DELEGATES MEETINGS 
congress is a large affair and that it depends very substantially on the exhibitors as 
well as on the registered participants themselves and not on other external sources. 
Providing the cost of transcription and of publishing the archives does not exceed 
our estimates, I am fairly confident we can balance our accounts. 
Finally, 1 would like to thank, through you, all those who have succeeded in 
obtaining the registration of their delegates in advance. In a congress of this kind, 
that is a very great help and 1 commend it to all national delegations for the future. 
The President announced that the next and final meeting of delegates would 
be held on Friday, 16th September, at 10 o’clock in the William Beveridge Hall. 
5th and Final Delegates Meeting held on Friday, 16th September, 1960 at 
Senate House, William Beveridge Hall 
Professor Schermerhorn after paying a very handsome tribute to the Pre 
sident, formally moved that there should be only one Honorary Member elected at 
this Congress and that he should be General Brown. (Resolution 33). General 
Brown thanked the delegates and said how touched and honoured he was and how 
greatly he valued their esteem. 
The Secretary-General read the Council’s final draft of a Motion to appoint 
a Vice-President (Resolution 32). 
The President suggested that as his own name stood in this motion he should 
vacate the chair and leave the room while it was debated, but the delegates did not 
agree. He said that he and the President elect, Dr Paes Clemente, had discussed this 
motion and it had also been discussed in Council at some length. It was designed as 
a first step towards easing the burden on the Administration and towards some 
greater degree of continuity. He thought it essential, before the motion went to the 
General Assembly, that delegates should understand and consider the implications 
of this appointment and have this opportunity to express their views. 
The Motion was formally proposed by Mr W. C. Cude and seconded by Mr. 
A. J. van der Weele and, when put to the vote, it was carried unanimously. 
The President invited Professor Schermerhorn to leave the meeting for a few 
minutes while they considered his very generous proposal to create an IT C-von 
Gruber Foundation (Resolution 36). 
There ensued a general debate on the problems surrounding I S P awards and 
the necessity of harmonising them with one another, of making the details regulating 
them suitable for practicable application, and of following certain principles in their 
regulation so that they would indeed encourage photogrammetry in a manner general 
ly desirable. Various points of detail about the draft resolution were raised. All were 
agreed, however, that this was a most generous and public-spirited proposal; great 
satisfaction was expressed upon the intention to perpetuate the memory and honour 
the name of Otto von Gruber. 
The President said he thought many delegates might not have had sufficient 
time to read, leave alone to study the proposal. It was, nevertheless, of such a nature 
that they ought either to accept it with unanimity or not at all; postponement was 
not really practicable. He thought they could safely accept it in principle, leaving 
certain details to be settled later under safeguards. He drew attention to paragraph 
11 concerning legal examination.
