Jap ANS TRADE
INCREASED BY
EUROPEAN WAR
External Commerce Has Almost
Doubled-New Route Via
Good Hope Helps.

Toxic. Feb. 27.-Favored by the
European war, which has opened up
new markets in foreign lands for
japanese goods, Japan's external
trade has nearly doubled in value over
the figure before the war.
The trade balance for 1916 recorded
an excess of 35O,OOO,00O yen in the
amount of exports over imports. Such
enormous excess has never been real
lied in the foreign trade Of Japan
since the country was opened to m
ternational trade. The war has offer
ed an opportunity for Japan to devel-
op or exploit new markets In Europe
an Russia, South Africa, Australia,
the South Sea Islands, South America.
China, Europe and North America.
where unusually large quantities Of
japanese goods were exported.
AS by-product of the war, the
opening of the new steamer route via
the Cape of Good Hope has started
direct trade between Japan and South
Africa and has brought about sud-
den increase in the volume OF Japan
ese exports. Minoru Okla, director of
the bureau of commerce and industry
Of the department of agriculture and
commerce, points out that the Euro
pean war has offered a fine chance
for japanese to go overseas and seek
their fortunes in foreign lands as q
basis for future economic develop
ment of the country abroad He re-
marks that of 70 million population,
only 100000 Japanese are resident
abroad. OF this number. he says, only
q very small percentage represents
what he calls the average Japanese,
the majority consisting of labor class
es or women. Such a situation, he
thinks, by no means argues we'll for
the future development. Of japanese
abroad. The latest estimate gives the
population of the country including
its dependencies at 77.000.000. The
population is increasing by about 800,-
900 year, This large population is
scattered over a comparatively narrow
space Of 2.s5O.000.0O0 square miles.

square mile being ,357. with the ex-
ception Of Britain, Belgium. the Meth
