Nixon's M.E. Policy
Too Sensitive to Discuss

WASHINGTON (JTA)—The Dem-
ocratic National Committee's re-
joinder to President Nixon's State

man of the international affairs
committee of the Democratic policy
council, said the issue was "too
sensitive" to discuss, although the
President was scored on Vietnam
and other controversial matters.

Khan also stated that the "path
of peace does not lie along the
route of territorial changes brought
about by force and suppression of
the right of self-determination of
the people of these territories."
King Hussein was reported as say-
ing that Jordan was gratified with
the military aid Pakistan provided
last month.
King Hussein told Khan and the
assembled dignitaries that Paki-
stan's response was not merely an
act of one "brother" helping an-
other to "liberate his homeland"
but also an act "in defense of Islam
against the sacrilege committed
against our faith."
