Extract

At a meeting on December 1, the Council of the Organization of American States considered a draft agreement between the Council and the Pan American Institute of Geography and History and approved recommendations by which the Institute was to be considered an Inter-American Specialized Organization under Article 96 of the Charter of the Organization. On a United States motion, the Council appointed a Special Committee to consider the subject of specialized inter-American conferences and to recommend to the Council a procedure for the convening of such conferences. The chairman of the Council (Corominas) notified the members that fourteen governments had appointed representatives to the American Committee on Dependent Territories and that in accordance with Resolution XXXIII of the Ninth International Conference of American States the Council should convoke the committee.
