Prussian Junkers Rooted In Their Be lief of Their Complete Superiority to Ordinary Man. A Junker Is a member of a noble Prussian family, who belongs to the landed aristocracy, and, as a rule, adopts the profession of armsd and enters the caste circle of the officer corps. Thanks to the survival of feud alism In the organization of German society, the term tins acquired a broad er significance. Hence as commonly used today it Indicates a nnrrow-mlnd-ed, arrogant, and, often, bellicose mem ber of the aristocracy. Since 1SG2, when, under the leader ship of Bismarck, the aristocratic party came into political power, the term has been applied to those who hold reactionary views, because they desire to preserve Intact the exclu slve social, military and political privi leges belonging trndltionnlly to the "well born." Junkeristn and Junkerdom Indicate the policies and the customary round of Ideas, Judgments, and prejudices characteristic of the junker class. They have been and still are of great influence, for they have affected Prussian domestic policies by their or ganized efforts to preserve and pro tect large landed estates; they have molded German social life by their as sumption of complete superiority to the ordinary man, especially to the man who engages In trade or manu factures, while the Prussian officer corps has taken its distinctive tone from their haughty aloofness from the civilian population. RELIGIOUS CULT MAY SPREAD Babism Freed From Persecution Through the Downfall of the Turk ish Power In Palestine. P ID PS GROC ERYCo c With the breaking of the Turkish power In Palestine another religious cult has been liberated from persecu tion, that of Bahaism, or Babism. The leader of this spiritual movement Is Abdul Baha. or Abbas Effendl, as he Is generally known. This religion was first founded by Bnha'o'llah, the f ther of the present lender, and he chose his son to preach its doctrines before the world. Due to the antagon ism of the movement to the Islam re ligion, Abdul Baha was Imprisoned by the sultan of Turkey, who feared his teachings, and was kept a prisoner In the fortress of Akka, near Haifa, for 40 years. Upon his release in 190S, when a mild constitutional form of government was established In Tur key, Baha traveled through France and England preaching his doctrines, also coming to the United States, In 1912. Abdul Baha strove to be called the "servant of humanity." While In the Orient he won many friends by caring for the sick and oppressed, and among the many titles given him by his neigh bors was one especially applied to him. namely "Father of the Poor." While In this country he established colonies of supporters of his teachings In Chi cago and Kenosha, Wis. Ills teach ings have a close relation with those of Christianity and Judaism.
