³⁵ In August 1923 the arsenals of Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, and Kokura surveyed their workers and found that 35.4 per cent had engaged in farming prior to that job. The Bureau of Social Affairs in Osaka studied 90,000 workers in six industries and found only 18,000 had the previous occupation of farmer. A 1921 study of discharged coal miners in Hokkaido and Kyushu showed 35 per cent of them returning to agriculture. Harada, Labor Conditions in Japan, 99–101.
