Extract

The Council of the Organization of American States, at a meeting on April 11, 1949, approved the report of the Finance Committee recommending procedures for financing the new building of the Pan American Union. It was agreed to instruct the Director-General to proceed immediately with the building project, inform the Carnegie Corporation of the action, and authorize the Secretary General to obtain loans of not more than $1,150,000. It was also decided to transmit the project of Statutes of the Inter-American Cultural Council to the member governments with the request that they submit observations which they deemed advisable before May 15, 1949, after which the Statutes would be put into effect on a provisional basis. After the first session of the Cultural Council, the Council would incorporate its recommendations in the statutes and formulate the definitive text.
