text_A: The United States declared war upon Germany in April 1917 after Germany engaged in unrestricted submarine warfare against American vessels in British waters. With the U.S. mobilizing for war, President Woodrow Wilson appointed Hoover to head the U.S. Food Administration, which was charged with ensuring the nation's food needs during the war. Hoover had hoped to join the administration in some capacity since at least 1916, and he obtained the position after lobbying several members of Congress and Wilson's confidant, Edward M. House. Earning the appellation of "food czar", Hoover recruited a volunteer force of hundreds of thousands of women and deployed propaganda in movie theaters, schools, and churches. He carefully selected men to assist in the agency leadership—Alonzo Taylor (technical abilities), Robert Taft (political associations), Gifford Pinchot (agricultural influence), and Julius Barnes (business acumen).
text_B: If an unarmed freighter was openly and ostentatiously flying an American flag, could she expect to safely sail into a British harbor with a cargo of weapons if a.) this illicit cargo was kept completely secret, and b.) she had broadcast her destination, (falsified) cargo manifest, and whatever else would be necessary to let a lurking submarine's commander know that this was, as far as anyone could tell, a non-combatant?
NO.
