Good morning.
Here's what you need to know:
• Courting the millennial vote.
Hillary Clinton is making a new push to win over young voters and persuade them not to cast ballots for a third-party candidate. A recent poll found that 10 percent of voters ages 18 to 29 would not vote[2] if they could choose only between Mrs. Clinton and Donald J. Trump.
In an interview on Wednesday, Gary Johnson, the Libertarian nominee, was unable to name his favorite foreign leader[4]. And the quarterback Colin Kaepernick, a leading voice among athletes speaking out against racial inequality, called Mrs. Clinton and Mr. Trump "proven liars[5]."

• On Capitol Hill.
Lawmakers averted a government shutdown[6] by approving a bill to fund the government through Dec. 9. The measure provides $1.1 billion to fight the Zika virus, without the restrictions on Planned Parenthood clinics that foiled earlier negotiations.
And Congress voted for the first time to override a veto[7] by President Obama, passing into law a bill that would allow the families of those killed in the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks to sue Saudi Arabia.
• Why trade is so unpopular.
International trade has been shown to lower prices, lift wages and expand economies. But the benefits have not been shared equitably, and governments have failed to help[8] the ordinary laborers most harmed. So it's no wonder anti-trade feeling is rising in the United States and Europe.
The use of robots to automate jobs is also leading to uneasiness. "When they don't need me anymore," one Dutch longshoreman said of his company, "I'm nothing."
• Defending against hackers.
After technology giants were breached by Chinese hackers in 2010, Google made security a top priority. Yahoo did not[9]. The company worried that even basic changes would drive customers away, insiders say. Last week, Yahoo said that a separate attack in 2014 had compromised the data of 500 million users.
Cyberattacks like the one on the Democratic National Committee have been attributed to Russian hackers, almost none of whom have been publicly identified. But a 26-year-old who may hold evidence is apparently eager to talk[10].
• Investigation into fatal shootings.
Officials say a 14-year-old in Townville, S.C., killed his father before going to a nearby elementary school[11], where he wounded a teacher and two students.
And protesters in El Cajon, Calif.[12], are demanding a federal inquiry after an officer shot and killed a black man on Tuesday. The police said the officer fired after Alfred Olango pulled an object from his pocket that was later identified as a vaping device.
Business
• U.S. nursing homes have long blocked abuse and harassment claims[13] from reaching courts. A new rule puts a stop to that, banning homes that receive federal funding from requiring any disputes to go to arbitration.
• Young women in rural India are taking factory jobs[14] in cities like Bangalore, disrupting plans for arranged marriages.
• BlackBerry, whose smartphones were once ubiquitous, will no longer make its signature product[15].
• U.S. stocks again finished on a high note[16]. Here's a snapshot of global markets[17].
Noteworthy
• Hitler's rise to power.
A new biography of the German dictator attempts to remove the mythology he created around himself, our critic observes[18].
In the introduction to "Hitler: Ascent, 1889-1939," the author writes: "Hitler will be 'normalized' — although this will not make him seem more 'normal.' If anything, he will emerge as even more horrific."
• In memoriam.
Agnes Nixon[19], 93, was often called the queen of the modern soap opera.
She created shows including "One Life to Live" and "All My Children," making them relevant to new audiences with story lines addressing racism, abortion and protests against the Vietnam War.
• Health news.
The recent birth of a healthy baby with DNA from three people has given hope to doctors who see the technique as a possible way to reduce grave illnesses in children. But researchers say the term "three-parent baby[20]" has made the procedure divisive.
Separately, skipping workouts might not only make you r stomach flabby. The benefits on brain health might decrease, too, a new study suggests[21].
• Recipe of the day.
Try this gratin with eggplant and [22] tomatoes[23], it's worth the small amount of extra effort. While you wait for it to bake, check out our list[24] of the fall's best new cookbooks.
Back Story
Donald J. Trump's campaign vow to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border has added a new chapter to the two nations' sometimes tumultuous relationship.
Efforts to bolster ties are typically done in person now, but 89 years ago, a simple telephone call was hailed as a diplomatic breakthrough.
President Calvin Coolidge and his Mexican counterpart, Plutarco Elías Calles, exchanged pleasantries on this day in 1927 to celebrate the [25]start[26] of a telephone service between the countries.
A dispute over land rights in Mexico had soured relations[27].
Both leaders needed interpreters, but they each saw promise in the technological advancement. Mr. Calles hoped it would aid "an era of good will and mutual understanding, which cannot fail to put an end to all those needless misunderstandings."
The American president praised the engineers who completed the critical piece tha t made the call possible, a telephone line system more than 780 miles long, linking Mexico City and Laredo, Tex.
Mr. Coolidge called it an "extraordinary development of means for facilitating communication between the nations of the world."
The music at the festivities was also notable. Mexico's national anthem was played for Mr. Coolidge in Washington. In Mexico City, "The Star Spangled Banner" was performed at the National Palace.
It hadn't been played there since 1846.
