THE CONSERVATOR OF FORESTS. MR. WALTER GILL RETIRING. MR. EDWARD JULIUS SUCCEEDS HIM. The Executive Council on Wednesday appointed Mr. Edward Julius, of the Tasmanian Forests Department, to be Conservator of Forests in South Australia in succession to Mr. Walter Gill, F.L.S., F.R.H.S., who, after an extension of his period of service, will retire on December 31 next. Mr. Julius will take up his duties, if possible, on January 1. Mr. Julius is a married man, 55 years of age. He was educated at Newington College, Sydney, and during the last fifteen years has been in the service of the New South Wales and Tasmanian Forest Departments. For the last two years he has been stationed at Burnie, Tasmania, as district forester in charge of the north- west division. In New South Wales he was successively forest guard, forest assessor, and assistant district forester, the duties of the last named position entailing the administration of an area of 20,000 square miles in the north-western district of that State. His duties included the administration of the Forestry Act and regulations, forest survey and assessment, forest management (embracing the silvicultural treatment of forest areas by protection and encouragement of natural regeneration of forest species of commercial value), treatment of waste lands by the establishment of plantations and nurseries and commercial utilisation of the crop. Mr. Julius has made forest valuation surveys of 300,000 acres. He made a special study of the increment growth in relation to the rotation of crops of various indigenous and exotic species, and other matters. He has also studied the growth of conifers and visited New Zealand for the Tasmanian Government in connection with an enquiry regarding pine growing. Mr. L. G. Irby (Tasmanian Conservator of Forests), in supporting Mr. Julius' application, said he held him to be one of the leading foresters of Australia, and of all the foresters known to him he stood alone. Mr. R. D. Hay, Chief Commissioner of Forestry in New South Wales, considers that Mr. Julius is capable of performing high duties associated with the formulation and direction of a forest police under Australian conditions.

About 1935 Edward Julius told (Sir) George Julius who was researching the family tree at that time, that his grandmothers maiden name was Margaret Warner, from the West Indies, and that she was related in some way to "Plum" Warner, so well known in the cricket world. "Plum" Warner's people also came from the West Indies. Ref Letter from George Julius to Stuart Smith 4 Jan 1936.
