Letter to the Editor.
A WRITER in the February number of your journal suggests that the future of Norfolk Island lies in its tourist traffic. If that is so, its two most mar ketable products are its climate and its beauty.
Some of this beauty lies in Govern ment-owned reserves; but the greater part is on the property of the residents of the island.
Surely those wh,o despoil this beauty by ruthlessly cutting down the magnifi cent and unique Norfolk Island pine-trees are killing the goose that lays the golden egg.
I am, etc.,
Tree Lover.
Norfolk Is., March 20. 1938.
