...Hugh S. ("Mail Order") Magill, independent Republican Dry, who is backed by Julius Rosenwald in "a revolt of good citizenship" against the two other "slush" candidates. In August, Mr. Rosenwald, head of the mail order house of Sears, Roebuck & Co., visited President Coolidge, is believed to have told him about the grimy political situation in Illinois.

It is not surprising that Mr. Billings had a slightly different opinion than Mr. Rosenwald. The two men are as unlike as their homes.

Shedd, aging board chairman of Marshall Field & Co., came a third million to add to two he had promised for the construction of a ne plus ultra city aquarium in Grant Park. From Julius Rosenwald, president of Sears Roebuck & Co.), came three millions outright to restore the old Fine Arts building of World's Fair days in Jackson Park and house within it a museum of industrial progress.
