937, the need for political work increased with the intensification of the military operations.
