Sorry,  my Canonical support tech found a way to do this:

1) Open Home Folder
2) Go to the Edit menu
3) Select Preferences
4) Under "Icon View Defaults" and "List View Defaults" change the zoom level to 
the desired percentage

Problem solved.

Thank you.

Title:
  need a way to re-size desktop all icons at once, not just
  individually.

Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The default size for desktop icons is too large if you have a lot of
