Kennedy himself escaped questioning by pleading guilty to a charge of leaving the scene of an accident. Still, District Attorney Edmund Dinis was apparently so annoyed by criticism of his office's handling of the case that last week he belatedly sought an inquiry, taking the unusual step of asking the state superior court to begin a formal inquest. Normally the lower district court conducts inquests...
...with the close but bitterly divisive 1968 campaign behind him, Humphrey probably could not run for the presidency again without reducing the party to a shambles, splitting off the younger, activist wings that barely tolerated him last year. ∙EDMUND MUSKIE. In the first six months of this year, Muskie crisscrossed the nation on lecture tours that built his popularity among both regular and irregular Democrats.

Last week the Senate subcommittee on air and water pollution approved a bill sponsored by Maine Democrat Edmund Muskie that would set up an in dependent "Office of Environmental Quality." The Senate has also just unanimously passed a remarkable bill in troduced by Washington Democrat Henry ("Scoop") Jackson, chairman of the Interior Committee. A shrewd politician, Jackson finessed his bill through on the consent calendar, which bypasses floor debate. His "National Environmental Policy Act of 1969" would do no less than...
