Extract

The seventeenth session of the Administrative Council of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) was held from May 5 to June 9, 1962, under the chairmanship of Mr. Juan Antonio Autelli (Argentina). ITU's Secretary-General, Mr. Gerald C. Gross, remarked that the activities of the Union during the past year had continued to increase usefully on a sound financial basis. In discussing the work of ITU in the future, the Secretary-General stated that the efforts being taken by some nations to penetrate outer space constituted one of the greatest intellectual and technical enterprises in human history. ITU's role in this effort would be particularly important.
