Baha'u'llah's House at Baghdad What we have already witnessed in connection with the latest developments regarding the case of Baha'u'llah's House in Baghdad affords abundant evidence of the truth of the observation that has just been made.

In its latest stages, it has gathered such strength, secured such publicity, and received such support from the chancelleries of Europe, as to become a subject fit for the consideration not only of the specific international Commission ultimately responsible for the administration of Mandated Territories but of the leading Signatories of the Covenant of the League of Nations that are represented in the Council of the League itself
