Sir, I feel sure that residents who appreciate the beauty of Hongkong must view with profound concern the work of organised gangs who are denuding the hillsides of trees.

Thousands of pine trees have been cut down in the New Territories, and there are vast areas, where but a few years ago trees were flourishing, which now present a pitiful vista of stumps.

If this ravaging is to be stopped, and surely it can be, severe penalties must be imposed upon those who are engaged in the trade.

Furthermore, the number of fores, try guards must be increased, and daily raids made. I suggest that no person should be permitted to carry frewood without a written permit,
