Leather miniskirts and kilts, fishnet stock- ings, white lipstick, prom dresses and hot - pants reflected some of the 1960s' styles. In place of the usual pot -luck supper, those present each brought one item for pizza -making. Four pizzas were produced which the guests were asked to judge.

The Iranian clergy have threatened that these 'newest execu- tions are only the beginning. Speak- ing in the government -controlled news- paper Khabar, the Islamic judge who sent the latest victims to their deaths warned: "Before it is too late, the Baha'is must recant.... Otherwise, the day will soon come when the Islamic Nation will, God willing, fulfill the prayer mentioned in the Koran: 'Lord, leave not one single family of infidels on the earth' ." Iran's government, however, must take account of world opinion. Nations as diverse as Zambia, Ire- land, Fiji, the United States, Panama, the Netherlands, Australia, Togo, Britain. Ghana and many others have joined in efforts at the United Nations to induce Iran to respect the minimal requirements of international law and human decency. Canadians can feel particularly proud of the leadership which our own country has shown in this endeavour. So far, the pressure of that united opinion has prevented a tragedy of appalling dimensions. Baha'is of other races and cultures, in over 130 countries of the world, have joined together to bring the situation in Iran to the attention of mankind. In publish- ing this statement to our neighbours and friends, the Baha'is of Canada want to express their gratitude to the many humanitarian organizations, women's groups. journalists, leaders of thought. and Canadians of all walks of life who have shown concern and support. Many of you have asked what you can do to assist. We feel that the most valuable contribution you can make is to express to your Member of t Parliamenthe admiration you feel for the generous and effective efforts Canada has already made and your whole -hearted support for whatever further initiatives are now being con- sidered. if you would like further informa- tion on the situation of the Baha'is in Iran please feel free to write us.

BAHA'IS BELIEVE It is the duty of everyone to Investigate reality, and Investigation of reality by another will not do for us. Every man must be an investigator for himself. Ideas and beliefs left by his fathers and ancestors as o heritage will not suffice, for adherence to these are but imitations and imitations have ever been a cause of disappointment and misguidance. Be investigators of reality, that you may attain the verity of truth and life. For moro Information Contact Box 1250 Clinton.
