non-commissioned officer writes from
the Transvaal protesting against soldiers
being compelled to travel third class on
South African railways. He points out that
the third class is, at any rate in Natal,
practically used by kafirs only. and any
white man travelling in a carriage with
kafrs would feel degraded in his own
eyes and would be regarded with contempt
by mis- fellows. That this is so is sup

they are there, to compel soldiers to do
what no white man will voluntarily do

My correspondent asserts that soldiers
travelling on the Natal railways are SUBJ
ject to every kind of slight and insult from
railway officials and passengers. and are
treated, in fact more or less like Kafirs.
If the government sets the example of so
treating them, what else can 1t expect?
