Nearly a million trees were burned in a fire on a Forestry plantation near Bettws-y-Coed, Carnarvonshire, Wales. “For over a year,” said Sir Philip Game, Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, speaking at the Hendon Police Driving School, “we have tried persuasion as against prosecution, and in 1937 the only increase in prosecutions was for dangerous driving. Prosecutions for this offence are all too few. This tends to show that the pedestrian is reacting and the driver is not.”
