His energies were rewarded with prestigious posts on the International Olympic Committee; having served for many years as the head of protocol, he became a member of the executive Committee from 1952 to 1957.
Between 1960 and 1964 he was the assistant to the president of the International Olympic Committee, Avery Brundage.
He died in 1970, the year before the Izmir Games, where the Turkish Olympic Committee rendered him a moving homage.
