Excerpt from Sunday the World's Rest Day: An Illustrated Story of the Fourteenth International Lord's Day Congress Held in Oakland, California, July 27th to August 1st, 1915, During the Panama-Pacific International Exposition

These questions, in varying aspects, have been the sub jects Of congresses and conferences held in connection with previous expositions, national and international, in Europe and America. Since the latest previous Congress was held, progress has been made, but new conditions and new issues affecting the Sabbath have arisen and are con tinually arising, which demand serious consideration. To meet these new conditions and issues, the friends of the Sabbath were impressed with the conviction that a gen eral conference or congress was imperatively needed, and that the proposed Exposition, to be held in California, would afford an inviting opportunity. Correspondence was opened early with representative men who had charge of Exposition interests in Washington, and with the men in San Francisco to whom had been committed the man agement Of the Exposition. This correspondence began in January, 1912, and continued until all arrangements were completed.
