Y Tourists! V A The great Buddh;i Japan has become greatly industralized since World War 11 and almost everywhere one goes, there are new buildings and new industry growing up from what was once a backward land. The seaport town of Yokosuka is filled with many different shops that sell everything from soup to nuts including the kitchen sink. Fine silk cloth, hand carved furniture and intricately designed music boxes and cameras probably top the list of souvenirs sent home from the Far East. You can hardly walk down a street without seeing a brightly lighted sign reading Bar , Dancing or Night Club. Not far from Yokosuka, via train, is the capital city of Japan and one of the largest cities in the world, Tokyo. Tokyo has the skyscrapers, the heavy traffic and the swiftly moving crowds of shoppers the same as any other large metropolis. Of course, in Japan, it isn ' t all hectic with the hustle and bustle of the daily routine. Near Yokosuka is the serene village of Kamakura, the home of the Diabutsu or Great Budcfha and many interesting shrines and temples. 75
