SAILORS SLEEP IN
 FAMOUS LAW COURTS
Quarters Hastily Offered to Ameri- cans When They Visited London
 in Such Numbers
By Associated Press

ASSOctaItQ
 London, December 5.-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 subma- rines for a look 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 favorite sleeping place was the handsome building known as the Law Courts, where the Strand joins Fleet street, a central location. Here, as the Chronicle described it.. Uncle Sam tucked himself to sleep in the great hall"
 It was a strange picture, these sailor lads made, lying comfortably in the room where British justice had so long been administered. But they were not i'm pressed with the dignity of their sur roundings. One corner they dubbed the divorce court One of their more dig nified members they dubbed the Lord Chief Justice Laughing and joking. they made the great building ring with their fun.
 Its not as good as a hammock, but a darn sight more stable than a de- stroyer," remarked one to his mates as they ate their breakfast. And the rest agreed
 
 the Lord Chancellor, who, learning that the Young Mems Christian association and the American, Red Cross had been hard put to find quarters for the boys, rendered the use of the Law Courts. Cards were hastily printed and dis patched to the stations where the sailors were expected to leave their trains. Each card clearly explained how the Law Courts could be reached. and in addition told the story of the building from the time tho corner stone was laid. As the sailors entered, each man was told to sign the register. with his home address and it is the purpose of the officers to have these registers bound and placed among the archives of the Law Courts. The movement for the entertainment of the Americans also included the use of Westminster Hall in the Parliament building if it became necessary.
