KYUSHU

Kyushu is the southernmost of the larger islands forming the Japanese archipelago and occupies an area of some 15,000 square miles. It is the centre of the coal mining industry. The principal cities are Moji (pop. 123,000), Kokura (pop. 113,000) and Wakamatsu (pop. 57,326) on the north; Fukuoka (pop. 250,000) with which is included the port of Hakata, Yawata, Tobata (pop. 25,000), and Nagasaki on the west, and Kagoshima (pop. 185,000) on the south. On the east coast lies the favourite watering place of Beppu (pop. 65,000). The island is encircled with railways, with some breaks, and the centre is still only partly unopened to railway traffic.
