The new Shah is now about thirty-five,
but his accession to the throne Is an an
omaly in that his mother did not belong to
the Kajar dynasty. 1t has been maintained
by the mullahs that only the son of a Kajar
princess could become shah. They have de-
cided. however. that Mohamed Ali Mira is
a Kajar because his father was. The new
shah received what is termed European
education. He speaks French fuently. His
knowledge Of English Is elementary. His
Persian tutors were innumerable in the days
when he was Vail Aid. or crown prince.
and resided at Tabriz in a palace noted for
the beauty of its gardens. Much was made
of the faith in the present shah's training.
Accommodation is, Of course the religion
of the land today. But Persia adhereS to
that sect within the faith known as Shiite.
The new shah, consequently. regards All.
first cousin and son-in-law of Mohamed, as
the true successor of the prophet. This sets
ish sultan, upholder of the Sunnite sect of
Islam. The Mohammedan world Is thus rent
by schism. But when he was merely Vail

trination with the heresies Of Babism The
public square outside his palace at Tabriz
was the scene of the execution of the Bah

that has been deemed ominous, the Bah 8
three names were the same as those of the
new shah. His majesty the king Of kings
and light of the world is called Mohamed
