Chapter 106 Letter to Xie Juezai and Chen Zhengren[1] on the issue of better troops and simpler administration

(August 19, 1942) Juezai, Comrade Masato: The second session of the Senate discussed today should focus on the preparation of a streamlined army and a streamlined administration. Before the meeting, the streamlining should be implemented. After the meeting, the streamlining should be checked (checked). Streamlining includes streamlining, efficiency, and unification.Today (19th) I read the article in today's (19th) newspaper "A better army and simpler administration in the Shanxi-Hebei-Shandong-Henan Border Region". Can we fully imitate here? This matter should be carried out after the rectification movement has been studied, and then a large-scale movement like the rectification movement can be widespread, in-depth and practical. In the past, it was only a rumor.
