Hussein to Visit LBJ at White House
President Johnson will meet with King Hussein of Jordan at the White House on Wednesday to discuss the Mideast crisis. Hussein, in New York for the UN, presses for Israeli withdrawal from Jordanian land west of the Jordan River and for direct peace talks. The visit comes as U.S. aid to Jordan, totaling about 45 million dollars in fiscal 1967, faces review amid regional strains and refugee concerns. The meeting aims to exchange views on aid, refugees, and the broader war-terminating settlement as Johnson and Kosygin plan further talks.
