CHICAGO, December president
Coolidge told business men Of Chicago
today that neither business nor ma
tions can live to themselves alone.
Speaking at n luncheon Of the Chi
cago Commercial Club, the Chief Ex-
ecutive appealed for inclusion of the
spirit Of mutual aid in the relationships
between business and agriculture and
in the dealings among nations.
You people Of comm erce, you peo-
pie of tho city, are an integral part
of the life OF agriculture. of the life
OF the country" he told the business
leaders OF the middle Vests me-
tropolis.
AlOOfness Is ImpOsasible.
We can no more assure permane lent
and stable peace without co-opera-
tion among the nations than we can
secure victory IN war without allies
among them" he asserted in urging
application of the principle OF mutual
aid to international relationships.
The President in his address, the
first Of the two he plans to make
during his visit TO Chicago, said he
liked to think of the Illinois city
''as the great market place to which
the world resorts to buy and sell its
food" and drew a parallel between
the biblical story of Joseph and the
famine, which drove the peoples of
the ancient Mediterranean world TO
buy OF Egypts store, and Europe's
recent dependence upon America for
It's food supply.
Compares With Egypt.
The famine brought the nations
to Egypt and Egypt rescued them"
he said. $50 the war brought the ma
tions to your agricultural markets
and you provided them with food.
ately pleasant for the Hebrew race
and some Of the results of the war
have not been pleasant for the
farmer"
Betterment of the lot OF the
farmer depends not on large pro-
ductivity and materfais prosperity
alone. the President said, and added:
Human Factor Stressed.
The commercial and industrial side
of our Nation has been giving too
much thought to wheat and hogs and
corn, to their transportation and TO
their prices, and not enough thought
to the men and women who are en-
gagged IN agriculture, TO tneiT welfare
and to their prosperity. We must
look beyond the quotations of the
market place and see what price we
are proposing to pay, what rewards
we are proposing to confer in ex-
change for the rdworking lives Of
our open country"
Laying down the broad proposition
that "our prosperity. our advance
ment, out portion of good fortune,
must largeIy depend upon the share
that shall be allotted to our neigh
bors," he declared that America must
be- constantly ready to help both at
home and abroad where American aid
is desired and will be effective.
Text Of Presidents Talk.
The President spoke as follows:
ITO the thoughtfulness OF a Chicag o
friend 1 am indebted for the re-
minder that on this day, $50 years
ago, Father Marquette and his COM
panions began to erect the first huts
