By DOUG MARSHALL LONDON (CP)--Rumors of a snap spring election and a change in Conservative leader- ship are adding an edge of un- certainty and excitement to Train Crash Kills 41 - VILLAHERMOSA, Mexico (AP)--A speeding freight train rammed into the back of a halted passenger train in dense fog near here Sunday, killing 41 persons and injuring 75. Three of the injured were The accident occurred at the mountain village of Tacotalpa, 45 miles south of this capital of Tabasco state in southeastern Mexico.

NAPLES, Italy (AP) -- A southbound train rammed into the rear of a stopped eight- coach passenger train in a pre- |dawn storm Sunday just out- side the station at ancient | Pompeii. Three passengers were killed jand nearly 100 were injured. All three dead and most of the injured were soldiers and Ital- ian laborers travelling south to spend Christmas at their homes in Calabria and Sicily. Christmas celebrations in polit- ical circles here, The basis for the speculation is anxiety about Britain's finan- cial position. Despite the recent international rescue operation, a crisis of confidence in the sta- bility of the pound sterling has demoralized London's financial district. As an alternative to devalua- tion, Prime Minister Wilson may be forced to call a spring election in hopes of securing an increased majority. If the Labor Party can return to power with a stronger man- date, some government strate- will be forced to settle down and live with it as best it can. The gloom in financial circles has deepened because the pres- sure on the pound is no longer coming from abroad. Financial observers say it is British busi- nessmen who are selling pounds and buying dollars for delivery in the future. The worst blow to business gists think, then big business! lg sian pe sr Spring Election Chance Makes It Bloomin' Luverly morale came Thursday when the government broker was forced to step in and buy up British government securities in an effort to prevent blue-chip prices sagging. Meanwhile there are strong signs that the Conservatives are having their own local crisis: of confidence, both over their leader, Sir Alec Douglas-Home, and their internal party organi- zation. ' Some of the young men in the Tory establishment are believed to want Douglas-Home to quit and a new man to find his feet before Wilson announces an election. Criticism of Douglas-Home's leadership. is based on the in- ability of the Opposition front bench to. provide initiative and drive and its failure to match government speakers in the heat of debate. Even Conservatives who de- cline to support demands for a} new leader say the party at} least needs a new look. ...with an HEC Shopper's Loan Cover everyone on your list with an HFC Shopper's Loan.
