SCOUTS TALK OF WAR.
DR.. Miyakawa Discusses American
Relations With Japan.

That the possibility of war between the
United States and Japan Is absurd anu
that in the event of world war the two
nations would in all probability be allies
were statements made by DR.. Masuji
Myakawa of Japan, in a lecture Tuesday
evening on THE Japan of Today" in the
Emmanuel Baptist Church. 10th street and
Columbia road northWestA
1t is the masses of the peoples OF tie
two countries, the speaker said, that do
not understand the relations between the
nations, and who are, therefore, talking
ridiculous talk of war. The two govern
ments understand one another perfectly
he continued. and are perfectly tranquil
concerning the matter. The lecturer told
Of many incidents and affairs in proof Of
his statements.
The lecture was illustrated with a large
number of excellent stereopticon views Of
the Land of the Rising Sun and with
the most modern type of moving pictures
Among the views SHOWN were several of
the visit of M. Taft to the island, me
peace ENJOYS of Japan and Russia. the
American fleet at Toxic, various classes
of Japanese citizens, the japanese pariia-
ment buildings and the foreign colonies

Marine Band Concerts.

To the Editor Of The Star:
II the summer Marine Band concerts
are to be simply promenade affairs, re-
gardless OF the musical possibilities, then
no argument can be raised against the
plan to transfer them to the Potomac
drive. II. on the other hand, we are to
have the pleasure of listening to these
concerts for the purpose of enjoying the
music, educationally or otherwise, then
by all means restore them to the White
House grounds, where the conditions are
so far superior for good musical results
that a comparison is unnecessary
There are numerous other reasons why
the drive Is decidedly undesirable. the
principal ones being the distance and the
extreme Inconvenience OF reaching 1t
either by car or on foot. have been a
regular attendant OF the Marine Band
concerts for years and have studied the
conditions we'll. know that l voice the
sentiment of the majority OF music lovers
in expressing the desire that the White
House concerts be restored.
There seems to be a possibility of sub
stituting for these old familiar concerts
other bands in place of the Marine Band.
Don't do it, That organization has be-
come too well established in the hearts
of our music-loving public. If we are
10 have good music at these places let us
have the best. CHARLES L. TAYLOR.

TO TEST TAXICAB METERS.
Sealer of Weights and Measures to
Examine Apparatus

All meters used on taxicabs in the
District will be tested within the next
ten days. according to Col. W. c. Has
kell sealer of weights and measures.
and a. the end of that time all taxi
meters used as the basis of fares will
have attached a tag declaring that its
accuracy is approved by the District
government.
The testing of the taximeters has
been made necessary through police
regula ion prohibiting the use of any
inaccurate taximeter and prescribing a
penalty for the use Os such a meter.
Col. Haskell has recently perfected a
method of testing the meters. AS they
show and register on the face only in
dollars and cents, 1t was impossible to
determine their accuracy as to distance
from the meter itself. Therefore some
auxiliary apparatus is necessary.
