Abstract

The fifth annual Conference of the Food and Agriculture Organization met at Washington from November 21 to December 6, 1949. Five additional countries were admitted to FAO bringing the total membership to 63: Afghanistan, Indonesia, Israel, Korea and Sweden. No action was taken on the application of Spain. It was decided that the permanent headquarters of the organization should be established in Rome, after a final ballot in which 30 votes were cast for Rome and 28 for the United States. The Conference directed the FAO Council to appoint a headquarters advisory committee to which were named the representatives of China, France, India, Mexico, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. Pakistan, Venezuela, Yugoslavia, Burma, and Belgium were elected to the Council replacing China, Cuba, Czechoslovakia, the Netherlands and the Philippines. The United Kingdom was re-elected.
