MAY HEAR GOV. BY WIRELESS SUNDAY
Finding it impossible to obtain phone amplifiers in time to permit Governor Wm. Stephens to address the meeting of the Houser Bible class Sunday morning by long distance, efforts were being made today to have a wireless erected. It is not known yet whether this plan will be successful.
It is planned to have 1,500 men present at the class meeting, which is scheduled to be held in the open air in the block across the street from the city hall. It is the last day of the contest between the Santa Ana and Fullerton Bible classes.
Charles H. Paddock, world’s champion sprinter, will be one of the drawing cards at the meeting and the city band will be out in full regalia. Community singing will be led by Dr. Wickett. David Starr Jordan, world’s foremost peace advocate and president emeritus of Stanford is also a drawing card. A personal message to the Bible class from President Harding at Washington will also be read.

20,000 CARS FRUIT LEFT AFTER FROST
The total orange crop of California available for market following the freeze of Jan. 19-21 will amount to not more than 20,000 cars of 450 boxes each, with the odds favoring a cut from this figure, according to the estimate of E. E. Kaufman, Agricultural Statistician of the Bureau of Market and Crop Estimates of the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
The estimate is based upon complications of the bureau and the State Department of Agriculture.
Remaining lemons are estimated at 2,800,000 boxes.
Kaufman calls the freeze the worst in the history of citrus fruit growing in the state. The bureau's preliminary estimate as of Dec. 1 last was 22,500,000 boxes of oranges. The December wind storms cut this estimate 10 per cent or 5,000 cars, leaving a crop of 20,250,000 boxes, of which about 10,000,000 were navels and the rest Valencias and miscellaneous varieties. Kaufman says:
"At the time of the freeze there had been shipped and placed in packing houses a total of about 4,000,-000 boxes equivalent to 9,000 cars and all navels, leaving approximately 6,000,000 boxes of navels on the trees. Estimates of the damage to this portion of the crop vary widely by reason of location of the groves, differences in temperatures, and the amount of orchard heating done; making it difficult to arrive at definite figures representing the loss. Reports now indicate a 50 per cent loss to the navel crop remaining on trees leaving about 3,000,000 boxes of merchantable fruit, not all frost free but which can be marketed.Miscellaneous varieties were probably damaged fully as much as were navels."
"Opinions differ widely as to what extent the valencias may recover. Two months hence will tell the story; no one seems qualified to do so just now. It can be said, however, that in the heaviest producing valencia districts, temperatures were not so low and did not hang around the danger"

RISK POLICY ENDS
LOS ANGELES, March 3 — By a freak of fate which brought death to George C. Kafer a few hours before the lapse of his warrisk insurance policy, the man's beneficiaries will now receive $57.50 a month for the next 20 years, according to officers of Victory post of the American legion, of which the former soldier was a member. Kafer's $10,000 policy was paid up until midnight of Feb. 28 and he died the foreonof that day at the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. George Kafer, 4619 North Melbourne avenue, Hollywood.
WAITS 27 YEARS
FOR $9.60 CHANGE
SPOKANE, Mar. 3 — After waiting for his change for 27 years, Charles Wagner, a Spokane dairman, has received a check for $9.60 from the federal government.
In 1895 Wagner filed on a home-report now indicate a 50 per cent loss to the navel crop remaining on trecs leaving about 3,000,000 boxes of merchantable fruit, not all frost free but which can be marketed. Miscellaneous varieties were probably damaged fully as much as were navels.
"Opinions differ widely as to what extent the valencias may recover. Two months hence will tell the story; no one seems qualified to do so just now. It can be said, however, that in the heaviest producing valencia districts, temperatures were not so low and did not hang around the danger point for so long a time. Consequently the loss is not so great and 60 percent of the crop or about 6,000,000 boxes may be marketable."
"On the basis of 450 boxes to the car, the total orange crop available for market following the freeze will be about 20,000 cars with the odds favoring a decrease from this figure."
"Some of the heavy lemon producing sections escaped with less damage because temperatures were not quite so low and also by reason of the fact that a comparatively larger percentage of the lemon acarage was protected by smudging. The lightest damage was in San Diego and Ventura counties and around Corona. About 600,000 boxes had been whipped, and 40 per cent damage to the remainder of the crop would leave about 2,800,000 boxes for shipment until October 31, next."
FIND WILT-PROOF TOMATO
In the course of work on the selection of tomatoes that will resist the wilt disease, which causes a large annual loss in the tomato-canning states, the United State Dept. of Agr. has developed a variety called Norduke, similar to Stone, but highly resistant varieties have already been produced, known as the Marvel which is a medium early tomato selected from Merville des Marches, bearing a heavy crop of smooth red fruit; the Norton selected from Stone, smooth, solid red fruit, which ripens slowly, and therefore ships well; and Columbia and Arlington, medium late varieties, selected from Greater Baltimore.
EUROPE SELECTS DELEGATES
NICE, Feb. 28 — Henry B. White, former American ambassador to Germany, and Dr. Frederick W. Beckman, rector of the American Church of the Holy Trinity, Paris, have been selected as the lay and clerical delegates, respectively, of the six American Episcopal churches in Europe to the general convention next fall in Portland, Ore.
The delegates were selected by a convocation here of representatives of the churches at Paris, Rome, Nice, Florence, Geneva and Munich.

MANY IMPEACHMENT WITNESSES CALLED
LOS ANGELES, March 3 — Between 25 and 30 witnesses will testify in defense of Mrs. Madelyne Obenchain, on trial for the murder of J. Bolton Kennedy; it was learned today when attorneys in the case argued before Superior Judge Reeve on the defense motions that all evidence concerning Arthur Burch, co-defendant, be stricken from the record and the charge against Mrs. Obenchain be dismissed.
Seventeen of the defense witnesses will be called to make an impeachment attack on the testimony of important prosecution witnesses and others will give affirmative testimony to corroborate the story of Mrs. Obenchain, who will probably take the stand Wednesday.
The arguments in court today were on the defense demand that the evidence relating to the activities of Burch outside of the presence of Mrs. Obenchain should be stricken out because the alleged conspiracy between Mrs. Obenchain and Burch-to slay Kennedy has not been sufficiently established.
The striking out of this testimony would virtually assure an acquittal verdict.
REINSTATE FAST TRAINS
LOS ANGELES, Mar. 3 — Reinstatement of the famous "Saint" and "Angel," the Santa Fe's fast prewar passenger trains between Northern and Southern California, is one of the subjects that W.J. Black, passenger traffic manager of the Atchison-Topkinn & Santa Fe system, is discussion with other officials on his present visit to California.
For some time past there have been rumors that the Santa Fe was about to restore these two fast trains which were abolished during the war period and have never been put back.
GOVERNMENT SENDS JUNKET
PARIS, Mar. 3 — To give them an idea of the capital of their new motherland the government organized a junket of 50 mayors of towns of Alsace-Lorraine to Paris.
Many of the mayors, whose towns were under German rule for a half-century spoke very little French and that with a pronounced German accent.
The first visit was to the tomb of Napoleon and on succeeding days the mayors were entertained by the government at Versailles and shown the senate and chamber deputies.
A GREAT SCOOP!
WAITS 27 YEARS FOR $9.60 CHANGE
SPOKANE, Mar. 3.—After waiting for his change for 27 years, Charles Wagner, a Spokane dairyman, has received a check for $9.60 from the federal government.
In 1895 Wagner filed on a homestead near Post Falls, Idaho. The land office was in doubt as to the filing fee and requested that Wagner pay a sum considerably in excess of usual requirements. He was told that the government would reimburse him should it be found that he had paid too much. Recently he was notified to file his claim for $9.50.

GERMAN MONUMENTS
LONDON, Mar. 3—German monument builders are selling throughout England memorials for men they killed in the war.
Aberdeen granite workers, along with wage reductions, have received explanations that German competition is responsible. Not only are the Germans said to be undermining British firms here and in America in the ordinary tombstone business, but it is stated they have sold to large cities in England and Scotland numbers of war memorials.
MONEY AND MISERY
A rich man once said, "I owned fifty thousand dollars and was a happy man. Now five hundred thousand dollars owns me. It says, 'Lie awake nights and worry.' It says, 'Run here,' and I run. It says, 'Trust in me.' And I trust in riches. I am rich, unhappy, and hanker for more." "But," he was asked, "Why, then, don't you give the $450,000 away and return to your happy state?" "Ah," said the man. "Did you ever hold the handle of a galvanic battery? The more the juice the tighter you hold."
