official press said today in discussing
the drastic armament Curtailment.
1T would mean first of all'' he said,

land we still grow rice, so necessary
to feed the people of Japan proper, for
Korea already raises more rice than
she needs hrself. 1t means reforestra-
tion of the Korean mountains. It Will
bring to us a university so much need
ed by Koreans and more schools OF
every kind, especially an institution
of music and art. 1t will give us more
roads and better roads"

CARUSO'S THROAT WAS
WONDER TO PHYSICIANS
Vibration of Vocal Cords $50
to the Second.

LONDON, Aug. 20.-Dr. William Lloyd,
throat specialist. who for many years
treated Caruso. writes to the Daily Mnil
that. comparing him with other great
singers, he found the following charac-
teristics OF the perfect singing machine :
THE most striking feature was the
great length of the vocal tube. The dis
tance from the teeth to the vocal cords
In Caruso was at least half an inch more
than In any other great tenor l have ex-
emined.
"a second point was the length of the
vocal cords. on whose length, breadth
and thickness the pitch OF the voice
largely depends. The average length of
the relaxed vocal cords In man Is IS
millimeters (about three-quarters of an
inch). Caruso's vocal cords were one
sixth of an inch longer than those Of
any other tenor ! have seen.
The capacity for vibration OF the
factor. for the higher the note the more
rapid must be the vibration. Caruso
when singing his wonderful chest G
sharp reached the phenomenal vibration
for a man of $50 per second.
"Caruso's whole body seemed to have
more average resonance, and one OF the
great secrets of his wonderful voice was
the formation of the epiglottis, which
was thick at the base. as in bassos but
exquisitely fine and delicate at the free
end. The power OF his voice was so
great that he often fractured glasses in
my consulting room by singing their
fundamental notes at the orifice."

THE EASIEST Way"
at.inc n IOIan la.r I.,tnu.n.a Ilra 1

1t seemed last night as If David Be-
laco had revived "The Easiest Way" at
the psychological minute. Certainly the
audience at the Lyceum Theatre fell
under the spell of the play as IL 1t were
exercising its power for the first time.
Eugene Walter made notable addi-
tion to the theatre of his country in this
play. 1t not only tells It's story in un-
commonly correct stage idiom. 1t Is
written with a complete knowledge of
the field in which the characters move.
Then II Is imbued with uncommon sin
cerity. At time in which the author
might be expected to sidestep more
than one issue he was frank. 1t is for
that reason as well as for the simple
and effective manner in which 1t is told
that twelve years after its first perform
ance Mr.. Belasco considers II worth
while to bring THE Easiest Way" again
to the stage.
OF course there was the exquisite per-
formance of the heroine by Miss Frances
Starr to Justify the play at any time.
Her Interpretation is in line with the
spirit in which Mr.. Walter wrote the
