6. International Bank
It is possible that the International Bank might be prepared
in due course to grant loans for the carrying out of the Jordan*-^
Yarmuk project and the development of Transjordan Used in three contexts: the geographical region to the east of the River Jordan (literally ‘across the River Jordan’); a British protectorate (1921-46); an independent political entity (1946-49) now known as Jordan phosphates, r
We should, therefore, suggest to the Transjordan Used in three contexts: the geographical region to the east of the River Jordan (literally ‘across the River Jordan’); a British protectorate (1921-46); an independent political entity (1946-49) now known as Jordan Government that
they might make informal contact with the Bank at this stage to
explore the ground and obtain the Bank* s reactions to these
projects,
Jordan-Yarmuk -project .
When the stage is reached for the works on the Jordan-
Yarmuk project to be put in hand, we should give a high priority
to the provision of the capital equipment required for this
project from this country.
8. Phosphates
We should watch closely the progress of the Italians in their
plans for the development of Transjordan Used in three contexts: the geographical region to the east of the River Jordan (literally ‘across the River Jordan’); a British protectorate (1921-46); an independent political entity (1946-49) now known as Jordan phosphates. As ’soon as
we are convinced that these plans are soundwe shouldtake such
steps as we can to assist the Company both in the mining project^
qixU in the proposed super phosphate plant at Beirut, s.g* by making
available the equipment that they require and permitting British
commercial interests to participate, if they wish to do so.
9, Potash
We should seek to ensure that the Palestine Potash Company
resumes operations in Transjordan Used in three contexts: the geographical region to the east of the River Jordan (literally ‘across the River Jordan’); a British protectorate (1921-46); an independent political entity (1946-49) now known as Jordan on terms advantageous to the
Transjordan Used in three contexts: the geographical region to the east of the River Jordan (literally ‘across the River Jordan’); a British protectorate (1921-46); an independent political entity (1946-49) now known as Jordan Government,
10, Health Services
Since the Transjordan Used in three contexts: the geographical region to the east of the River Jordan (literally ‘across the River Jordan’); a British protectorate (1921-46); an independent political entity (1946-49) now known as Jordan Government are unwilling to take
action themselves to remedy the g3?ave plight into v/hich the
health services in Arab Palestine have fallen, we should take
the initiative in drawing the attention of the Conciliation
Commission and of the V/or Id Health Organisation to this situation.
We should urge the World Health Organisation to give material
assistance, and the Conciliation Commission to intervene with the
Israeli Authorities in order to ensure that a fair proportion of
the medical assets of the former mandatory government is allocated
to Transjordan Used in three contexts: the geographical region to the east of the River Jordan (literally ‘across the River Jordan’); a British protectorate (1921-46); an independent political entity (1946-49) now known as Jordan .
11. Technical Experts
When the four British experts at present employed by the^
Transjordan Used in three contexts: the geographical region to the east of the River Jordan (literally ‘across the River Jordan’); a British protectorate (1921-46); an independent political entity (1946-49) now known as Jordan Government come to be replaced, or when further
appointments are made, we should consider the possibility of
subsidising their salaries In the form of rent allowances.
