JAPANESE BOOST TOWER OF BABEL TOKIO, Japan, Jan. 20.-Tokio claims possession of the highest monolithic tower in the world, in a reinforced concrete structure recently completed to be used as a wireless station.

It is 660 feet in height, has a diameter of 55 feet at its base and four feet at its highest point, and the thickness of its walls is 33 inches at the bottom and six inches at the top. The foundation rests on gravel and clay and is 12 feet in depth.

He stated that Tyre put commerce first, and Tyre fell: Greece put learning first, and the glory of Greece has long since faded; Rome put law first, and Rome went down, but, the Jews put God first long ago, before Tyre and Greece and Rome ever had been dreamed of, and the Jews yet remain. The glory of cities is not in numbers, but in the quality and character of its citizens. Two things have made Scotland, he said—the school master and the kirk. The only salvation of the country is more of the Spirit of Jesus Christ. He stated that he believed God was saying that He expects So. Calif. to be the New Jerusalem to lead the world in the new era, and closed with the appeal, "Arise and build for God." Harry Hill, state secretary of the Y., was present, and made a short talk, extending greeting. The committee on Resolutions presented the following, which was adopted: 1. That the convention approves and most highly, the work of the county committee and their executive committee, and the splendid progress as outlined in the reports submitted. 2. That the snearest appreciation be extended to those contributors, leaders, committeemen, school men, pastors, mothers, editors, and all others who have helped make these reports possible. 3. That we re-affirm the principle that the religious motive is essential to make welfare work vital and of permanent value, and that leadership can only be entrusted to men of Christian character and unquestioned loyalty to the Christian church. 4.

Calif. points this morning, citrus growers, who smudged heavily yesterday when the Southland was hit by the coldest weather since 1913, believed that the worst of the cold snap is over. Smudging was resorted to by growers in many of the groves in the interior today and it was believed that if any danger was caused by frost it was slight. Warmer weather is forecast for tomorrow, although frost warnings were issued again today. Growers said today that they would be unable this early to give an accurate estimate of the damage caused in some exposed sections by yesterday morning's frost. It was further stated that it was believed the higher prices received for the undamaged fruit would compensate for any loss suffered by reason of the frost. Hundreds of citrus growers, packers and shippers in Los Angeles co. arranged to attend—a meeting in Room D, Normal MH Center, late to day at which the Trest situation and ways and means of keeping frosted fruit out of the market would be considered. The meeting was called by Los Angeles Horticultural Commissioner Ryan. Similar meetings were to be called in Ventura, San Bernardino, Riverside and Orange counties. Request that such meetings be called was made by Earl G. Deszell, assistant general manager of the California Fruit Growers Exchange, who asked for the co-operation or all associations in holding up picking and packing for at least 10 days, in order that it may be determined what fruit is fit to handle. San Diego, Ventura and Orange counties were reported in good shape today. Slight damage was caused in the interior, however, according to officials of the exchange. Riverside, which had a minimum temperature yesterday of 31 degrees, had a minimum today of 23 and it was said that some fruit in the lowlands was nipped. Frank Chase of the National Orange Co., said that smudging resulted in most of the crop being saved.
