I -AMMAN, Jordan (AP) King Hussein has refused an invitation to an anti-Communist Arab "summit" conference in Baghdad. A palace announcement-of the young king's decision was made shortly after Foreign Minister Samir Rifai had told a new conference the invitation had been received from Hussein's cousin, King Faisal of Iraq, and King Saud of Saudi Arabia. The refusal waj announced in Amman shortly after Jordan sources in Baghdad said the Jordan king already had left Amman for Baghdad by plane. No reason was given for Hussein's decision. The wording of" the palace statement hinted, however, Jhat still unsettled conditions in Jor dan prevented the king from leaving the country at present.
