postponed in 1962 because of the smallpox outbreak, is now fixed for

in the morning-foreign visitors are advised to arrive on the Saturday,
June 22nd, and arrange to leave on the 30th, a Sunday. The civic authorities, who are endeavouring to make Barcelona a centre for international congresses, are co-operating, and it is expected that we shall have the use of a splendid new pavilion equipped with the most modern simultaneous translation system. Spain can be relied upon to provide perfect weather, and the occasion
should be of enormous interest to all attending. Delegates are asked to make their own travel arrangements. though Academy
