Volcker urges Congress to curb deficits to protect gains
Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker told the Senate Budget Committee that Congress must make substantial deficit reductions or risk undermining the economic gains and future prospects. He warned the recovery relies on volatile foreign investment, and at least 50 billion dollars in savings are needed to reassure markets. He criticized the Reagan plan’s 50 billion dollar deficit cut and noted foreign investment has harmed farmers, steel, and export-focused industries while driving the dollar to record highs. Volcker foresaw potential recession before 1990, though the administration expects no downturn through the decade, and mentioned a modified flat tax under consideration to cut rates by removing exemptions.

Stephan Opposes AG Pay Hike in Kansas
Attorney General Robert T. Stephan released a letter to Kansas House and Senate leaders opposing a proposed salary rise from 44000 to 57500. He argued the increase is unnecessary and would not deter public service, noting any inequity should be rectified. The bill would raise multiple statewide official salaries and legislative leaders' pay in addition to regular pay.
