ABSTRACT
Holding high the great banner of Chairman Mao, Chairman Hua has set forth a series of measures for grasping the key link in running the army well and called on us to strive to "accelerate the revolutionization and modernization of the People's Liberation Army." The four modernizations (of agriculture, industry, national defense and science and technology) put forward by Premier Chou in accordance with Chairman Mao's instructions include the modernization of national defense. The People's Liberation Army should help and take an active part in building the socialist economy. To show concern for economic construction means to show concern for defense construction. The workers, peasants and intellectuals throughout the country should work hard to accomplish the four modernizations before the end of the century. Producing more grain, iron and steel, petroleum and other industrial and agricultural products and developing science and technology means contributing to building our national defense.
