Reagan predicts recovery as he defends economic plan
President Reagan told a national news conference he foresees an economic upturn by spring or early summer and vows to stay the course on tax and budget cuts. He said he will veto budgetbusting bills, defer specifics on tax increases and cuts until January, and warned against shortterm political expediency while acknowledging hard times. Senate Democrats accused the administration of misleading the public about the economy.
