MILLIONS OF BEANS
$4,000 Bags Of Cocoa Coming to Bos-
ton for Chocolate Com

Somewhere on the Atlantic ocean is
the biggest shipment of cocoa beans ever
bound for Boston, and the consignees are
the Vermont Milk Chocolate COMPANY
and the Massachusetts, company. Pres
ident John Walker was in the CITY last
evening and stated that 5000 bags Of
cocoa beans were on the way here The
value is about s1.50O,OoO
The beans were raised on the island OF
St Thome, situated off the coast Of Afri-
ca. and a Portuguese possession They
were purchased for the BURLINGTON con-
Germ in Lisbon. Portugal and were ship
ped from there. In ordinary times a bag
weighs 140 pounds but because Of the
scarcity OF bags almost any size bag is
now used and some of them weigh as
much as 200 pounds The goods are paid
for before they leave Portugal with a
non-revocable letter Of credit and when
the goods have landed in the United
States the money is collected through
the banks.
While there are thousands Of tons Of
cocoa beans in New York. the press Of
ships has become so great that IL will be
five or six weeks before most of the more
recently arrived ships can be unloaded
so no relief can be hoped for from this
source for some time. IT is expected tina.
the beans which are bound for Boston
Will arrive In less than two weeks and
will be much needed in the country
The Vermont Milk Chocolate company
Is now operating about 10 per cent Of its
capacity and is held back by the scarcity
Of sugar. Mr.. Walker stated last eve
ming that by February the sugar situa-
ton would be easier, in his opinion. At
the present time the company is receiv-
