HOOVER CONTROLS
 GERMAN SHIPPING

Paris, Friday, Dec 2O.---Herbert c. Hoover, American food administrator, will soon come into possession of a million tons of German shipping, which will be employed in revictual- ling devastated portions of France, Serbia, Belgium and Rumania. These ships were wrung from the Germans by the armistice commissioners with out pledging that Germany would be supplied with food.
 At present no supplies will be sent to Germany, the first relief work of the allies being planned in neutral countries. In the meantime, 1t is be- lieved that the Germans can subsist on food stored for the use of their army and hoarded by peasants
 A thorough investigation of the food resources of the central powers is be- ing made, and only after the needs of the Entente nations and enutrals are met will supplies be diverted to en- emy powers, should such action be found imperative.
