AMERICA COMES TO LONDON,

England is again being invaded by an enormous number of Ameri- cans this season. The principal hotel lounges are full of Trans- atlantic visitors,

way.
Booking in U.S.A. shows that when the "high peak" of the in- vasion 18 reached generally bout the middle of July-there will be well over 50,000 here.
Between March and September it is estimated that there will be over 250,000 American visitors to the British Isles.
Among many Interesting per- sousjilies who have ulready arrived are two of the foremost figures in the radia world who, by, a coincidence, are staying at the same hotel. They are Mr. David Sarnoff, the creator of broadcasting, who put up the first radio broadcast in Amerten in 1914, and Dr. Lee de Forest, onc of America's foremost radio in- ventors-a sort of Edison of the
wireless world.
Most of the moneyed Americana are making their arrangements to synchronise with the principal features of the London season. Ranelagh, Hurlingham, the Horse Shaw, Ascot, golf and the round of the Town's functions make up. their programme. As 75 per cent. bring their own ears, the provinces see a good deal of them, but Lon- don is their base.
The visitors take great interest in the sporting fixtures of national interest. After the Derby one well-known American gave a din- ner party to 16 friends on a lavish scalo, all the ladies receiving presents of jewellery when they sat down to the tables.
