Washington.—President Wllbou has

PROCLAMATION ISSUED
FOR THANKSGIVING DAY.
President Sets Apart November 30 as
Day of Praise For Blessings of Peace
and Unbroken Prosperity.
Washington.—President Wilson has
formally by proclamation designed
Thursday, November 30, as Thanks
giving Day.
Here follows the President's proco
lamatlon:
"It has long been the custom of our
people to turn In the fruitful Autumn
of the year in praise and thanksgiv
ing to Almighty God for His many
blessings and mercies to us and the
Nation.
"The year that has elapsed since
we last observed our day of thanks
giving has been rich In blessings to
us as a people, but the whole face
of the world has been darkened by
war. In the midst of our peace and
happiness, our thoughts dwelt with
painful disquiet upon the struggles
and sufferings of the Nations at war
and of the peoples upon whom war
has brought disaster without choice
or possibility of escape on their part.
We cannot think of our own happi
ness without thinking of (heir pitiful
distress.
"Now, therefore, I, Woodrow Wil
son, President of the United States
of America, do Appoint Thursday, the
30th of November, as a day of Na
tional thanksgiving and prayer, and
urge and advise the people to resort
to their several places of worship on
that day to render thanks to Almighty
Ood for the blessings of peace and
unbroken prosperity which He haß
bestowed upon our beloved country
in such unstinted measure. ,
"And I also urge and suggest our
duty, in this our day of peace and
abundance, to think In deep sym
pathy of the stricken peoples of the
world upon whom the curse and ter
ror of war has so pitilessly fallen, and
means to the releaf of their suffer
ings.
"Our people could In no better way
their real attitude towards the
present struggle of the Nations than
by contributing out of their abun
dance to the relief of the suffering
which war has brought in its train.
"In witness whereof, I have here
unto set my hand and caused the
seal of the United States to be af
fixed.
"Done at the City of Washington,
this 17th day of November in the
year of Our Lork, 1916, and of the
independence of the United Stateb,
the 151 st.

FOREIGN SITUATION
CHIEF STUDY NOW
INTERNATIONAL ISBUES BEFORE
PRESIDENT BOTH COMPLICAT
ED AND PRESSING.
MUST DECIDE VERY SCON
From Now on President Expects to
Deal With All Foreign Questions
v Without Embarrassment and With
out Delay. '
Wahsington. A portentous and
complicated international situation
now faces President Wilson and for
the next few weeks will engage his
attention and that of his advisers to
the practical exclusion of all but the
most urgent of domestic subjects.
In the last days of the campaign
Secretary of State Lansing frequently
spoke of the necessity of postponing
action on the more delicate Interna
tional questions because the uncer
tainty of the outcome of the political
contest had a direct bearing on the
success or failure of some of the ad
ministration policies.
From now on the President ex
pects to deal with ail foreign ques
tions without embarrassment and he
is receiving from his advisers a sum
mary of the outstanding issues so
essential to taking Btock of the basic
situation which must be met now
that international relations have re
turned to thoir place of prime im
portance. While It Is not evident that
there will be any fundamental change
in policy, freedom from fear that
any move at all would be misinter
preted as inspired by an internal
political struggle has been removed.
President Wll#on and Secretary Lan
sing feel themselves able to act with
a single eye to the international sit
uation and their immediate confer
ences on the President's return to
Washington, indicate how pressing
they feel the situation to be.
The President must decide how the
United States shall meet the German
submarine question on that one hand,
the Entente Allied trade restrictions
on the other, whether the retalltory
legislation shall be enforced, whether
the traditional theory of Isolation
shall be abandoned for concerted
noutral action, and whether the coun
try shall have an aggresUve or a pas
sive policy toward the peace con
ference; the war after the war, and
the Permanent League U> Enforce
Peace which the President has accept
ed In theory, anl, during the rest of
the war shall America's attiude be
governed by a decldd benevolence
in the Interpretation of International
law according to its own beat Interests
or shall it be strictly legalistic, regard
less of whom it affects?
SEC. LANE IS TOLD TO END
BORDER PLAN CONFERENCE.
Diplomatic Settlement of Disputes
Arising Is Rsmote Unless Commis
sion Agrees on Arrangement Already
Submitted.
Washington.—Armed with Presi
dent Wilson's complete approval of his
course, Secretary Lane returned to
Atlantic City Monday determined to
being the session of the American-
Mexican Joint Commission to an early
conclusion. H« is still hopeful that an
agreement as to the border situation
can be reached but it was clearly In
dicated in official circles that tha
joint conference in entering on Ita
final phase, agreement or no agree
ment.
If the commissioners find It impos
sible to formulate a plan the view
taken here will be that the prospect
of settling border disputes through
diplomacy will be remote. Secretary
Lane Is understood to have found
President Wilson, Secretary Lansing
and Secretory Baker in full accord
with him on every p?lnt whan he laid
before them in a three-hour confer
ence at the White House a review of
the efforts the American commission
ers had made to reach a settlement.
Mr. Lane said be was well pleased
with the results of the White House
conference but would not otherwise
comment.

DIBTINCT CHANGE OF FABHIONB
18 TO BE NOTICED.
Bhort Sleeves No Longer Recognlzad
aa "In tho Mode" by Thoso Who
Are Trusted to Design
Women's Garments.
None of the best winter wraps have
elbow sleeves; all show the arms cov
ered right down to tho wrists. And
this Is an excellent Idea. Last winter,
when It was so much the fashion to
have elbow sleeves on smart wrap
coats huge muffs were popular, and
the arms could be thrust right Into
these muffs and so covered. But now
the correct muff Is quite small and bar
ret shape, like the curious little muffs
shown in some famous portraits by
Romney and Reynolds, writes the Paris
correspondent of the Boston Globe.
Very high, full collars are still fosh
ionable on wrap coats; high straight
collars like those of last winter. But
cape-collars are creeping in. Some of
the latest coat models designed by Pa
quln and Worth, showed large cape-col
lars which gave almost a fichu effect
When collars of this order uro intro
duced the only other fur trimming on
tho wrap takes the form of wide bunds
on the sleeves. Long Russian blouses,
made of soft-faced cloth ond bordered
with fur, will be fashionable for girls.
These will bo knee-length nnd cut al
most straight from neck to hem, n wide
sash of embroidered and fringed silk
banding them In at the waist. The Rus
slan-blouse-coatees are extremely be
coming to slender figures, and they look
most attractive when worn over ankle
length plaited skirts. Premet Is one of
the important dressmokers who has
made the Russian blouse popular this
year.
She Is .making tho loveliest Indoor
costumes In this style, with tho long
tunic blouse In crepe do chine und the
skirt underneath In accordion plented
satin. Rich borders of fur aro Intro
duced on the tunics and tho most cost-
ly embroideries In which silver nnd
gold threads piny an Important role.
An exqulslto Premet model was ex
pressed In navy blue chiffon nnd char
nieuse In the same color. The knee
length Russian-tunic was made of the
chiffon, ami It was bordered all around
with Intricate embroideries worked In
platinum threads. At the extreme edge
there wns o bqrder of skunk, nnd the
charmeuso skirt was closely plaited.
An effective sush made of puce-red
Indian silk wns wound round tho waist,
n bright crimson rose being stuck Into
Its folds. All women, nnd girls, will be
glad to know thnt long straight tunics
nre once more fnshionable. The Purl
slan dressmakers call these garments
"chemise-tunics," nnif It Is un excellent
nftme, for they are really cut Ilka a
very full chemise.
Everything depends on Just how
such tunics are worn, nnd how the
sash —always of somo strongly con
trasting color —Is tied.
Fur trimmings aro more popular
than ever; for conts, dresses, hats and
wraps. All the newest millinery mod
els show effective bunds of fur —somo-
where. Take for example tho original
model which I have sketched this
week.
Tills Is a Lewis design and Chinese
In type. The hnt Itself wus made of
black panne, and the trimming con
sisted of a narrow border and, on the
top, a cabochon of ermine. It was an
amazingly chic model and one which
should bo worn pulled right down
over the forehead.
Big velvet tam-o'-shnnfers are fash
ionable as ever, and they nre univer
sally becoming. The most comfortable
models nre those made on generous
lines, with an Invisible band of elastic
to hold the cap In place on the head.
These hats —and, lndewl, hats and caps
of all kinds—are worn pulled down
over the forehead, slightly tilted over
one eye.
Dlrectoire slinpeM In neutral-tinted
felt nre popular with the smartest I'a
rlslennes. These little hat* are al
most always accompanied by a circu
lar veil made of cobweb net and bor
dered with fine metallic embroidery.
* Fur on Veil*.
Fur-trimmed veils nre to be worn
and they arc extremely attractive with
autumn hats. Sometimes they are
edged with a single band of fur, some
times with three narrow bunds.

The marches of tho Fifth may bo
