At a CMRE conference on inflation at Georgetown, Senator William Proxmire aligned with hard money advocates, arguing housing money should be drawn from a balanced federal budget rather than special subsidies. He urged tightening credit to curb inflation and proposed funding housing from budget balance rather than new funds.
In Proxmire’s view government borrowing has dried the mortgage market. Cutting 8 to 10 billion in federal spending could ease money pressure, enabling mortgage lending and home building. He shifts from liberal spending critique to opposing bloated government while warning against harming vital programs. President Ford may yet back him as a centrist leader.
President Ford and Arthur Burns have tightened policy, risking a deeper recession as capital goods orders fall and unemployment climbs to about 7 percent. Analysts expect Congress to push large spending and extended unemployment benefits in January, widening the deficit despite inflation easing briefly.

He warns price controls may distort production, while true relief requires higher output in key industries and farms. Some economists foresee inflation staying elevated through 1975 and beyond.
