Permanent NGO Panel at the UN Headquarters: A Working Party set up by the New York office of the Conference of Consultative NGOs had made an appeal for a design for a mural panel to be placed in the UN Headquarters in New York, aiming at showing visitors what NGOs contribute to the work of the UN. A project in colours produced by Mlle Deville and M. Speeckaert, with the aid of an artist J. Londot (of Olman-Publicite, Brussels), was submitted in December. The Chairman of the Working Party stated that it was the best and most elaborate project received by then.
