The article discusses about the economic insecurity in Japan. In Japan the world crisis found an economy in which things were far from serene. A population which has doubled in a little more than sixty years and which grows at present by 900,000 persons a year, settled in a small, rocky land. Since 1868, Japan has tried industrialization. Whether an adverse trade balance is the inevitable result of Japan's poverty in industrial raw materials, or whether it is simply a phase in her young development, is a point on which neither Japanese nor Western economists have been able to agree.
