The Jordanian Government has agreed to permit the entry of Jewish actors, directors and technical staff who will work on the filming in Jordan of a Hollywood production based on the life of T. E. Lawrence (Lawrence of Arabia), it was reported here today.
Permission for the entry of Jews into Jordan was obtained, according to the report, directly from King Hussein by Anthony Nutting, former British Minister of State who resigned in protest over the Suez campaign. Nutting was said to have explained to King Hussein the importance to the Arabs of the film, which will show that they aided the Allies during the First World War.
