By WILLIAM L. RYAN AMMAN, Jordan (AP) — Here in the heart of the Arab East, a conviction is growing among} qualified observers that President Nasser’s leadership is going! downhill.

Propaganda of his United Arab Republic is losing its punch—so much so that Jordan's govern- ment, long one of its chief tar- gets, claims it now can consider Cairo boradcasts more or less a minor problem.

If this is borne out, it promises | to be one of the most important; developments in the Arab world) since the drift in Iraq toward) Communism.

Indeed that is considered one! of the reasons behind Nasser’s| gradual decline as a spokesman | for Arab unity.

The king’s position is strength- ened by the shock throughout the whole Arab area at what hap- pened in Iraq, Majali said.
