Japanese Are Alarmed at Sinking of Land in Central
Japan Due to Over-Use of Underground Products
TOKYO.—-The Japanese govern
ment may be forced to take steps
in 1960 against the gradual sink
ing of portions of its land.
Cause of the problem, accord
ing to land experts, is the over
pumping- of subterannean water,
natural gas and oil in increasing
ly large amounts.
“The reckless over-use of these
underground products is already
causing noticeable land sinking- in
central Japan,” according to
government officials.
The officials pin most of the
blame on g-iant factories which
soak up huge quantities of water
in their operations. They point
out that in one heavily industrial-
ized area, adjacent to Nagoya,
some 3,000 plants have been set
up since the beginning of 1950.
Underground water in recent
years would gush out of the
ground spontaneously but now the
same water supplies' must be dug
as much as 45 meters to g'et it.
After typhoon Vera rammed
central Japan late last year, peopie noticed for the first time
that the level of the land had
sunk.
Government officials note that
the United Nations will shortlv
make recommendations to mem
ber nations to restrict the over
pumping- of subterannean water.
