The latest estimate gives the population of the country including its dependencies at 77,000,- 000, The population is increasing by about 800,000 a year .. This large population is scattered over a com- paratively narrow space of 2,350,000,- 000 square miles, the density of popu- lation per one square mile being 357. ‘With the exception of Britain, Bel- gium, the Netherlands and a few other countries, Mr, Oka points out that no country meets Japan in the density of population. Such conditions makes Japan, which still does not evolve from her status as an agricultural nation, to .seek,an qutlet abroad foi her ever-increasing population. For the furtherance of that purpose he thinks it is necessary to increase the shipping interests, to develop markets for Japanese goods in foreign lands and to encourage the development of domestic manufacturing industry. He declares that the rising genera- tion of the country must open their eyes to the situation and the pressing need of the time, and volunteer them- selves for the commereial campaign in the foreign market. He con- cludes: “Let the commerce of the Japanese Empire follow .the sun flags which are now sighted ini almost every I nook and corner of the Orient and the Southern.seas and are gradually moving elsewhere in the world.
