["Mobilize the masses to urgently go into action and overcome the drought"].
At present, the drought is serious.  Urgently taking action and doing everything possible to overcome the drought and strive for a bumper autumn harvest is an extremely urgent combat task facing the people of our province.  Since mid-June, it has rained in our province several times but it has not rained very evenly.  It has not rained in many places during the past 1/2 year and more.  By the end of July, autumn crops on 37.35 million mu of land have been affected by the drought, accounting for more than 1/3 of the total area of the autumn crops.  The drought has greatly harmed the growth of autumn crops.  If we do not act now the drought will seriously affect the autumn harvest.  Mobilizing the masses to urgently go into action to overcome the drought and strive for a bumper autumn harvest is a major task which has a bearing on the livelihood of both the urban and rural people of our province and on the further development of the excellent situation.  Therefore, party committees at all levels must pay attention to this, concentrate the forces to grasp it firmly and well, and not lower their guard.  The party members, cadres, and masses must carry forward the spirit of fighting continuously and struggling hard, make full use of all water conservancy projects and antidrought machinery and tools, try their best to find new water resources, and use water reasonably and sparingly.  All walks of life and trades must do everything possible to vigorously support the struggle against the drought and do well in supplying the oil and electricity needed for agricultural machinery and help to repair machinery and tools.  We all must contribute toward the effort to achieve a bumper autumn harvest.
