The postwar Japanese econom- ic miracle, from war devasta- tion in 1945 to the world's third largest economic power today, ' has been built largely on ready access to cheap overseas raw ' materials. TURN THE tap off for any major basic commodity - as the Arabs have done with oil - and the repercussions for Japan are far-reaching. When Arab producers decided to use their oil as a political weapon in the battle against Israel, Japan's weakness w a s quickly exposed. The first effect was to destroy the image of the all-powerful yen. It has been devalued in foreign exchange market dealings in a switch to the much-abused Amer- ican dollar. JAPAN'S EXTERNAL reserves have been stripped of billions of dollars partly as a result, and this decline is expected to con- tinue into next year. The balance of payments pic- ture has been getting gloomier each month and is likely to get worse as cuts in industrial pro- duction bite into the exports on which Japan depends for econ- omic survival. There has been an escalatio-i of the country's chronic inflation and signs of public panic in stampedes to hoard basic neces- sities of life. ZERO ECONOMIC growth - when the nation is accustomed to something around 10 per cent a year and considers five per cent a recession - is predicted for the next few months at least. Politically, Prime Minister Ka- kuei Tanaka has had to abar- don his ambitious, costly plans for rebuilding Japan, and inter- nationally, the Japanese h a v e demonstrated that, when threat- ened with a cutoff of vital raw materials, they are willing to sacrifice basic tenets of their foreign policy. With the economy threatening to collapse like a house of cards under the Arab oil threats, the Tokyo government has been forc- ed to abandon its traditional fence-straddling posture in world affairs and take sides in a con- flict thousands of miles away. OIL PROVIDES 77 per cent of Japan's energy needs, over 99 per cent of it having 4o be im- ported. The government has or- dered a crash program to seek alternative energy sources, but it will be years before the na- tions dependence on oil can be significantly lessened. Arab producers supply 42 per cent of Japanese oil imports and these have largely been subject to restrictions because this coun- try was not considered sufficient- ly pro-Arab. In addition, most of the oil is handled by major Western oil companies who in many cases are applying even severer oil restrictions than the Arabs. As a result, Japan faced a long, hard winter of dwindling supplies and fast shrinking re- serves.
