Treasury softens Kennedy stance on 4 percent unemployment
The Treasury seeks to soften the impact of Secretary Kennedy's remark that 4 percent unemployment is an acceptable cost of fighting inflation. It reiterated that even small unemployment is an unhappy condition and will be corrected while continuing anti inflation steps. Kennedy cited a rise from 3.5 to 4 percent in September and warned against inflation without an unacceptable unemployment level.
