Abstract: The twenty-ninth session of the Executive Board of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, Paris, March 13–April 7, 1952, devoted most of its attention to the draft program and budget for 1953 and 1954. In presenting the drafts, the Secretary-General (Torres-Bodet) pointed out that they had been prepared, insofar as possible, to allow for a probable gap between UNESCO's actual resources and its theoretical budget brought about by members in arrears in contributions. In addition, the suggestions of the General Conference and the Economic and Social Council on program priorities had been followed. If UNESCO were to maintain its present level of activity, he continued, it would be necessary for the assessed budgets for each of the years 1953 and 1954 to be $9,895,029, an increase of $1,267,029 each year over the 1952 figure. Any expansion of the program, and the Director-General several times expressed opposition to stabilizing the program at its present level, would involve an even greater increase.
