"The death roll stands at 70, but for the firing done annually by cattle-men it might easily be 700! " |
Letter from "Cattle-Woman"
28 January 1939
The death roll stands at 70, but for the firing done annually by cattle-men it might easily be 700! No cattle-man fires when there is danger of the fire getting out of control … These men defy the law to carry out what they know to be the only practical control of the fire menace. [AR, 28/1/39] |
