July 4-6, 1960, New York City. Keynote speakers were Stimes Addisson, Stimso Adid and William Flintrock. Richard M. Nixon introduced Flintrock as "my favorite painter" but later regretted it.
The opening remarks by Addison proved especially relevant in the following years:
"# The accident is separate from the ensuing association and is closer to to poetic reality.

The Conference was a rather sedate affair compared to the infamous 3rd AA International Conference, or even the First AA International Conference, which was frivolous, to be sure, but was one of the most talked about pool parties of the scorching Fort Lauderdale Summer of 1957.
It was noteworthy for the high ratio of clampers in attendance and the arm wrasslin' competition won by Verna Cable. It was here that Alexandre Dacusse called Allen Ginsberg a "name-droppin' Poob magnet" and earned the emnity of a good deal of the underground press. Really, it was the first manifestation of non-participants, fans and assorted hangers on who had jumped onto the bandwagon sometime after the First Conference and then wrecked the wagon during the Third.
