PERSIAN PHILOSPHER PREACHES BROTHERHOOD BETWEEN PEOPLE

A Persian philosopher and religious teacher, Abdul Baha who preaches

brotherhood between people, is presently in Montreal. All people are the

children of God, says the Persian philosopher and they need to love one

another. He is for the abolition of war, through establishing international

arbitration tribunals; for harmonious relations between various religions

because every religion has in it much that is good; for the abolition of

racial discrimination; for establishing an international language and for

equal rights for women. His speeches have attracted large crowds. Tonight

he is speaking at 710?/9/8/ Pine Ave.
