Senate energy conference appointment scuttled
Washington Sen. Henry M. Jackson backs off from filling a vacant seat on the Senate energy conference amid threats from deregulation forces to filibuster. Jackson hoped to name Sen. Adlai Stevenson to replace the late Sen. Lee Metcalf, a move seen as unorthodox and likely to provoke extended debate. Several senators say the spot will stay unfilled, giving deregulation allies a narrow voting edge in the conference over Carter energy legislation.
