cruisers that brought the party, who
promptly gave US all the desks and Of

sent them to Grosvenor Gardens.
The Beginning of Our Headquarters.
In August, however, additional ships
and forces began to arrive from Amer
lea, and it became necessary to have
larger quarters than those available in
the Embassy FEB handling the increas-
ing administrative work. At one time
the British government contemplated
building US a temporary structure near
the admiralty, but this was abandoned
because there was a shortage of ma
terial. We therefore moved into an
unoccupied dwelling near the Ameri-
can Embassy that seemed adapted to
our needs. We rented this house fur
nished, just as it stood; a first glimpse
of it, however, suggested refined do
mesticity rather than naval operations.
We quickly cleared the building of
rugs, tapestries, lace curtains, pictures
and expensive furniture, reduced the
twenty five room to their original
baroness and filled every corner with
office equipment. In few days the
staff was installed in this five-story
residence and the place was humming
with the noise of typewriters.
At first we regarded the leasing of
this building. as something of an ex-
travagance; it seemed hardly likely
that we would ever use it all, But in
a few weeks we had taken the house
adjoining, cut holes through the walls
and put in doors; and this, too was
filled up in an incredibly short time,
so rapidly did the administrative work
grow. Ultimately we-had to take over
six of these private residences and
make alterations which transformed
them into one. From August our staff
increased at rapid rate until, on the
day the Armistice was signed, we had
not far from 1900 officers, enlisted
men, and clerical force, working in our
London establishment, the commits :
stoned staff consisting of about 200 of
ficers. OF which sixty were regulars

the eommander-in-chie of a naval
force located on the quarter deck of

Imagination. But controlling the

kind is quite a different proceeding
from that of directing the naval cam
