After a late night talk, King Hussein and Rifai agreed on a new government, looking toward parliamentary democracy and Hussein's eventual retirement to the figurehead role of a constitutional monarch. They even gingerly accepted the Nasser-Baath slogan of ''Freedom, Unity, Socialism,'' with only the slight amendment of the final word to read "A Better Life...
