  • Preambule Aux Commentaires Sur Le Budget 1961
    CERN LIBRARIES, GENEVA CERN/FC/439/Add. 21 September, 1960 Original: English CM-P00084190 ORGANISATION EUROPĒENNE POUR LA RECHERCHE NUCLĒAIRE CERN EUROPEAN ORGANIZATION FOR NUCLEAR RESEARCH FINANCE COMMITTEE Thirty-fourth Meeting Geneva - 4 October, 1960 PREAMBLE TO REMARKS ON THE 1961 BUDGET (by the Director-General of CERN) 9506/e Preamble to Remarks on the 1961 Budget The Budget for 1961 and the estimates for 1962 are based on the approved programme of the CERN laboratory. The speed at which this programme is being carried out, which determines the rate of expenditure and therefore the annual budgets, was first estimated in 1959. At this time the annual contribution ceiling was fixed by the CERN Council at 65 million Swiss francs for the years 1960, 1961 and 1962. It is worth recalling that is was towards the end of November 1959, just before the meeting of the CERN Council, that the CERN Proton Synchrotron accelerated protons to full energy and it has only been during the course of 1960 that the full financial implications of the experimental programme of this machine have become apparent. In making the predictions in 1959 for the rate of expenditure of the laboratory assumptions were made of the rate at which the CPS would be brought into service as a nuclear physics tool. Certain reserves were prudently put in the budget to cover the case that the experimental programme of the CPS would be in advance of the estimated programme. Part of this reserve was removed in fixing the ceiling of the three year period, part was eaten up by the steadily rising prices, and only by strict internal economies were some items, unfore• seen at the time of making the 1960 Budget, covered in the course of this year.

Translated for CWIHP by Hope Harrison. SED Archives, IfGA, ZPA, Central Committee files, Walter Ulbricht's office, Internal Party Archive, J IV 2/202/130. http://digitalarchive.wilsoncenter.org/document/116212 Summary: Ulbricht writes to Khrushchev regarding the closing of the border between east and west Berlin. Credits: This document was made possible with support from the Leon Levy Foundation. Original Language: German Contents: English Translation Letter from Ulbricht to Khrushchev, 15 September 1961. SED Archives, IfGA, ZPA, Central Committee files, Walter Ulbricht's office, Internal Party Archive, J IV 2/202/130.. Now that the first part of the task of preparing the peace treaty has been carried out, I would like to inform the CPSU CC Presidium about the situation. The implementation of the resolution on the closing of the border around West Berlin went according to plan. The tactic of gradually carrying out the measures made it more difficult for the adversary to orient himself with regard to the extent of our measures and made it easier for us to find the weak places in the border. I must say that the adversary undertook fewer counter- measures than was expected. The dispatch of 1500 American bandits would bother the West Berliners more than we do.

Some of the photographs show completed structures already in use, while others are of scale drawings or construction at various stages. Most of the photographs are undated, but it appears from the departmental stamps on the backs that they were taken about August 1955. The original purpose for which these photographs were intended is unclear; they may have been used to comply with requirements governing federal funding of hospitals. The photographs are arranged in alphabetical order by hospital name. CONTAINER LIST Box 1 1 Bedford County Hospital, Shelbyville, Tennessee (1 shot) ca.

    Keesing's Record of World Events (formerly Keesing's Contemporary Archives), Volume 7, June, 1961 Pakistan, Afghanistan, Pakistani, Afghan, Page 18172 © 1931-2006 Keesing's Worldwide, LLC - All Rights Reserved. Jun 1961 - “Pakhtoonistan” Dispute. - Military Operations in Frontier Areas. - Pakistani Allegations of Afghan Incursions. Fighting occurred in the Bajaur area of the Pakistani frontier with Afghanistan (north of the Khyber Pass) in September 1960 and again in May 1961. The Pakistani Government announced that it had repelled Afghan incursions on its territory allegedly carried out with the support of the Afghan Army, while the Afghan Government alleged that the Pakistani armed forces were engaged in operations against discontented Pathan tribesmen. Relations between Pakistan and Afghanistan have been strained for a number of years as a result of Afghanistan's demands for the establishment of an independent Pathan State of “Pakhtoonistan” or “Pushtunistan.” Diplomatic relations between the two countries were broken off in 1955 but resumed in September 1957; King Zahir Shah visited Karachi in February 1958, and an agreement on the improvement of transit facilities for Afghan goods through Pakistan was signed on May 29, 1958. In the later months of 1959, however, relations again deteriorated; the Pakistani Government protested in September of that year against broadcast speeches by King Zahir Shah and Sardar Mohammed Daud Khan (the Afghan Premier) reaffirming Afghanistan's support for the establishment of “Pakhtoonistan,” and on Nov. 23, 1959, made a further protest against unauthorized flights overPakistani territory by aircraft believed to have come from bases in Afghanistan. The Afghan Foreign Minister, Sardar Mohammed Naim, visited Rawalpindi on Jan.
