Comrade Xiao Hua:
General Instructions for Handling Criticisms by the General Political Department
(January 9, 1952)
For the Three-Anti reports of the military system that require handling, all are to be handled by you, including general issues of the various departments of the Military Commission, the major military regions, and the Volunteer Army. Only certain special issues that must go through me for resolution shall be handled by me. I am mainly in charge of guiding issues that involve relations among the Party, government, military, and civilians.
