Jordan Hunts
New Regime

AMMAN. Jordan. May 6
tAP).-Hazza Majali. a staunch
friend Of the West, expected to
form a new Jordanian govern
ment quickly today.
King Hussein named Majal
to succeed Premier Samir Rifai,
the last pro-Western strongman
in the Arab world, who resigned
yesterday pleading Ill health.
The change aroused some
speculation that King Hussein
might be getting ready to patch
up differences with President
Nasser Of the United Arab Re-
public. But Cairo's govern
ment-controlled newspapers at
tackled the appointment. with
Al Gumhurriya saying it only
meant substitution of an agent
of British policy" for an agent
of American policy.
The young King directed Mr.
Majali to form a government
maintaining Jordan's present
anti-Communist policy and
seeking friendly relations with
sister Arab states.
Mr.. Majali was Prime Min
lister in December, 1855, but
served less than a week after

dad Pact. Mobs ragged through

Mr.. Rifai, who guided King
Hussein during the difficult
days. stepped down as Premier
with the boast that the situa-

and there is "a solid basis Of
justice and mutual confidence
between the King, people and
government"

mission for the King was to

U. s. Proposals
The United States delegate
proposed that the committee,
created at the General Assem-
bly, last year:
/. Set UP a subcommittee on
"the area Of international CO.
operation" in space research
that could appropriately be
undertaken under U. N. aus
pices.
2. Appoint another subcom-
mittee on likely legal problems.
3. Ask Secretary General Dag
Hammarskjold to report on
what the U. N. and specialized
agencies already are doing in
this field.
Under his plan the full COM
mittee would draw up its own
report to the General Assembly
by July 81 on the basis Of re-
ports from Mr.. Hammarskjold
and the subcommittee.
