President Woodrow Wilson appears
to be as thoughtful as he is wise.
He knows better, perhaps, than any
in this land all we have to be thank
full for; for he knows not only of the
prosperity and happiness in the
United States, but how near this
peace and gladness has come to being
shattered. And in his proclamation
designating Thursday, Nov. 30, as d
time for general Thanksgiving, he
urges that the plight of others be con-
sidered
The presidents Thanksgiving proc
lamation, as issued Friday, is good
Sunday reading. Here it is:
at has long been the custom of our
people to turn in the fruitful autumn
of the year in praise and thanksgiving
to Almighty God for his many bless
ings and mercies to us and to the ma
ton.
'"The year that has elapsed since we
last observed our day of thanksgiv-
ing has been rich in blessings to us
as people, but the whole face OF the
world has been darkened by war. In
the midst of our peace and happiness
our thoughts dwell with painful dis
quiet upon the struggles and suffer :
ings of the nations at war and OF the
people upon whom war has brought
disaster without choice or possibility
OF escape on their part. We cannot
think of our own happiness without
thinking of their pitiful distress.
"Now. therefore, l., Woodrow Will
son. president of the United States Of
America, do appoint Thursday, the
thirtieth day of November, as day
of national thanksgiving and prayer
and urge and advise the people to re-
sort to their several places OF wor-
shin on that dav to render thanks TO
Almighty God for the blessings CT
peace and unbroken prosperity which
he has bestowed upon our beloved
country in such unstin,ed measure.
"And | also urge and suggest our
duty, in this, our day of peace and
abundance, to think in deep sympathy
of the stricken peoples of the world
upon whom the curse and terror or
war has so pitilessly fallen and to
contribute out of our abundant means
to the relief of their sufferinss.
.sOur people could in no better wa!
show their real attitude toward the
nresent struggle of the nations than
by contributing out of their abund-
ance to the relief of the suffering
which war has brought in its train.

WOULD MOVE FROM
ENGLAND WIDOWS
and WAR ORPHANS
Salvation Army Has Plan to
Transfer $4,000 to Over
seas Possessions.

Correspondence Associated Press.)
London, Nov. "A scheme which
has been under consideration for some
complete for transferring British wild
ows with their families to the Over
seas Dominions and to increase facil
tiles for the migration Of other wom-
en- desiring to go to Dominions when
the war is over, and the abnormal de-
mand for female labor is exhausted.
In a recent issue of the War Cry
General Booth intimates that fund
of one million dollars should be raised,
and 100000 has already been SUBJ
scribed. The pubic trustee has agreed
to act as treasurer of the fund, and
the sum asked for should secure the
settlement of 5000 widows and 10000
children. The work, which requires
careful and gradual preparation on
this side as well as in the Dominions
for the proper settlement of the fam
lilies, would be conducted over pc
Rod of five years.
Close corporation between the Sal
walton Army and the Dominion gov
ernments is already assured, several
of the states have already come for
ward with offers Of active support, and
special representatives are being de-
spatched to the colonies at once.
General Booth points out that I'M
der the scheme, worthy widows living
in oppressive or unsatisfactory en-
vironments, can be transferred, free of
cost to Themselves, to progressive ov-
erseas communities where there is
more elbow room for the energetic and
enterprising, and where she will be
fortified while making her way, in the
knowledge that she has the weight of
the Salvation Army at her back.
He sums up the army's undertaking
on behalf of the women as follows:
"The army will not advise anyone
to migrate or become responsible for
the migration of any one who may not
conform with the standards of suit
ability it has set up through its long
experience with migration.
"The army will provide for the re-
ception and secure positions in given
localities prior to sailing for all whom
it may select for overseas settlement
under this scheme.
"The army undertakes the superin-
tendence by it's own officers or respon-
sible persons, of the families migrated
for four years, or until such time as
the progress of the new settlers indi-
Gates that such guardianship can be
dispensed with.
"In the event of failure to succeed in
her new environment after four years
trial, contingency regarded as re-
mote and exceptional, the army will
bring back the widow to this country"
General Booth claims that the re-
sponsibilities thus voluntarily under
taken on behalf of the women reach
farther and are more comprehensive
than anything required by state regu-
lation or anything that might be at
tempted by any other organization.

AGREES
 RUSSIA BEGAN WAR
Wants the World to Know It; Also Talk of Belgium
 and Poland.

BERLIN, Nov. 10.-Leaders of all parties in the Reichstag main com mittee, after the speech yesterday of Chancellor von Bethmann-HOllweg, expressed virtually unanimous agree ment with the main points in the speech. All emphasized the import ance of the Russian order of 1912, ac- cording to which the chancellor said, mobilization meant a declaration of war against Germany.
 The speaker stated that the chancel lOr's description of the origin of the war ought to be known to the whole world, not only to neutral but also to hostile belligerent countries. They also endorsed the chancellor's views concerning an international league for the preservation of permanent peace, expressed their agreement with such views and specified their own ideas in regard to it. In addition most orators stated the views of their parties concerning Belgium and in cidentally concerning the Polish trou- ble.

Some Disturbing Factors Ap- pear, Following Sinking of Two Ships With Americans on Board.
(By Review Leased Wire)

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.-A con- plete summary of the situation grow ing out of recent activities of German submarines is being prepared at the State Department for submission to President Wilson on his return to Washington Sunday. While officials are not inclined to discuss the sub ject in it's present stage, they admit informally that the outlook is more disturtirg than it has been at any time since the sinking of the channel steamer Sussex.
 Official information still is incom- plete in all the cases being investigat- ed by the department, including those of the British passenger liner Arabia, and the British freighter Marina, on which six Americans lost their lives. Reports from British sources have said that both ships were torpedoed without warning.
 The American embassy at Berlin was instructed last week to ask the German foreign office for its version of the sinking of the Marina. The embassy has not been heard from, but confidential advices received here to- day from Berlin said the embassy had been informed that the incident would be thoroughly investigated as soon as reports from submarines now cruising had been received, but that the German government had not changed it's submarine policy and did not believe the ship had been attack ed without warning.
 Aside from the specific cases about

 Petrograd also announces the occu- patton of several towns between Hir- sova and Tchernavoda. Berlin says there have been no important changes in DObrudia.
 On the Transylvanian-Ruma front, Arch Duke Charles has assumed the offensive and pushed back the Rumanians. In the Predeal sector stubborn fighting continues. with both the Austro-Germans and the Ruma- nians claiming progress. The Austri- ans have almost completely recovered the ground lost in the Gergeny noun tains November f.
 Several trench elements north of the Somme near Les Boeufs and Sail lisel have been captured by the French. Berlin states Franco-B British attacks between Guevedecourt and Sally were repulsed.
 There has been much aerial fighting on the western front Berlin records the destruction of r entente aero planes and Paris asserts that ten Ger man machines were brought down. London admits that seven British air craft failed to return Go their base after fights in the air.
 In one of the fights a squadron of thirty British aeroplanes and a Ger man squadron of between thirty and forty were engaged.
 lnclement weather continues to hamper operations on large scale on the Macedonia and Austro-Italian fronts.

MONEY IS GREATEST
 NEED QF MEXICO
(By Review Leased Wirel

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 1O-The pur- poses and ideals of the Mexican re- volution were discussed here tonight by the Mexican members of the Ameri- can-Mexican joint commission at a joint meeting of the American Acade- my of Political and Social Science and the Pennsylvania Arbitration society at which they were guests of honor. The speakers were Luis Cabrera, min ister of finance under the CarranZa government; Ignacio Boniilas, minis ter of communications; Alberto J. Pani, direcror-general of the national railways of Mexico, and Juan B. Rojo, counsellor of the state department of Mexico and secretary of the Mexican commissioners.
 Mir Bonillas laid much emphasis or the work of pacification now going on under the Carranza government, " as a guarantee that the six years of civil war is subsiding, and MT. Pani declared that what Mexico needed more than intervention to restore or der and establish a firm democratic government is adequate money.
 Tt is not the purpose of the revolu- tion to discriminate against foreign ers," he added The revolution aims merely to place the Mexican on the basis of equality with the foreigners before the law"
 Tn the event of war between the United States and any other nation outside of America, Mexico. is assured that her attitude would be one of com plete continental solidarity, declared Mir. Cabrera. He added that the main political international problem of Mexico consists of Der relations with tho United States
 MT. Cabrera said the revolutionary government of Mexico has followed policy of frankneSs and consistency in it's relations with this country, putting always her, deeds in accord ance with her words and sincerely to reach an understanding with the people and the government of the United States"
