WASHINGTON, Nov. 2. - President Wilson issued tonight his 1917 Thanks giving proclamation calling upon the nation, even in the midst of the sorrow and great peril of world shaken by war, to thank God for blessings that are better than mere peace of mind and prosperity of enterprise.

 Tt has long been the honored GUS tom of our people to turn in the fruit full autumn of the year in praise and thanksgiving to Almighty God for His many blessings and mercies to us as a nation. That custom we can follow now even in the midst of the tragedy of world shaken by war and nmmeasur- able disaster, in the midst of sorrow and great peril. because even amidst the darkness that has gathered about us, we can see the great blessings God has bestowed upon us. blessings that are better than mere peace of mind and prosperity of enterprise.

President Wilson and Food Administrator Expected to Issue Rules Standardizing Loaves in Weight and Con- tent.
(By Review Leased Wire.)

WASHINGTON, Nov. 7.-An attempt to reduce bread prices will be the next move of the food administration in assuming control of the principal food commodities. At the request of Administrator Hoover. President Will son will issue within a few days an order directing that every baker in the country be required to do business under federal license. Regulations governing the baking industry have been drawn up and will, be put into operation as soon as the executive or der is. issued. They will provide a standardized loaf of probably two sizes and standardization of the bread con tent A bread formula has been se- lected and bakers will be permitted to use no other.
 Fat Content Reduced
 The new war bread will contain reduced amount of fats, as both the lard and milk content will be cut down considerably It probably will be produced in 2O-ounce and 10-ounce loaves. No price will be fixed out right, but the regulations will pre- scribe that only reasonable prices may be charged Consumers committees have reported to the administration that in most places loaves of this size can be sold at 10 and cents, respec- lively.
 It is believed likely that before many months bakers may be re- qGired to add a certain amount of corn flour in baking bread. Dietetic experts are now working out formu- las containing wheat flour substitutes.
