New York, October 17.

The Indian Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, tonight warned Russia and the United States that they are heading straight for war by splitting the world into two hostile camps. Speaking at a special convocation in his honour at Columbia University, Mr. Nehru said the the talk of war and preparations for war are producing a sense of terrible fear and that fear darkens men's minds and leads them "into wrong courses.

Premier Nehru reiterated his intention to keep

India from taking sides in the "cold wor between the Soviet Union and the Anglo- Americans but warned that India will fight it she is threatened from any quarter.

He said: "When man's liberty or peace is in danger, we cannot and shall not be neutral. Neutra lity then will be a betrayal of what we have fought for and stand for."

The Indian leader laid down five basic points of the Indian foreign policy which places eme phasis on elimination racial discrimination, colonialism
