Detroit. July 1O.-President Wilson
urged peace reached by mutual un-
derstandirg rather than force and
defended the democratic party as a
friend of business, in speeches today
IN enthusiastic Michigan audiences.
detroit streets were lined with thou
sands of persons who shouted greet
ings and waved American flags at him
wherever he appeared The hall in
which he spcke to the Worlds Sales
manship congress was TANNED, an
audience Uf several thousand persons
greeted hlm at the Ford motor plant
and tonight in Toledo another throng
listened to his brief rear-platform
address
Peace" was the shouted response
Of the salesmanship audience when
the president asked them what they
desired when the present world strug-
giles are at an end And he added
that permanent peace was his de-
sire.
At bipartisan luncheon in the
Detroit Athletic club the president
sprang to the defense of the demo-
cIats prominent republican had
told him during the day that he had
been deriving pleasure from asso IA
ton with democrats and the executive
rccied the incident and declared that
he long had enjoyed the friendship
and cOmpaniOnship of republicans be-
cause being Il teacher, he would
like TO teach them something
All in Same Boat.
We have been trying, some Of us,
ftr ~ ts.4R Il ia
politics as else where this lesson that
we are all in the same boat he sa d,
We have common interests and IL IS
our business to understand and serve
tn Sc common interests. The great
diH.culty that has confronted us, gem
tcmen, has often been that we have
deliberately looked at these common
interests from seif-Chosen angles that
made them look as if some of us were
separated from others and as if some
of us wanted to depress business for
example, and others of US wanted to
eyat business
'I dare say that you have noticed
that the necessity to make a living Is
imposed upon democrats as well as
republicans and 1 dare say you are
ready to believe that democrats are
rs republicans. Z therefore, seems
TO me logically to follow, though |
have been quoted as having no regard
Tor logic that democrats arc natur
ally as much interested in the business
pFCsperity of the United States as ary-
10dy else, So that if YOU believe that
they are not as fitted to guide It as
Other uo!sons you cannot be dCuDting

The sUspicion is beginning to dawn,

utrsionds the business necessities OF
Inc country as well as the eXtlaordi-
mary man,
So / invite your thoughts he con-
lhued, i'm what / sincerely believe
10 be an entirely nonpartisan spirit
10 the democracy of business. An act
was recently passed in congress that
some Of the most intelligent business
men ut this country earnestly opposed

10 the federal act by which we intend
