Miwa Juso - Miwa Juso

Politician. Born in Fukuoka Prefecture on December 15, 1894. Graduated from the Faculty of Law at Tokyo Imperial University. While at university, he joined the Shinjinkai. After graduation, he founded the Shakai Shisosha, and in 1926 (Taisho 15), he became the first secretary-general of the Labor and Farmer Party, and after the party split, the Japan Labor and Farmer Party. In the 1937 (Showa 12) general election, he ran as a candidate for the Social Mass Party, and was elected (Tokyo 5th district). He then planned to merge the Social Mass Party and the Tohokai, and joined the leadership of the Imperial Rule Assistance Association and the Great Japan Industrial Patriotic Association.

He worked to unify the two parties.
