Tenth Meeting GCB June 2, 1913, page 239

“PAPAL INFALLIBILITY” was the interesting topic. GCB June 2, 1913, page 239.14

Elder C. S. Longacre, assistant secretary of the Religious Liberty Department of the General Conference, read a paper on the subject, in which he quoted from authentic sources such statements and decrees as could be relied upon to determine the correct position that should be taken by Seventh-day Adventists when dealing with this subject. In the discussion which followed, in which workers laboring in Catholic countries of Europe and South America took part, many items of practical interest were set forth.

Fifth Meeting GCB June 2, 1913, page 239

The chair called the meeting to order at 8 A. M., May 28. A partial report of the committee on science equipment for colleges was presented by its chairman, L. H. Wood, with duplicate copies of the detailed part in the hands of the assembly. It was favorably discussed by Professors Derby, Olsen, and E. G. Salisbury, the speakers confining their remarks chiefly to the idea that when we give science the same attention, and place its work on the same thorough basis, as we do the study of God’s Word in written form, and as represented in history, we shall realize more fully the spiritual standards for our schools set forth in the spirit of prophecy, and shall attract and hold more of our brightest and best young people, who would otherwise drift into the world. The recommendations attached to this report were referred to the committee on plans. GCB June 2, 1913, page 239.16

A partial report of the committee on library was also submitted by its chairman, J. N. Anderson, acting for the original chairman, H. R. Salisbury. There not being time to discuss this report, it was referred to the committee on plans. GCB June 2, 1913, page 239.17
