10. Gradually change the emphasis from land-reform work to that of restoring
and increasing agricultural production. Start by farming, among the farm laborers,
well-to-do farmers, and landlords, small emergercy labor groups and other cooperative
teams, organized on the basis of two principles voluntary action and the quid-pro-
quo mutual exchange of services. Prepare good beads, fertilizers, and fuel; make
wisp production plans; distribute agricultural loans where needed and where possible
(primarily productive goods, which must be refunded, clearly distinguishing between
them and relief funds); also formulate plans for water conservancy where feasible,
The above activities represent the complete transition from land reform to
the production goal. Everyone engaged in lanai-reform work should be made to
understand the idea of this transition in order to avoid ex parte action. The
opportunity of,accompliahing these things during the coming fall and winter-seasons
moat not be lost.
1. Determine the scope of land.-reform objectives.
2. Conduct good conferences of Party workers.

3. All land-refo u workers must be on the site and ready to work by the first
part of September, and have started work by the latter part of September; otherwise,
valuable time will be lost and the work cannot be completed in time to prepare for
spring p]anti'4.
Party worksra n-eist be trained to be able to size up bituations in different
pimces and at different times, and to decido what needs to ba done and the best
methods to be adopted. Distinctions are to be made between urban aril rural areas,
^].d. eem:old, and r.nv areas, and those near the enemy.

considered accomplished; do not discuss Lho matter further. The task in such
regions is to get on with the business of production, and the regularization and
strengthening of the Party and old to the front lines. If in some of the villages
of an area there is still some land to be redistributed or readjusted, or some
land deeds still to be issued, of course these matters should be finished up
acocnding to the circumstances.
..n all liberated areas, whether or not land reform has been completed, Party
workers this fall should promote the cultivation of wheat landmd"we that w9zter

unity and discipline. Also overer_mie the error on tho part of soma officials of
neglecting to secure instructions in advance of action or of reporting afterwar.,
on the pretext of urgency or lack of time, and acting as though the area cf whic.,
they are in control was an independent countr7. Such conduct is extremely damaging
to the revolutionary- cause. All levels of Party workers should give repeated con-
sideration to,thie r.tter so. as to be; able to recognize and overcome this sort of
undisciplined and lawless attitude, and so that all?neceesarr powers'shall be
concentrated in the, Central Committee and its representative organs.
Ail means of communication (electrical aid otherwise), newspapers, meetings,
conferences, aid interviews, should be fully utilized to promote close mutual
liaison, to exchange of experience and intelligence, to correct errors, and: to
report accomplishments. Do not wait several months or longer before reporting
to your superiors or before Issuing instructions to,your subordinates.. When
suoh'reporte or instructions are delayed, they have lost their usefulness;
it is too late to correct errors Red great damage may have been done. The,pressing
requirements of the whole Party are reports and instructions that have not lost
their timeliness, vitality, or objectivity.
Both city aid rural work must be attended to. Make assignment of duties
for both types of vor:. to the proper partiesfor execution. For instance, be-
