Die Spoorbund
Die Spoorbund was an Afrikaner railway trade union formed in 1934 by H. J. Klopper, founder of the Afrikaner Broederbond,which advocated a policy of replacing all black railway workers by Afrikaners. It rejected strikes and called instead for loyal service to the South African Railways and Harbours Administration. It had a membership of some 16,000 in the 1930s, considerably more that its rival, the National Union of Railway and Harbour Servants. [1]
