               ALLIEDSIGNAL RESPONDS TO LATEST AMP MANEUVER

     MORRIS TOWNSHIP, New Jersey, September 22, 1998 - AlliedSignal Inc.
[NYSE: ALD] announced today that once again AMP Incorporated [NYSE: AMP]
has violated its shareholders rights by seeking to delay a shareholder
decision on AlliedSignal's amended consent solicitation proposal by a
month. AlliedSignal sees no reason for its initial consent solicitation and
its amended consent solicitation to have separate record dates.
AlliedSignal intends to seek immediate judicial relief so that record date
for both proposals is October 15, 1998.

     AlliedSignal's initial consent solicitation had a record date set for
October 15, 1998. On September 18, 1998, AlliedSignal amended its consent
solicitation in response to AMP's manipulation of its poison pill
provision. Today, AMP again attempted to block its shareholders from
responding to AlliedSignal's cash offer of $44.50 a share by delaying the
record date for the amended consent solicitation by one month to November
15, 1998.

     AlliedSignal is an advanced technology and manufacturing company
serving customers worldwide with aerospace and automotive products,
chemicals, fibers, plastics and advanced materials. The company employs
70,500 people worldwide. AlliedSignal is a component of the Dow Jones
Industrial Average and Standard and Poor's 500 Index, and it is included in
Fortune magazine's lists of the "Most Admired Companies" and "100 Best
Places to Work in America." Additional information on the company is
available on the World Wide Web at http://www.alliedsignal.com/.

                                                            Exhibit (a)(55)

                       A MESSAGE TO AMP SHAREOWNERS
                             FROM ALLIEDSIGNAL

     As you know, we are offering you the opportunity to sell a part of
     your AMP stock for $44.50 cash per share.

          In evaluating our offer, consider the following facts:

          *    On August 3rd your AMP stock closed at $29.

          *    On August 4th we announced our $44.50 cash per share tender
               offer for ALL AMP shares. Your AMP stock closed at $42.

          *    On August 21st AMP's board issued its "Just say no" response
               to our offer and sought to prevent AMP shareowners from
               electing a new board with the power to facilitate a sale of
               AMP at any price. Your AMP stock closed at $36.

          *    On September 14th we announced our amended offer to pay AMP
               shareowners $44.50 cash per share for 40 million AMP
               shares. Your AMP stock closed at $42.

          *    On September 18th AMP's board changed its poison pill to
               reduce the amount of stock you can sell us, preventing AMP
               shareowners from receiving $900 million in cash. That is why
               our offer is now for 20 million AMP shares. Your AMP stock
               closed below $41.

          *    From August 3rd through September 22, the Dow Jones
               Industrial Average declined 9.71% and the Standard & Poor's
               500 declined 7.96%.

  Ask yourself these very important questions: Where would your AMP stock
 be today if not for our offer? Can you afford for AMP to prevent you from
                     receiving $44.50 cash per share?

     You may have been counting on your AMP stock to help fund your
     retirement, your children's education or a new home. During the
     five-year period before we announced our offer, your AMP stock
     declined in value by 11% while the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose
     147% and the S&P rose 148%. Now you have the opportunity to realize
     $44.50 in cash per share.

     AlliedSignal is a strong company with an excellent record of business
     growth and community commitment. We will keep AMP headquartered in
     Harrisburg and we will serve AMP and Pennsylvania well. DON'T TAKE
     CHANCES WITH YOUR FUTURE SECURITY.

  Tender your AMP shares today so that you will receive $44.50 per share
            for your proportional share of all shares tendered.
           We will then offer to buy all your remaining shares.

     Tender your shares to AlliedSignal by October 2nd if you haven't
     already done so. If you've tendered by guaranteed delivery, you must
     present your share certificates in order to receive payment. If you've
     already tendered your share certificates, no further action by you is
     required in order to receive payment.

     Our intended subsequent offer for all of the then outstanding AMP
     stock could be at a price lower or higher than $44.50 a share in cash
     and could be subject to different conditions from the present offer.

     If you need assistance or information, please call our information
     agent: MORROW & CO., INC.
