Angora May 26 The Turkish parliament erased from the constitution the clause Islam is the religion of the state ending 11 centuries of Moslem and Turkish linkage. The move, part of Kemal’s secularizing drive since 1924, removes the caliphate and replaces Koranic law with Swiss civil code, while stressing the state cannot pray or be a Moslem. The amendment notes this does not imply atheism but prevents state interference in religion.
