R. Haldeman and Frederic V. Malek discuss the potential appointment of Peter G. Nash as counsel for the National Labor Relations Board. Malek reports that while Nash may not receive the same enthusiastic reception as Richard T. Burress, he is expected to secure confirmation without significant opposition from labor or business interests. Based on positive internal reviews from James D. Hodgson, Lawrence H. Silberman, and Maurice H. Stans, the pair concludes that the appointment remains viable.","topics":["Peter G.
