Hideo Ikeda (池田 秀雄, Ikeda Hideo, February 1880 – January 20, 1954) was a Japanese journalist, bureaucrat, and politician. He worked first as a political reporter for the Tokyo Asahi Shimbun, then entered government service, later serving as Governor of Akita Prefecture, Director of the Industrial Bureau of the Government-General of Chōsen, 20th Director-General of the Hokkaidō Agency, Parliamentary Vice-Minister of Commerce and Industry, and a member of the House of Representatives.[1][2][3]

Early life and education

Ikeda was born in 1880 in Hisamoto, Mikatsuki, in what is now Ogi, Saga Prefecture.[1] He attended the former Saga Middle School and the Fifth Higher School before studying at Tokyo Imperial University. Kotobank states that he graduated from the university's English law course in 1909.[1][2]

After graduating, Ikeda joined the Tokyo Asahi Shimbun and worked as a political reporter. Ogi City's historical profile states that, on the recommendation of Gotō Shinpei, he later left journalism for the bureaucracy.[1]

Career

After entering official service, Ikeda held a series of administrative posts in prefectural and central government. By June 1924 he had become Governor of Akita Prefecture; a governors list gives his term as running from 18 June 1924 to 1 December 1924.[4] Later in 1924 he transferred to the Government-General of Chōsen, where he served as Director of the Industrial Bureau.[2][5]

Ikeda was appointed the 20th Director-General of the Hokkaidō Agency on 5 July 1929 and remained in office until 2 October 1931.[3] After leaving the bureaucracy, he entered electoral politics. He was first elected to the House of Representatives from Saga 1st district at the 1932 general election as a Rikken Minseitō candidate, and Kotobank states that he was elected four consecutive times from that first victory onward.[6][2] He was still winning election in Saga 1st district in 1942, when he stood with endorsement from the Imperial Rule Assistance Political Association framework as a former Minseitō politician.[7]

During the Hirota Cabinet, Ikeda served as Parliamentary Vice-Minister of Commerce and Industry. The Prime Minister's Office dates the Hirota ministry from 9 March 1936 to 2 February 1937, and Imperial Diet records from May 1936 identify Ikeda in committee proceedings as shōkō seimujikan (Parliamentary Vice-Minister of Commerce and Industry).[8][9]

Personal life

He was an author writing works such as Manshū tōchiron ;The Shōwakan catalogue lists him as a co-author of Chōsen dokuhon.[10][11]
