6 going ago to begin withe It.should bo run by the Edu ation departments of the var ious provinces. The African teachers should bo Civil servants under the Education department with pension rights and immunities* Their salar 'ales should be the seme as that of other Non-European with berime qualificationse Play-grounds and Social Cen tres v There should be play grounds for children r.ubs which are properly supervised by trained social workers* In every area there should bo one or more such worker3 0 For adults there there should be sports grounds that are open to the general publie along the line of the Bantu Sports Club? Johannesburg. As Johannesburg covers such a large area there must have to be small clubs where servants may go tc meet their friends, G, Transport» Facilities should be provided for African workers tc board European public vehicles which tc go areas where the person works. It is a serious disadvantage for these people to have to hire taxis where trams and buses could take them cheaply. H» DISCRIMINATING AND RESTRICTIVE LAWS, We have boon told that we cannct hope tc sea any change in the Native Policy for the next 2-5 or 50 years* We, however, feel that the policy of gaols instead of schools, of gaol wardens and police instead of social workers and teachers, has had its day* We do net believe in the immutability of the South African Native Policy and its laws as if they were laws of God and Nature.

But we would like to point cut that for the African Taxation under the Natives Taxation and Development Act Nc 41 of 1925 has been an evil blessing contrary tc the principles of taxation, it is, not a contribution paid to carry on services by those who can. It is a penalty which was imposed indiscriminately to youth years and old men over 60 years with or without income* Tens of 'thousands each year were convicted under this Act:- So me had their stock sold to recover the tax* Of those it has educated, one wonders how many it has demoralised* South Africa has poor whites, poor coloureds5 poor Indians * She this, only wish she -vill soon realise tnat ana nas ioiig neglected her duty with the poor African - the poorest of the poor The needs of African children will determine how much need be spento ( J ) Liquor, Acts, Wo recommend theeqondmant of the Liquor Act. so that were possession of Native Liquor w ill be no crime e Home brew wiij. be permitted in certain areas5 but selling without a iisence will oe severely punished# Police raids should be abolished and there should bo no alcbholio c onto n t limits Licences should bo given to people who desire to get other liquors for personal usct Lie one iid c ante ex taverns run by Africans should be permitted insteacl of beer halls * 18 P o lic e /,,...
