Abstract
WARSAW MEETING THE International Meteorological Conference is an assembly, which meets every six years, of the directors of meteorological services in all parts of the world. A meeting was due in 1935, and by invitation of Dr. J. Lugeon, director of the National Meteorological Service of Poland, it was held in the Palais Stasjic, Warsaw, on September 6–13 under the presidency of Prof. E. van Everdingen. The conference was formally opened by the President of the Republic of Poland on September 6, and an address of welcome was delivered by the Minister of Communications. Only directors can be members of the full conference, but much of the detailed work of organisation is carried out by commissions nominated for special subjects, and each commission is composed of those meteorologists who are most expert in the work of the commission. Meetings of nearly all the commissions were held either in Warsaw before and during the main conference, or in Danzig during the preceding week.
