Thanksgiving
Proclamation

Thursday, November 10Th, is
Thanksgiving day. Following is
the proclamation issued by Gov
ernor Simon Bamberger:
Annually it has been the Gus
tom of the people of Utah to fol-
low the beautiful precedent es-
tablished by the Pilgrim fathers
to set aside a day in the autumn
of each year to return thanks to
God for the bountiful fruits of the
harvest.
"1n the midst of war, when de-
pressing news of conflict and suf-
iering assails, we may still find
much in the State OF Utah for
which to return thanks to a bene-
fieient and divine providence.
LET US assemble in our places
of worship and thank God, as did
the Pilgrim fathers, for the harv-
est. Never before have the fields
and the orchards yielded in such
abundance their grains and their
fruits to the toll Of the husband
man. Let us be thankful for the
privilege of thus contributing to
our beloved country and to the ma
tons allied with ours the food
stuffs that will supply our armies
in the field and in camp and ward
off famine among the civilian
population OF the civilized world.
Let us return thanks for the
opportunities this terrible strug-
gle brings to the United States
to abolish tyranny, absolution
and the law Of might, and to aid
in-the establishment of democracy
in every civilized nation.
Let us Ink God for the
safety from serious disaster OF
the brave men in the army and
navy Of the United States, and lei
us pray that this comparative
safety may continue.
while giving thanks to God
for the manifold blessings we
have received, let us also resolve
that we will do our full duty to-
ward our country in this hour Of
need, and subordinate all private
interests in the interest of the gov
ernment in this emergency.
In view oil these considera
tons and in conformity with proc
lamation of the Honorable Wood
row Wilson, president OF the
United States,
Il, Simon Bamberger, governor
OF the State of Utah, do hereby
proclaim and set aside Thursday
November %, 1917, as Thanksgiv
ing day, and, in the observance o
this holiday, | call upon all God
fearing, patriotic liberty-lovinl
citizens to forego business and tc
gather in their respective place:
of worship to thank God for His
bounteous blessings and to pray
Tor the safety OF the republic"

Getting at the
Sugar Supply
From Box Elder News.)

Y
For the purpose Of getting in
closer touch with the consumer
and impressing upon him the nee
essity for careful conservation Of
the sugar OF the country, the Gov
eminent Department OF Food
Conservation has framed num-
Der OF questions to the public
generally and through the Food
Demonstrators for Box Elder
county, Miss Annie Christensen,
has asked that these questions be
given. publicity. The people are
to take them seriously and ans
wer them by carrying out the sug-
gestions and request which each

The following are the points
which the department wishes to
emphasize;
(a) How much sugar is served
on your table in a week?
CD What is the average amount
which each person uses in tea and
coffee, cocoa or chocolate!
(c) Does your family use sugar
on cereals?
I'D Do you add sugar to the
baby's cereal and cup OF milk5
(e) What kind of dessert do
you serve most frequently?
% Will each member of the
family who uses more than six
tablespoonsful OF sugar a day
including the amount used in
cakes, buildings, preserved fruits,
etc, agree to reduce the amount
to four tablespoonful?
(g) Will you for one month
substitute dishes which contain
little sugar in place of cakes,
buildings, etc? For instance, use
molasses and syrups in sweeten-
ing; use salads freely, and use
the canned fruits which you put
Up last summer in place OF such
dishes as cakes and buildings.
(h) Will you agree to use fresh
fruits, raisins, dates, figs, nuts
popcorn and similar things fol-
your holiday gatherings and cut
down on candies and dishes which
call for sugar.
ID If there are five persons II
your family will you agree to limit
the sugar used in all cooking ano

DES MONIES, Iowa, jan 19.-The
state attorney generals office is
pledged to a definite program Of law
enforcement on the liquor question to-
day by virtue Of an agreement entered
into by Attorney General H. M. Hav-
ner and the leading railway attorneys
at Thursdays conference.
This program provides for strict
Ter watch by the railroads over their

quor is kept out Of the hands Of boot
leggers.
The program ends finally in friend
ly action to be carried into the highest
court to obtain final ruling on the
question whether all liquor shipments
intended for private consumption or
resale NAV not be completely shut out
from Iowa.
Havner believes they may. He is
upheld by a decision of Polk County
District Judge Utterback. But a fed
eral court ordered the Rock Island to
accept and deliver shipments private
Or when receipted for by a go-zetween
Of the consignee. The other Iowa lines
feel that refusal by them to accept
liquor shipments would result in the
brewers obtaining similar order.
But the other. railroads have agreed to
try to shut out bootleggers from OBJ
tanning liquor. Go-betweens will not
be permitted to get shipments. The
consignee himself must receipt for
the shipment While the amount OF
liquor one may have for private con-
sumption is not limited by the Iowa
laws an unduly large shipment is
counted upon to give the law enforce
ment officers a tip on bootleggers.
/, The only other step that can change
the situation at present is the passage
of a law by the legislature restricting
the amount Of liquor for private con-
sumption. One of Senator Whitmore's
temperance measures fixes a maximum
of two quarts of liquor and one case
of beer.

woman may know even more of the
leak situation and if the testimony
shapes up In accordance with the
rumors, the hearings will be more
pungently spicy than at any time to
date.
Just how far Mrs. Visconti will go
toward confirming Lawson's state
yment that she told him of an alleged
note leak deal, is problematical. But,
there is no mistaking the gravity
that many followers of the hearings
attach to her testimony.
Majority members say Tumulty
and the newspapermen will be clear
ed beyond shadow of doubt. But as
the story goes, Mrs. Viscontil knows
SO many newspaper men-and per-
haps officials-that she may furnish
a real flood OF light on the leak situ-
alton.
Attorney Whipple was booked to
consult with committeeman today.
While he had not formally accepted
the position of counsel, there was
no doubt that his visit meant accept
ance and that he would at once set
to work studying the line of attack.
Next week, too, the committee
plans to have the biggest of the

though whether the sessions may
adjourn to New York is still unde-
