Adventists Warn Sunday Laws Threaten Liberty Across States
Dr. Alvin W. Johnson told 8,000 delegates at the 48th world conference of the Seventh-day Adventist Church that Sunday observance laws pose a greater threat to personal liberty than in the blue law era. He urged no imposition of religious principles by law, noting exemptions stress the law’s religious nature, and supported only a single weekly rest day as a public health measure. Connecticut led in automoblie regulation in 1901.
