Sugar and Gas, Both Are Mrs. Mary Gee, Of This
Scarce and High; City Oat
Of Both Commodities Gasoline and sugar appear to have nothing in common, but both are hard to obtain in Richmond, and when you get either, it is in small quantities and costs record prices. Railroad tie-ups are responsible for the shortage ot both. The Standard Oil company cays the car of "gas" received Monday is exhausted. Nothing is left but the odor.
Several garages have no gasoline. Several retail groceries have no sugar. Those that have either are selling in very small quantities. One Richmond wholesale grocery reports a small supply of sugar, while others report a supply on the way from the east.

JAPAN CRITICIZED IN PRESBYTERIAN REPORT (By Associated Press) PHILADELPHIA, May 21. Ameri
can missionaries in Korea, despite the
hardships and dangers incident to re
construction following the quelling by the Japanese of the recent uprising, are planning to "Christianize every
district in the country," according to the annual report of the Presbyterian
Board of Foreign Missions to the
Presbyterian General Assembly, made
public here today.
Referring to the revolt, the report says: "The result proved anew that Japan will not voluntarily grant Korean independence; that the Koreans cannot secure It by force and that other governments, having long ago recognized Japanese annexation of the peninsula, will not interfere. Costly too, was the movement to the Japanese, for it reinforced their critics, disheartened their friends, alienated the sympathy of Allied nations and brought upon the ruthless militarists the opprobrious name of 'the Huns of the Orient.'
