2. An organization meeting of the Commission was held at 3:00 o’clock this afternoon. Mr. Zuniga Montufar, Foreign Minister of Costa Rica, was named president by joint proposal of the other two members. It was decided to use the designation “Commission for mediation in the border conflict which has arisen between Honduras and Nicaragua”. The Commission will meet again tomorrow morning at 10:00 to receive informally the delegates who are here from Honduras and Nicaragua. It is planned to hold a solemn inaugural session as soon as possible, probably Friday or Saturday.
