McNamara inapublic. rBut McNamara has declined the war in Viet Nam this year. He said the renewed bombing of North Vietnamese supply lines, now in its fifth day, has already caused the Viet Cong to turn to night-time delivery of supplies and that this is hindering them greatly.

Failure could bring on general elections. For the second time since Pre- mier Aldo Moro resigned Jan. 21, Saragat started a round of con- sultations with parliamentary leaders. He acted after Moro re- ported an impasse. Collapse Moro's negotiation in an at- tempt to form a cabinet with leaders of the four parties of his center-left coalition have col- lapsed. This appeared to leave Saragat with three choices-to ask Moro to resume his efforts, to. send Moro and his caretaker govern- ment back to Parliament to seek a vote of confidence or to dissolve Parliament and call elections. There was yet a fourth choice -call on someone other than Moro to try to form a government -but this seemed unlikely. The Christian. Democrats, Socialists, Democratic Socialists and Repub- licans in Moro's coalition support a continuation of a center-left government, but only with Moro at its head. These parties gave their support with strings at- tached, however, and Moro has tripped over them. Rightist Support The right wing in Moro's own. A Christian Democrat party agreed to support him again providing its faction leader, former Premier Mario Scelba, got a cabinet seat.
