CARLOAD OF COCOANUTS
Huge Quantity Received Today by To-
pcl1a Commission Firm.

The first carload of cocoanuts ever
received in Topeka arrived at the
loading docks of the W. o. Anderson
Produce company this morning from
Tampa. Fla. Two hundred bags of
cocoanuts were in the car.
The route Travelled by the cocoanuts
was from Cuba to Tampa by boat
then a general routing all over the
United States.
In regard to this shipment, Bill
Wilson of the company said: We
have call every now and then for the
fruits, and a decided drop in cocoanuts
was noticed recently We took the
first opportunity to buy up a carload
lot. The retailers will probably
handle them for 10 cents a piece,
maybe three for a quarter
Butter is the chief ingredient con-
tanned in the cocoanut, according to
the Anderson firm and the cocoanut
butter companies over the country use
large quantities of the nuts in the
manufacture of their product.

URGE VOICE IN MANAGEMENT
Only Remedy Discovered for Indus
trial Crisis, Father Ryan Says.

trial Crisis, Father Ryan says.
'I have discovered that when in
Kansas, to start something it is only
necessary to say Industrial Court
Father J. A. Ryan, professor of moral
theology at the Catholic university of
America, Washington, D. c., told the
members of the Chamber of Com
merce at noon, today. Father Ryan
addressed the chamber during lunch
con hour.
Leaving the Kansas court out of
his discussion, Father Ryan, who is
one of the nations leading industrial
economists, told the Chamber of Com
merce that there is a growing division
between the industrial classes in the
United States today. And he sees no
accepted remedy yet for this condition
of affairs. The existence of the class
division and conflict is necessary I'M
der the present Industrial system,
one of the classes-the wage earners
is inclined to emphasize the con-
flict between the classes, and not the
common nterests-among them that
of production, which do exist.
1.-THE workers are interested in
wages. hours of labor, the shorter the
better, and in working conditions
They are not interested in the pro-
duction side of the industry Father
Ryan said
He denied that any remedy has yet
been brought forward to completely
remedy this condition.
Force won't do it, preaching won't
do it, the piece-work system, which
is only partially applicable, won't do
it," Father Ryan declared.
''The solution" he said, ais found
in satisfying the desire of every men,
Der of-the working class for a share in
the benefits of ownership"
