All African and Eastern Bloc member countries of the World Health Organisation (W.H.0.) today abstained from voting on the 1965 38,360,000 dollar budget as a protest against South Africa’s presence in the assembly. The budget was adopted, however, by 78 votes for, three against and 33, abstentions.
