TELLS OF TEACHINGS
OF PERSIAN PROPHET

Mrs. Charlotte Zu Tavern, who is in
Boise spending the winter and teaching
about the revered prophet of Persia,
Abdul BAHIA, spoke yesterday afternoon
at Carnegie hall on the subject, THE
New Humanism." In this talk the So
cial and economic phases of the world
peace movement of which Abdul Bahia
is the center were considered and the
thought was given that lasting peace
required an economic and social peace.
In q world movement such as that
for universal peace" said Mrs. Gfllen,
ut is necessary to have some person
who may be a leader for the world. and
for central point for the many in
dividuals who are a part of the endeav-
or. The venerable Persian, who lifting
on high the teachings of his father,
BAHIA o'llah. who taught universal
peace almost century ago. has proved
to be the inspiration which has now
made the doctrine of world federation
of states familiar language. Their
home in Akka, where the father
BAHIA o'llah, was imprisoned for 40
years and the son, Abdul BAHIA for 81
years, has been a mecca of spiritual in
struction for learned men, and all the
their doctrine.
Peace is not non-war." said Mrs
Gillen farther, but a social peace be-
tween economic systems. A new con
seriousness between nations is requir-
ed to enter into international peace
and in order that the peace may be
lasting there must be an economic ant
social as wall as a religious peace
When we change our consciousness W.
change our world. A new world con
seriousness will make q new world ant
we will start out on a new basis.
international peace will be realized
through a world consciousness of tn
oneness of humanity. This will super
/ cede the selfishness of nationalism a
1t has been displayed hitherto. BAHIA
| o'llah has said. Let not a man glory IL
that he loves his country but in this
that he loves his kind In such a stat
of mind the nations will act towar'
each other with the oneness OF feeling
which is now seen in members of
family"
