The association was organized it is said. after it became apparent the United States would be drawn into the wor.d d war. and became more active after the declaration of a state of wa with Germany. It's present member ship is given as about 400.
 ''The organization was thought by it's organizers to be secret in its opera tiOns." Assistant United States Dis. trtct Attorney w F, Allen said tonight. but we have had knowledge of it for some time. Credit for the first in. formation of it's existence belongs to a patriotic Texan. who joined the as- sociatiOn, believing it was cooperating among farmers for their mutual bene- fit. The organization was spreading among certain elements, but it's scope was limited. Many good men were inyeigled into it on representation that it was for agricultural purposes. The dues were only . cents a month We have received information oi threats against the lives of many members who refused to continue allegiance to the organization after .ascerta.ning it's req purpose"

Washineton, May l9.-President Wilson outlined the administration's food control program in a statement tonight, and declared the powers asked fer the government are no greater than those other governments at war have been compelled to take There is no intention he said, to Q. strain or interfere with normal pro cesses of production.
 The statement also makes formal announcement that Herbert C. Hoover has been asked to become food ad ministrator, and that he has accepted on condition that neither he nor hir immediate assistants shall receive any pay for their services.
 "Athough itl is absolutely neces sary that unquestionable powers be placed in my hands, said the presi dents statement, 'I am confident that the exercise of those powers will be necessary only in the few cases where some small and selfish minority proves unwilling to put the nation 8 interests above personal advantage D
 The statement in full follows:
 Ut is very desirable, Tn order to prevent misunderstandings or alarms and to assure cooperation in a vital matter. that the country should un- derstand exactly the scope and pur- pose of the very great powers which have thought necessary in the cir cumstances to ask congress to put in my hands with regard 10 our food sup plies. Those powers are very great, indeed but they are no greater than 1t has proved necessary 10 lodge in the other governments which are con ducting this momentous war, and their object is stimulation and conservation not arbitrary restraint or injurious in. reference with the normal processes Of production
 They are intended to assist the farmer and all those who play a legiti- mate part in the preparation, distribu. tion and marketing of foodstuffs.

Washincton. May 12.-All three arms of Americas fighting force, the .army navy and marine corps, soon will be represented in the war zones.
 With American destroyers already combating the U-boat menace in Flu ropean waters and army regulars con ceulratiue 10 carry the flag to the bat lines in Belgium and France. a regiment of marines was designated today to join the expeditionary force and round out the nations representa- tiOn in the field.
 The marines will be attached to the army division under General Pershing, which is under orders to proceed abroad as soon as practicable. AL though details are not being made public. 1t was calculated tonight that With the marine regiment the total American force now designated for land service in Europe is close to 40.- GOO. An army division at war strength comprises about 25,000 men, and up- ward of 12,000 are expected to be in the nine Volunteer regiments of en- eineers now being recruited. The forestry regiment and the marine regi- ment each will number more than r. 000 The strength of the naval force lin European waters has not been re- yealed.
 General Pershing and his staff will sail for Europe ahead of the troops, as there is much to be done CD the ether side to pave the way for final training of the force and for the huge army the United States is preparing to pour across the seas after it as rapidly as men can be trained and equipped
 For obvious reasons no information as 10 the time of the American com mander's departure or his destination will be made public. When Rear Ad- miral Sims, commanding the destroyer force. was sent on his important mis- sion, the first word of his errand came from London after arrival there.
 When General Pershing leaves every detail Of the organization and equipment of his troops will have been worked out He will know exactly what preparations must be made and what use is to be made of his division Presumably he will have wide discre- tionary powers to cooperate with com. manders of the French, Britieh and Belgian forces
