FORESTS AND BIRDS.
lA/ E submit that the care of our forests and birds is allied " * very vitally to the well-being of every citizen of this
land and that it is therefore most unwise that the administration of such should remain in the hands of the unskilled. Further, We should like to emphasise that nature lovers claim just as much right to the forests and birds as those desiring to use them merely) for the purpose of fostering something to kill- There are more of us and we get more profit and pleasure from our forests and birds in our way than the killers do in theirs. We shall persist with our claims as citizens in this matter, and we shall feel wronged if our rights are not respected; besides this the well-being of our native forests and birds is an absolute necessity to our national prosperity, nay, our existence as a people.
