Mr. Nehru, who was 74 No vember 14, has recently con-1 founded observers by appearing robusa and physically fit one day and visibly stooped, aged and failing the next. Especially In public appearances and be fore Parliament, Mr. Nehru manages to give an Impression of durability that makes the j conundrum of of who will suc | ceed him sound premature. But | this apparent vigor is contra i dieted by frequent reports that ! he has dosed off or let his mind wander during meetings and j interviews. The fact Is that Mr. Nehru* has never fully recovered from an attack of pyelo-nephritis 18 months ago. According to sources close to the Prime Min ister’s residence, the acute kid ney infection that then disa bled him has become chronic. A not uncommon ailment' ' among the elderly, it is custom-1 arily treated by surgery to I remove prostatic obstruction. Former British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan undertook: such an operation shortly be fore he resigned In October. According to authoritative sources, Mr. Nehru has persist ently refused to undergo this j operation. At best It would In volve his absence from official duties for some months. But it might also mean he would have to step down permanently from active leadership. Mr. Macmll-j lan, who is five years younger, 1 was forced to do so. Instead Mr. Nehru has been prescribed antibiotics and ex-j tremely painful periodic treat ments to reduce the amount of ; NEWS OF MUSIC Montovani's Tunes Are Light and Serene By JOHN HASKINS Contributing Critic Mantovtm and hti Concert Or chestra.

More than three thousand people, their appetites whetted by a fairly constant diet of re cordings over the last decade, crowded into Constitution Hall last night to hear a concert by Mantovanl and his orchestra. The music they heard was light and superbly played, and their response was just this side of ecstatic. There are moments in the i concert hall when an orchestra plays, the house-lights are down, and the music is soft, that an auditor gives in to the temptation to doze.

EM. 5-2423 Infection within the system With carefully managed diet , and liquid intake, be has suc ceeded In making astonishing I but temporary recoveries. Ac cording to medical opinion here, he could survive and lead . India for years, though It would require the same kind of steely determination that the Ailing Franklin D. Roosevelt exercised in his final years In power. Almost no one in India is aware of Mr. Nehru’s disability. The recurrent nature of his kidney aliment has been kept a closely-guarded secret, mostly ‘through the efforts of his fiercely devoted daughter and only child, Indira Oandhl, the only one to really share his lonely eminence. t Mrs. Oandhl, 45, whom some have unkindly suggested seeks to succeed her.father herself, is largely respoßsiblle for con vincing most Indians that Mr.! Nehru’s Illness 18 months ago was a passing virus Infection. Mr. Nehru’s motive for ref us- j lng an operation that might force his retirement but pro long his life can only be a mat ter for speculation. He may feel that his leader ship is Indispensable until he is j able to shape a moderately leftist successor group loyal to his policies of social reform, I Fabian socialism and neutral ism. He may fear his departure would disastrously spilt the Congress Party Into conserva tive orthodox Hindu authori tarianism on the right and pro communism on the left. Hopefully, he will not cling to power too long. Jawaharlal Nehru will go down In history j as the pre-eminent figure In J India’s era of transition and as ; the great colonial emancipator. I But much of the greatness of his historical stature may de pend on when he turns thei governing of India over to a i younger man. lar concert he awakes ashamed when the applause goes up, feeling that he has let the side down. None of this need bother the auditor at a Mantovani con- i cert, for it is that kind of mu sic, seemingly designed and arranged to produce precisely that effect. The orchestra numbers 45 players, and 32—or approxi mately a half-acre—of them are _ strings. They play well, and ” are kept under a taut rein by their conductor. The sound! they produce is at times gor -1 geous, but it is never less than 1 fine. What they play Is something , else, again. Show tunes, med -1 ley-schmedleys, arrangements r of this, transformations of that, . in general the kind of reper t toire appropriate for the sum r mer band concert, or a kind of f live Muzak. And they play it seriously, with all the polish in ; the world, like a Cadillac lim , ousine harnessed up to power s a windmill, doing not only a good, but a superb job of it. 3 ___ Free-World Ships Visit Cuban Ports Fifty-two free-world ships called at ports in Communist Cuba in September and Octo ber, the Cuban Revolutionary Unity Movement reported.
