Tauke urges deficit cut as private sector key to recovery
The 2nd District congressman Tom Tauke told about 400 at Jefferson High School that lawmakers must reduce the national deficit and rely on the private sector for recovery. He warned of up to 190 billion dollars in deficits, urged cuts to entitlements and defense, and noted Reagan's programs are helping but slower than promised.

Business groups seek deeper defense cuts for 1984
NAM NFIB and ABC urge President Reagan to cut military spending by 18 to 23 billion for fiscal year 1984, far beyond his proposed 8 billion reduction. They call for a one year pay freeze and broader non defense cuts to reduce about 30 billion, arguing high growth in defense after inflation harms recovery. Alexander Trowbridge cautions defense growth is excessive and suggests around 5 percent.
