Excerpt from Typographical and Authors' Changes; Index, Vol. 29: Eighth International Congress of Applied Chemistry, Washington and New York, September 4 to 13, 1912
Early in May, 1912, definite arrangements between the Eighth International Congress of Applied Chemistry and the Rumford Press of Concord, N. H., U. S. A., were completed in which it was provided that all copy received by the Rumford Press on or before July 16, 1912, should be set up in type, proof-read and made up into sets of 24 volumes or a total of volumes and such part of those sets as might be called for by August 15, 1912, delivered at Columbia University Gymnasium before 6 p. M., August 31, 1912. The Rumford Press fully lived up to that agreement within the 47 elapsed days thus allowed. A total of pages of matter was set up in type during the course of that work.
The Rumford Press further agreed to give the subsequent printed matter of this Congress the right of way over anything and everything else in its office provided copy was completely delivered to it by the close of September 26, 1912, and to have all such matter printed and bound into the necessary number of volumes by November 15, 1912, or 50 elapsed days later.
