Abstract

On May 6, 1947, the Universal Postal Union convened in Paris to consider an agenda of some 700 items, among which was the question of affiliation of the Union with the United Nations as a specialized agency.1 The General Commission, having decided in favor of affiliation, the President of the Congress (Le Mouel), on May 29, notified the Secretary-General of the United Nations that a draft agreement intended to establish this relationship between the two organizations had been adopted on the previous day. Subject to several amendments in form and substance, the draft approved in Paris followed closely the report and proposed draft adopted at the Meeting of Postal Experts at Lake Success in December 1946. In communicating the adoption of the draft agreement, the President of the Universal Postal Congress requested that negotiations with the United Nations be undertaken before the recess of the Congress on June 22, and arrangements accordingly were completed for a meeting between the ECOSOC Committee on Negotiations with Specialized Agencies and representatives of the Universal Postal Union in Paris on June 17.
