1. On 4 June 19529 the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) Organization Department ordered
the local offices of the CCP Politburo and the Organization Departments of the
CCP Provincial Committees to expedite completion of rotational training for cadres
.in active services
2. This order pointed out that the three anti's movement had uncovered large numbers
of culpable cadre members in all levels of organizations. A few of these were
CCF and Youth Corps members who had lost their class consciousness, who had failed
to see things clearly and had consequently lost their class stand. The majority,
however, were non Party people (particularly members of retained staffs) who did
not know Communism and the aims of the CCP, who could not understand the nature
of the revolutionary regime., and who, consequently, failed to follow the concept
of service to the people.
3. The order further pointed out that Party and Youth Corps schools could modify
the instructions issued by the COP Organization Department in January 1951 so as
to provide that CCP and Youth Corps members may be trained alongside other active
cadre members during this program, and thus expedite the rotational training programol
This order concluded with the requirement that all cadre members in active ser-
vice must complete this training program before April 19530
