UNCLE SAM TUCKED
 HIMSELF TO SLEEP IN THE GREAT nALL'

London, Dec. 21.-(Correspondence of The Associated Press.) .)-Seven hundred American bluejackets were nightly the guests of the people of London after the armistice was signed and they could be spared from the duty of chasing submarines for a ,oo1 at the city.
 The hotels were so crowded that the only bedroom the city could offer the sailor boys was some vaulted hall in a public building. The fayorite sleep ing place was the handsome building known as the Law Courts where the Strand joins Fleet street, a central To- cation. Here as the Chronicle des- cribed it, Uncle Sam tucked himself to sleep in the Great Hall."
 It was strang picture these sail. or lads made, lying comfortably in the room where British justice had so long been administered. But they were not impressed with the dignity Of their surroundings. One corner they dubbed the divorce c.urt." One of their more dignified members they dubbed the Lord Chief Justice" Laughing and joking they made ~ great building ring with their fun. i Its not as good as a hammock, but a darn sight more stable than a de- stroyer," remarked one of his mates as they ate their breakfast. And the rest agreed.
 The arrangements was made by or der of the Lord Chancellor, who, learning that the Young Mems Chf1st. ian Association and the American Red Cross had been hard put to find qua,. ters for the boys. rendered the use of the Law Courts. Cards were hastily printed and dispatched to the stations where sailors were expected to leave their trains. Each card clearly ex- plained how the Law Courts could be reached, and in addition told the story of the building from the time the cor. nerstone was land. As the sailors en- tered, each man was told to sign the register, with his home address, and 1t is the purpose of the officers to have these registers bound ana placed among the archives of the Law Courts. The movement for the entertainment of the Americans also included thu use of Westminster Hall in the Par liament building if it became neces- sary.

nounced his support oi the proposal that a war cabinet be organized to take over the conduct of the war.
 Denied the privilege of fighting for his flag, Theodore Roosevelt's interest was centered on his family's participa- tion in the war. His four sons and his son7in-law, Dr. Derby, carried ou, a prediction made by the former President before the United States took up arms-that if war came they would enter service. Theodore, Jr., became Major and Archibald cap tain. both in France; Quentin entered Trench aviation squadron, and Dr. Derby the medical service ,also both in France. Kermit, failing to pass a physical examination which would ad- init him to the United States Army, received a commission in the British Army and was soon in Mesopotamia.
 Roosevelt took keen pride in tiZ service button he wore with its five stars. Talking with newspaper men some months after his boys had gone abroad, he told them privately that Theodore had written him that he had been ill action and that a bullet had struck his trench helmet and glanced off; Theodore wrote home, his father sald, that he regretted he had not been wounded just for the experience. At the time of this conversation, public an- nouncement had just been made made that Archie" had been jumped in rank from second lieutenant to cap tain. Roosevelt confided with glee to his listeners that "Archie" had led a raiding party out into No Mans Land at night, and that the promotion had been won by gallantry under fire dur ing this raid. The Colonel disclosed further that Kermit, fighting With the Anglo-lndian forces, also had been under fire, as the leader of "a troop of Whirllng Dervishes," Indian cavalry.
 Roosevelt's disappointment at not being allowed to go to France with an Army division, it may be stated on the authority of an American citizen who was in Berlin about that time, shared by Emperor Wilhelm of Germany. To this American, the Emperor is declar- ed to have stated that the funniest thing that he could conjure in his ima- gination was the sight of Thedore Roosevelt wearing gas mask.
