The Council of the ISP participated in the Delegate Meeting
The President welcomed the delegates to the meeting and requested them to
introduce themselves in turn.
After the proposed Agenda (see above under Council Meeting I) had been
approved, the President proposed that some of the questions only be the object
of a first, informative discussion, while decisions could presumably be made
immediately on other questions. With regard to the motions, the President
referred the delegates to the distributed papers. As the different motions were
brought up the Secretary-General or the Treasurer gave an account of their
background and described the preliminary views which some of the delegates
had submitted by post.
The items on the Agenda were treated in the order shown below.
Item 3. Brief summary of the activities of the ISP since the Washington
Congress.
The Secretary-General reported on the start and organisation of the controlled
tests and other commission activities between the congresses — cooperation with
the OEEPE, Austrian work on the polyglot dictionary of photogrammetry etc.
and on the commission work in preparation for the Congress. He announced
that the following had been accepted as new members of the ISP: Survey
Department of Egypt (individual member since 1955), Chinese Society of
