(Received December Bth, 7.45 p.m.;
NEW YORK, December 7. According to a message from Chicago, Mr John McKeown. a prominent business man, stated that the andBritish campaign by the Mayor, Mr Thompson, has caused Chicago manu- '™ r £l s ,*S ,oso orders totalling 1,000,000 dollars.
Mr McKeown said he was informed by an Australian purchasing agent that a large Australian order, principally for radio equipment, has been placed in America, but not in Chicago, and as a result Chicago radio manufacturers are thoroughly aroused. Mr McKeown mentioned another instance of a New Zealand business man, who said that self-respect would not permit him to buy in a city that was so thoroughly anti-British as Chicago Mr McKeown added thyit the same feeling was general throughout the British Dominions.
