Abstract: Executive BoardThe nineteenth session of the Executive Board of UNESCO met from February 13 to 25,1950. Discussion of the program to be presented to the fifth session of the General Conference continued. The Board attempted to design the program to fit a budget of $8,000,000 — the same figure as for 1950. Other arrangements for the Florence Conference were completed. Invitations were sent to the occupying authorities in the Eastern and Western Zones of Germany and in Japan to send observers, accompanied, if they wished, by expert nationals, to the General Conference. A credit of $40,000 was extended to allow UNESCO to continue for the rest of 1950 its assistance to refugee children in the Middle East. The Board discussed other program activities including the sending of a mission of experts to Ecuador to advise in fundamental education experiments in the areas recently devastated by earthquake. Finally it was decided to recommend that the Conference accept the applications for membership from the United States of Indonesia, the Republic of Korea, and the Hashemite Kingdom of the Jordan.
