Cut That Tree!
Various land owners in the
Kenai and Soldotna areas have
reported that Christmas trees—
sometimes as many as a truck
load—have been taken from their
property without persons cutting
them requesting permission.
Several of these property own
ers and homesteaders arc protest
ing vigorously against such wan
ton trespassing by persons who
show no respect whatsoever for
another person's property.
The cutting of Christmas trees,
even one tree, on privately owned
<>r state owned land is a violation
of the law.
Permission must be obtained,
and is most generally given, for
the cutting of an occasional tree.
The land owner, however, has a
legal right to be consulted and to
-uggest which tree he is walling
to donate for some child’s Christ
mas.
The cutting of tmck loads of
trees by commercially-minded in
dividuals is as much of a theft
as the taking of the fanner’s
strain, livestock or other posses
sions, it was pointed out.
