Privates Mistreated.

Recruiting in the British motor
volunteer corps is at a standstill,
because the privates in the corps,
although socially just as good as
the officers, are treated as inferi-
ors while in uniform. For exam
pie, they frequently find them
selves debarred from joining the
officers at mess, during the "stafi
rides" simply for that reason.
