Administrative General Assembly: The General Assembly was held on 4 September 1958 at the Palais d'Egmont, a meeting of the Executive Council having been held two days previously. The proceedings were published in the September issue of "International Associations", together with the results of the election for members of the Executive Council and the names of 15 persons who had been elected as new members of the UIA; the number of the latter was thus brought to 92, representing 26 countries, as against the statutory maximum of 100.

Conference of Corresponding Organizations: The success of this conference, which was held in Brusssels on 3 and 4 September, with representatives of nearly 60 international non-governmental organizations and some ten inter-governmental, bore witness both to the standing of the UIA and to the importance of the subject under discussion, namely "The Future of International Non-Governmental Organisations - their difficulties - their contribution towards understanding between peoples", which is a primary concern of the UIA.

A detailed report of the conference appeared in the September issue of "International Associations".
