六角钱的故事

董必武在中共南方局（八路军办事处）工作时，生活十分艰苦，八路军办事处每个人的伙食费一个月只有3元法币。重庆谈判时，毛泽东到重庆八路军办事处，看到这里的同志们吃得非常差，说重庆八路军办事处的伙食比延安还差。

由于生活费用少，重庆物价经常波动，八路军办事处的日常生活往往难以为继。为了节约用度，保证中共南方局的正常运转，组织决定由董必武兼管后勤方面的工作。

董必武身负很多重任，每天都忙得很，但他对于办事处机关的伙食开支管理和监督得非常严。他自己带头勤俭节约，决不多花一分钱。他对办伙食的同志提出了一个要求：既要想尽办法改善同志们的伙食，又决不能乱花一分钱。他亲自制定了一个机关伙食标准，实行包干调剂。经济方面的开支要认真记账，每个月算一次账，决不能透支。办伙食的同志严格按照这个要求做了。每个月的开支账，董必武都要核查。

有一个月，董必武在核查月底伙食费账目时，发现多支出了6角钱。董必武因为这件事十分自责，他说：“我们党的经费，每一分钱都是同志们用血汗甚至生命换来的，决不能浪费一分钱。”董必武提出自己要在机关大会上作检查，有同志劝道：“多开支6角钱，也不是你支出的，下次补回来就是了，就不要在大会上检查了。”董必武说：“我是分管后勤工作的，责任在我，正人先正己。”最后，他坚持在大会上检查。他不仅在大会上检查了，还亲笔给党中央写了检讨信。

The Story about “Sixty Cents”

The life was quite tough when Dong Biwu worked in the Southern Bureau of the Communist Party of China (Office of the Eighth Route Army), where the meal allowance for each person was only 3 Yuan (Kuomingtang currency) a month. During the Chongqing talks, Mao Zedong said the food here was no better than Yanan’s after seeing what the comrades ate.

Because of the low budget and the frequent price fluctuations in Chongqing, the daily life of the Eighth Route Army office couldn’t be sustained. In order to save money and ensure the normal operation of the Southern Bureau, Dong Biwu was appointed to take charge of the logistics work.

Dong Biwu was on the trot every day with tremendous work to do, but he did not take the management and supervision of the office's food expenses lightly. He himself took the lead in being frugal and avoiding unnecessary expenses. He made a request to the comrades who run the catering: finding ways to improve the meals of comrades and avoiding any unnecessary spending. He personally formulated a food standard for government institutions and an overall rationing and adjusting system. The expenses must be carefully kept in the accounts, calculated once a month, and overdraft should never be allowed. The comrades in charge of meals strictly observed this regulation. As for the monthly expense account, Dong Biwu insisted on checking it out himself.

At the end of the month, Dong Biwu audited the food account and found out there was an extra expenditure of 60 cents. Dong Biwu blamed himself for it, and said, “Every penny of our Party’s funds is earned by our comrades’ sweat and hard toil, we shouldn’t waste a penny.” Dong Biwu proposed to offer self-examination at the assembly, but some comrades persuaded him, “You are not the one who overspent the 60 cents. Just make up for it next time, so there’s no need to examine yourself critically at the assembly.” Dong Biwu said, “I am the one who is in charge of the logistics support and the responsibility rests with me. No man that cannot command himself is fit to command another.” In the end, he not only insisted on self-examination at the conference, but also personally wrote a letter of self-criticism to the CPC Central Committee.
