Headline Assembly Unanimously Appoints U Thant Acting UN Secretary-General

Caption Description The General Assembly this afternoon unanimously appointed U Thant, of Burma, as Acting Secretary-General of the United Nations, for a term of office extending until 10 April 1963. The action of the Assembly was taken on a draft resolution sponsored by Ceylon, Liberia and the United Arab Republic.
At the conclusion of the installation/ceremony which took place shortly after the result (103 in favour) of the secret ballot was announced, the Acting Secretary-General shook hands with the President and Vice-Presidents of the Assembly, the Chairman of the Assembly’s Seven Main Committees and the three Council Presidents, all of whom were on the dais for the ceremony. Here, U Thant (centre) is seen as he shakes hands with Ambassador Armand Berard, of France.
