LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
A PROTEST
Sir,—As a cleanly human' I should like to voice 11 most emphatic protest. I had to travel from New Plymouth to Wellington a short time ago with a little child, and was disgusted beyond measure at the sanitary ■ arrangements. The wash basin was positively filthy, and the floor covered with dirt. The whole minute place was smelly beyond anything. It did not start clean—it was long-stand-ing dirt and filth. I consider, speaking for.many women, that it is a disgrace that on a mail train men and women should have the same conveniences. I have travelled on Napier and other mail train for'some years, and it has always been equally primitive.—l am, etc., PUIiLIC HEALTH. P.S.-I should iike to ndd that there was no light of any sort in this evil hole after dark.
