Sen. Lloyd Bentsen argues the 52 billion deficit forecast stems from 40 billion in lost tax revenue due to unemployment and 12 billion in increased spending for unemployment compensation. He calls Ford's forecast too high and urges stimulus through lower interest rates and smaller future deficits. He will have the subcommittee study the budget assumptions.
