Curved steel frames of extra strength are rising in many cities as skeletons for new shrines. An outstanding example is the Earthquake Merhorial Hall under construction here on the site of the army depot where the holocaust of September 1, 1923, reached its worst. 1t will be crowned by a three tiered pagoda rising 135 feet and will be fire and quake proof. will be enshrined the ashes of 34, 000 persons who died of fire or suf- focation or were crushed under tumbling buildings.
