He wrote out a scheme by which he pro- posed that all the American ships and nearly all the ships of the allies should be placed under the con*=' of a direc- tor general of relief, and he also pro- posed that he (Hoover) should be the director of relief. “If the proposition had stopped there, 1t vould have appeared that Hoover was | trying to get control for the benefit of America. “Buv it did not stop there. Mr. Hoo- | ver further suggested that the director general should be under the control of the supreme war council, which was dominated by Great Britain.
