JAVA IS WORRIED
BY COCOA SURPLUS
Warehouses in Holland Filled
by 0verproduction of
Leaf Crop.
snenial r,i.nntrh to r-hn Star

Special Dispatch to The Star.
GENEVA, September LIT is not
overproduction Of coffee which is wor-
rying the Javanese authorities, but a
surplus production Of cocoa leaves, the
raw material from which the valuable
medicinal drug cocaine is made, not to
speak of cough sirups and soothing
sirups to put the baby to sleep.
Drug control by various states has
brought about a change in the drug
traffic and to some extent cleared illegi-
innate channels of equally illegitimate
drugs. This has caused the pfling up
of JavaneSe cocoa leaves in Holland,
not because the thrifty Dutch are look
ing for new and UNEMPLOYED markets
but because the annual crop of leaves
Of the Javanese cocoa plant viii not
keep in the Javanese climate and has
to be shipped to the warehouses Of
Amsterdam, whence they are distributed
throughout the world. On December
81, 1880, there were 1,366,550 pounds so
held
The leaf crop is more or less, con-
slant. and with manufacture tending to
decrease IN recent years the accumula-
tons in the Amsterdam dock ware
houses is not likely to decrease until
the native planters realize the economic
necessity of curtailing production or
shipment, as was done for time with
rubber and is still being done with cof-
fee
Japan has recently entered the lists
as a new source Of supply of cocoa
leaves, and this, in its way, accounts
for surplus world production, as the
Peruvian growers output, like that of
Java, Is virtually constant. Overpro-
duction Is the proper word. No one in
this case would dare to call 1t under
consumption.
