BRITISH WORRIED BY ANTAGONISM IN U.S.
LONDON, July 8 (U. P.).—The Left Wing publication The Week said today that anti-British feeling | in the United States had reached a pitch where the isolation of Great Britain already had become a factor which must be taken into account bv the Committee on Imperial Defense. RBritish-American Relations. it was added, were reaching a point where it was “reasonably safe” to predict that within three or four months they would become a major political issue in Britain.
