I am convinced that the Jordanian Government will not take effective action to alter the status quo so long as financial support to maintain the status quo is continued. Accordingly. I proposed in the Foreign Relations Committee an amendment to the mutual security bill to provide that no U.S. funds be made available for support of the ration program after January 1. 1961. except for the issuance of rations to those refugees whose need and eligibility for relief had been established and certified after July 1. 1960. I am pleased that the committee adopted this amendment. I believe there was only one dissenting vote.
