Abstract
ONE reads with intensified interest the report of the progress of forestry in Malaya, now, we may trust for but a brief period, put to an end by the irruption of the Japanese. J. G. Watson, the head of the Forestry Department (if we omit the local inter-divisions of forestry administration of but little interest to the outside world), has written the “Annual Report on Forest Administration in Malaya including Brunei for the year 1940” (F.M.S. Govt. Press, Kuala Lumpur ; 1941). In the report for the preceding year his predecessor, very fortunately as may now be thought, gave a valuable and interesting history of the growth of the Department from the year 1883 (see also NATURE, 148, 312; 1941).
