If Jordan should disintegrate. po:.sibly this kind of international control could be applied to the old city of Jerusalem and to other localities in Jordan. such as Bethlehem. Fourth. I think it is well for us to be reminded from time to time of the great debt and obligation we all have to care more adequately for i.he Palestinian refugees. I visited some of the refugee camps. While the Arab standard of life is poor enough. at best. outside the camps. certainly it is true that living behind barbed wire for 10 years is something that no people should be compelled to experience. I would say it is imperative that a solution be found for the Palestinian refugee question. As the Senator from New York has said. Israel in the past has offered to absorb some of the refugees. and has offered to pay additional monetary compensation. Just how many Israel would absorb is not certain. I remember an interview I had with Prime Minister BenGurion. in which I t.ought he had agreed to absorb 100.000.
