Extract

The second part of the thirteenth session of the Economic and Social Council was held in Paris from December 18 to 21, 1951 to consider work plans and provisional agenda for 1952.1 It was decided to include on the 1952 agenda the question of Japan's admission to ECAFE as an associate member, as proposed by Pakistan, and to exclude other items – the problem of statelessness, the plight of survivors1 of concentration camps and the reports of the Council's Ad HocCommittee on Forced Labor. A Soviet proposal to hold a single session during 1952 was adopted by a vote of 7 to 4 with 3 abstentions. This session, the fourteenth, was scheduled to begin on May 13.
