Notes Indicate
Forecast of Death

STOCKHOLM, Sweden, Oct.
l9 (AP)-The personal notes
Of the late United Nations
Secretary Dag Hammarskjold
were published here yesterday
almost unedited In a volume
called Road Signs" The final
notes indicate he had a strong
premonition Of death.
Mr.. Hammarskjold, who died
in an air crash in Africa in
September 1861. left the manu-
script behind in his New York
apartment with q note to a
close friend, Left Belfrage, say
ing he could publish the per-
sonal notes "if you deem them
worthy"
The notes consist largely of
poems, some dating back to
1925, aphorisms and prose po-
etry. A central point is his
quest for God. Mr.. Hammer
skjold-outwardly the image OF
the impeccable high official
gives the impression that he
looked upon himself as chos'
en- martyr. If not q saint OF
even q new Messiah.
Mr.. Hammarskjold's final
note was written only a few
weeks before his fatal crash
The portrait revealed in the
notes is that Of a tormented,
lonely and death-haunted man,
expecting the end at any time
but mastering courage to fight
on for his mission. The final
noted before the last trip in
dictate a strong premonition of
imminent death.

Originution Of Hello
Attributed to Edison

NEW YORK (AP).-"Hello"
as a conventional form of
greeting on the telephone is
believed to have been original
ed by Thomas A. Edison, who
invented many other things.
The forerunner Of the word
probably was "hallow" with the
accent on the second syllable,
known as a sailors hail" In
the 18th century, the common
form was ''halloo" "Hullo. "
In Shakespeare's work are
found halloo, hillo, hilloa, hoIla,
holloa, and hollo. The spelling
hello" does not occur in litera-
ture until after 1880.

Reports of Friction
Mr.. Wirth's retirement and

NEW DELHI, Oct. 10
(AP).-The In dian political
scene is In its greatest confu-
sion since independence l6
years ago.
Out of this turmoil could
come the pattern of politics to
follow Jawaharlal Nehru. He 1:
talking about strengthening
\ the dedication of his Congress
Party to socialism. But stronl
forces could drag Indian policy
to the right.
Socialists outside the Con-
gress Party are waning in pow
er. The struggle between ele-
ments Of the Indian Commu-
mist Party looking toward Mos
COW and toward Peking is
sharpening. harming the party's
prospects. The fanatical Hindu
right is gaining in some areas.
Mr.. Nehru'S Congress Party
Is the only national machine
able to sweep n ational cleo
tons. Part of its hold on India
comes from Nehru's trem-e n
dous popular appeal. 1t goes
beyond party politics because
he led India to independence.
See Nehru firing
Mr.. Nehru's closest colleag-
ues now are thinking and
speaking privately in terms of
his having only a few more
years to rule India. As he -nears
his 74th birthday, Mr.. Nehru
looks like a tired man.
He surprised everyone by the
vigor with which he recently
revised his cabinet and six
state governments.
Mr.. Nehru acted under the
plan of the former chief min
lister of Madras State, Kumar-
aswami Kamaraj Nadar. Mr..
Kamarat wanted to resign in
order to devote himself to re-
building the Congress Party in
Madras. He suggested that his
idea of top politicians stepping
from office into party work
might be beneficial in OF h e r
parts of India. The party gave
Mr.. Nehru power to accept res
lignations of ministers who
might be more useful in party
work. With few leaders really
wanting to resign, Mr.. Nehru in
effect fired several.
He dropped from his cabinet
two contenders for the success
sion as prime minister. They
are Morarji r. Desai and Lal
Bahadur Shastri.
Stronger Party Hold
A third departure was by S.
K. Patti, a tough politician.
High-r anking colleagues say
the maraj plans conse-
quences of party strife were
not thought through.
Mr.. Desai and Mr.. Patil are
relatively rightist in the Con-
gress Party. Their custer from
the cabinet was aSsum e d by
some to be a result of machi-
nations by v. K. Krishna Me-
mon, former defense minister
who leads the party's pro-Com-
munist left.
Party 'inSiderS point out,
however, that pushing men like
Mr.. Desai and Mr.. Patti into
party work has caused them to
strengthen their hold on party
power.
Mr.. Krishna Menon's friends
are a waning influence in the
party, which will determine
who will make policy after
Nehru.

net requirements show little
