Hoover to Be Allies'
Director of Relief
Paris, Nov. 30.—The appointment
of Herbert C. Hoover as director
general of relief, having charge of
the entire food and relief adminis
tration for the European Allies nnd
the United States is under consider
ation. It is understood the offer of
the position has been made in be
half of the Allies, and is rather fav
orably regarded by Mr. Hoover.
The general idea of the plan is to
centralize the organization under
one head, so that both the food and
■ tonnage made available by the var
ious allies would be used under one
plan to the best advantage of each
of the allied nations. The director
general would be the supreme ex
ecutive head.
Part of the plan is that relief i
. ships forming an extensive inter
allied relief fleet shall fly an inter
• allied flag, so that the countries re
j calving relief will feel that it cgnies
. front all alike rather than from any
one country.
Mr. Hoover, after going to Brus
sels, probably will go to London,
1 where the plan will be considered
I further.
