Procrastination and lack of unity of effort are the shortcomings which threaten not only progress towards the efficient management of forest and wild life matters, but the very existence of the Empire. The whole national wellbeing is involved in the care and preservation of a sufficiency of strategically placed native forest and wild life reserves. The management of these vital resources or any part of them is not an affair for shooters and fishermen, as it seems to have been thought in past years, but, as the wellbeing of every section of the community is vitally concerned in these matters, the call should be for efficient national management and a whole-hearted national effort for the national welfare.— E. V. Sanderson.
