FUSAN

appointed by the Government-General at Chosen. The population of Fusan at the end of 1922 was about 76,000, of whom 34,000 were Japanese. The Seoul-Fusan Rail- way and a daily service of steamers to Japan have combined to make Fusan a great centre of activity, and the volume of trade passing through the port has greatly increased in recent years. Many public improvements are being carried out, including: the enlargement of the waterworks, the laying out of new roads, etc. Fusan was connected with Japan by a submarine telegraph cable in November, 1883.

There are few European firms in the port; business is carried on principally by the Japanese.
