In an account of a conversation with Christian Herter. American secretary of state in Geneva. Lloyd wrote: Herter asked me whether I had heard anything of King Hussein s megalomaniac ideas. He had apparently gone to Turkey and said that the right policy for the West was that he should become the Hashemite King of both Iraq and Jordan. That was the answer to all the problems.
■Herter said their feeling was that he was showing signs of metal derangement. I said there had been absolutely no sing of any such derangement in London. Herter aid there had not been any when he was tn America either
’I said that when the King was in London he had indicated there might come a time when Syria and Jordan might draw closer together, but he had never mentioned the idea of uniting Iraq and Jordan into a joint kingdom. I could not believe this could be a very serious pronouncement of policy by the King."
