Castor Oil and Turpentine,
Enemies of Youth, Are Out
of Sight, Drugpists Sa,

Ugh! Castor oil, turpentine and olive
oil. Richmond druggists say there is
a shortage. Good" says junior Rich
mond. Darn" say parents.
Lawrence Luken, of the Luken
wholesale drug company, said Wednes-
Cay that the recent freight congestion
practically stopped all shipments of
these three medicinal products into
Richmond. He also made the cheerful
announcement that all three were un-
usually high.
EPSON salts, according to Luken,
cost considerably more than formerly.
The shipment of olive oil into America
has been halted by foreign nations pro-
ducins this. Restrictions have been
placed on the export to such an extent
that American importers are hard
pressed.
A large percentage of drugs ad-
vanced in price during the war, said
Luken. Since then, these drugs have
continued to aviate. The solid drugs,
such as salts and sal hepatica, are on
a rampage to catch up with the others
in price. -. .----.---

STANDARD OF WHEAT
(By Associated PreSSl

WASHINGTON, June 2-Continua-
ton of present federal wheat stand
ards was decided upon today by Sec
retary Meredith in an opinion cover
ing hearings held to inquire into dis
satisfaction in the central northwest
with existing grades for hard red
spring and Durum wheat.
Requests for lowering the present
standards, the secretary announced,
would tend to decrease the return to
farmers, while advocates of the
change argued that the producer
would receive more money for his
wheat.
The federal standards established
in 1917 and revised in 1918 have been
operative only under fixed price and
war conditions, the secretary stated
adding that opportunity for fair tests
of their merits or defects has not
been afforded under normal market
ing conditions.
1T is believed that any injustice to
producers of wheat that may have
resulted from fixed prices during the
war will be eliminated when normal
competitive marketing conditions
again prevail the opinion stated.

Memorial Commission Will
Consider Four Plans For
Building; Meets Thursday

The Wayne County Memorial COM
mission will meet in the superior
court room Thursday afternoon to dis
cuss plans of the proposed memorial
building for Richmond.
At least four sets of plans will be
under consideration. Final action
will not be taken. however. The COM
mission may ask to have the period of
it's activity extended so that it may
give a thorough study to plans.
It's final report will go before the
county commissioners. Sentiment
has been growing over the county that
the time is here when the county
should erect a memorial building for
its soldiers, sailors and marines.
The building would include an audi
torium and plenty Of floor space for
industrial exhibits, as we'll as rooms
where patriotic societies could hold
meetings.
