Budget disputeивes limited market reaction
Louis Rukeyser notes Congress and press overreact to budget votes. Reagan allies hailed a largely unread measure while liberal Democrats warned of rollback. Markets yawns, suggesting the package may only slow spending growth rather than cut it. The hoped budget balance remains elusive amid a "new coalition" of Republicans and conservative Democrats.

Reagan budget plan labeled as minor reform attempt
The piece criticizes Reagan's proposed budget cuts as insufficient and politically motivated. It argues the plan would still leave deficits well above $50 billion annually, omitting major domestic programs, while defending defense increases and tax cuts. It notes shifts in congressional sentiment and historic budget actions, framing the current effort as a modest achievement rather than a breakthrough.

S and L chairman Tom B Scott touts a tax free All-Savers saving certificate as a tool to cut housing costs and stimulate mortgage lending. He argues the industry is bound to long term fixed rates by Congress and would benefit from the proposal, potentially funding over 300000 new housing starts and boosting jobs in housing related sectors.
