WASHINGTON (AP) - Sen.
Edmund S. Muskie, D-Maine,
says he has started to sound
Democratic leaders about possi-
ble support for the presidency in
1972.
So far, the inquiries have been
made “in a tentative, limited
way," Muskie said. But that ef-
fort “obviously has to be ex-
panded and escalted," he add-
ed.

Court Refuses
To Hear Suit
WASHINGTON (AP) - A di-
vided Supreme Court refused to-
day to hear a suit by Massachu-
setts questioning the legality of
U.S. military action in Vietnam.
Six justices voted against the
state and three justices dissent-
ed Only Justice William O.
Douglas, one of the dissenters,
set forth his views.
Massachusetts had argued
that without a declaration of
war the President has no au-
thority to send American troops
into combat in Southeast Asia.
The Nixon administration
counseled the court against
granting the state a hearing.
Justice Department officials
said a judicial inquiry into the
legality of the war would
hamstring the President, insult
Congress and embarrass the na-
tion.
Voting against a hearing were
Chief Justice Warren E. Burger
and Justice Harry A. Blackmun,
both of whom were put on the
court by President Nixon and
Justices Hugo L. Black, William
J. Brennan Jr., Byron R. White
and Thurgood Marshall, holdov-
ers from past administrations.
