The trend of silkworm races is quite important to silkworm-egg producers, selicultural farmers and raw silk reeling industrialists. Thus this study has two main aims. The first aim is to examine the relationship between the trend of silkworm races and silkworm-egg producers in Aichi Prefecture in the Taisho and the early Showa era. The second is to explore the relationship between large weight of cocoon filament-yellow silkworm eggs, which spread remarkably in the early Showa era, and raw silk reeling industrialists. The first study is as follows: A Great number of large scale silkworm-egg producers were formed in Aichi Prefecture, because they spread actively foreign races in the early Taisho era and bred large weight of cocoon filament-yellow silkworm eggs in the early Showa era. These races were bred and spread by them for the demand of raw silk reeling industrialists. There was a fundamental opposition between raw silk reeling industrialists and sericultural farmers. Large scall silkworm-egg producers were on raw silk reeling industrialists' side. According to Mr. Sugihara (a silkworm-egg producer) in Aichi Prefecture, middle and small scale silkworm-egg producers, who couldn't to breed new races, had space to develop their position untill the middle of the Taisho era under the condition that there were various kinds of silkworm races. But in the later Taisho era when the number of silkworm races decreased, they lost their space for developing and in the end were forced to decline to ruin by the defeat in competition with large scale silkworm-egg producers, the panic in the Showa era and the spread of special contract deeling. The second study is as follows: It was because Japanese raw silk reeling industrialists had to cope against American rayon industrialists extending its buisiness to American broad textile industry that large weight of cocoon filament-yellow silkworm eggs were being bred one after another and became very popular in the early Showa era. Their counterplot was based on the decrease of raw silk cost which large weigh of cocoon filament-yellow silkworm eggs mad possible. As a result, the yellow raw silk production increased. But the export price of yellow raw silk fell more heavily than that of white raw silk in the panic era. Therefore yellow silk production played a part of doing a greater damage of the panic to raw silk industrialists, like the case of Sanryu-sha.
