MIAMI HEIGHTS, SOUTH BERWICK, MAINE Is Baha'i Guest Among the distinguished guests at the -Bahai" Summer school at Green acre, Eliot, this'season is Mrs. Robert Lee Moffett of Chicago, internationally known lecturer, writer and teacher. Through her travels in many lands, her attendance at the sessions of the League of Nations and the School of International Studies at the University of Geneva, she speaks from first hand contact with conditions and with eminent who are making world history.

Mrs; Moffett is giving an intensive course of lectures at the Ba- ha'i Summer school on the "Patterns of the New World Order." When interviewed Mrs. Moffett said in part: "The necessity'for a peace that will be more than a mere cessation conflict or meaningless signatures to treaties between nations, is essential. A universal peace that will strike at the root causes' of war, building a new civilization based on justice for every human being, must come. "Baha'u'llah, the great world educator for this day, has revealed the laws and which the unity of the human race can. be established, a unity that is social, political, economic and at the same time spiritual.

"The United States of America is destined to -have a predominant share infringing about this peace as it is peculiarly fitted to do, as the- United States is made up of a blend of nationalities, races, creed' and classes and can therefore teach the other nations how this can be achieved on a world basis, "A federation of all the nations of the world, based on justice, economic security and spiritual values will come. The Bahais, which mean followers of The Light, believe that the promise- of God for this Day, is a new World Order of peace, plenty and prayer. And that out of this world of chaos, the flower of a future civilization, more glorious and noble than any before known, is now building." The lectures at the Baha'i Summer school at Greenacre are open to the public without fee or collection.
