Showdown nears On appointment
SACRAMENTO UPI The Senate Rules Committee planned a showdown vote on Gov Reagan's nomination of W Craig Biddle to the Workmen's Compensation Appeals Board. Moscone predicted the panel would reject Biddle and likely the other two Reagan nominees, arguing against deathbed appointments with a new administration looming. The board handles worker compensation appeals, and organized labor opposes the pro business trend. Brown said he would defer judgment and not press a position with senators. If approved, the full Senate would convene Friday to confirm.
