RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
THE POSITION IN TURKEY
AMENDMENT TO CONSTITUTION ANKARA, Feb. 6. (Received Feb. 7, at 10 p.m.) While permitting the practice of religious faith and attendance at services, provided there is no clasn with the morals or laws of the country, an amendment to the constitution dealing with the guarantee of religious liberty forbids all “affiliations or contra fraternities of a secret character.” This presumably bans Freemasons, Dervishes and other fraternities throughout Turkey.
