BR is "... very concerned about the increase in tension between the Arab states and Israel and about the continued suffering of the Arab Palestinian refugees." BR asks "... if it would be possible for the administration of the Gaza Strip to be placed under the jurisdiction of King Hussein...."

Typed on a different typewriter, a postscript states: "May I suggest that the transference of the Gaza Strip should be done with the consent of the Arab League and under their joint supervision?"

Also present is a copy of the letter, TL(CAR), minus the postscript.
