NEW YORK
The agenda was adopted.
We will now proceed to an election to fill the fifth seat which will become vacant inthe International Court ofJustice on 5 February 1961.
A vote was taken by secret ballot.
Number of votes obtained:
As Mr. Bustamante y Rivero has obtained an absolute majority of votes in the Council, I declare him elected by the Security Council.
2. Le PRESIDENT: M. Bustamante y Rivero, ayant obtenu la majorite absolue des voix du Conseil, est declare elu par le Conseil de securite.
3. With your permission, I will now transmit the result of the Council's vote to the President of the General Assembly.
3. Avec votre permission, je vais transmettre au President de l'Assemblee generale le resultat du vote au Conseil de securite.
4. Judging by the comments made by one of the members of the Co~cil, it seems likely that there will be agreement between the vote in the Assembly and that in the Security Council. Therefore, ifthe members of the Council have no objection, I think it would be preferable merely to suspend the meetingofthe Council and, if it becomes necessary, to resume it, at the President's discretion.
4. Sel<:m certaines remarques faites par un membre du Conseil, il semble qU'il va y avoir accord entre le vote emis par I'Assemblee et celui du Conseil de securite. En consequence, si les membres du Conseil n'y voient pas d'objection, je crois qU'il serait preferable de suspendre simplement la seance du Conseil et, si celas'averaitnecessaire,delereunir~nouveau, ceci etant laisseo ~ la discretion du President.
President: M. Mongi SLIM (Tunisie).

Raftl Sapena Pastor (Paraguay). . . . . 1 6. I recall that Mr. Bustamante yRiverowaselected, by the required majority, in the Security Council also. There is therefore no longer any disagreement on the subject. If no member of the Councilhas any 0bjection to raise or any comment to make, I shall regard the question of the electionofmembers ofthe International Court of Justice as closed for the time being, so far as the Security Council is concerned. The meeting rose at 5.50 p.m. cinqui~me si~ge vacant a la Cour internationale de Justice a abouti a l'election, a la majorite absolue des voix, de M. Bustamante y Rivero (Perou). 6. Je rappelle que M. Bustamante y Rivero a aussi ete elu, par le Conseil de securite, a la majorite requise. Il n'y a donc plus de conflit en la mati~re. S'il n'y a pas d'objection ou de remarque de la part des membres du Conseil, je considererai que la question de l'election de membres de la Cour inter- nationale de Justice est pour le moment terminee pour ce qUi est du Conseil de securite.
