IMPORT LICENSES :
ARE PROCLAIMED
by THE PRESIDENT

Washingto Nov 2s.-President Wilson
tonight extended 10 imports the same
measure of control the government since
early in thu war has exercised over ex-
ports by issuing a proclamation requir-
ing the licensing Of most OF the chief
import commodities.
Assumption Of control over imports
gives the government another powerful
weapon which will be used TO its fullest
extent in the economic war on Germany
II adds greatly to Americas commercial
power. already the greatest of any ma
ton. and puts this country in position
during the war almost TO direct the trade
Of the world If minded to use il in that
way, the United States could let it serve
as the heaviest kind of pressure on neu-
trail traders suspected of using American
goods 10 supply Germany Controlling
both exports and imports. the government
is in a position TO demand of other ma
lions the kind of supplies il needs IN
prosecution OF the war
one OF tile chief advantages of import
control is that it gives the government 9
larger measure Of supervision over snip
ping II tonnage vitality needed for war
purposes is being used TO transport 70
this country commodities regarded as
ncn-essentiaI. the government can decline
to issue import licenses and thus diver
the tonnage to essential trades.
Lumber is one Of the commodities for
which license is issued.

The ranking officers OF the American

have arranged entertainment for the
Americans in and about the town to-
morrow.
Similar celebrations and entertainments
have been arranged by the French people

Work will be begun on the hospitals in

plans involve the remodeing in som
places and others entirely new buildings
will be erected under the government

Mrs John G.. Towne received a let
ter Tuesday from her husband Major
Towne, who is with the hospital de-
partnent of the 26th division. some
where in France. Major Towne told
Of a hunting trip which he enjoyed
with three other officers at which time
one Of the hutners shot handsome
fox. They came across several wild
boars. but the methods of hunting them
in that country are so different than in
Mexico, where Major Towne has
previously hunted these animals. that
they failed TO secure one.
