Slightly outside your time range: Plankalkül, a high-level language
developed 1942-1946, first implemented in 1975.
However, Konrad Zuse, "Über den Allgemeinen Plankalkül als Mittel zur
Formulierung schematisch-kombinativer Aufgaben", Archiv der Mathematik
volume 1, pages 441-449 (1948) is not in ACM, and Springer didn't make
their stuff freely available yet, but there is Sci-Hub, and there is
later documentation also.
Philipp
[The Knuth paper has 7 pages on Plankalkül, including a sample program.
Here's a cleaner copy at bitsavers:
