Budget Deficits

@. Mr.. President, in your
Yale speech you spoke of def
cts and not going necessarily
inflationary or harmful. As
YOU know, the attitude about
deficits among the American
people is largely an unfavor-
able one. I wonder in light of
that if you can elaborate on
why you think that deficits
may not be bad or harmful.
A. 1t depends. As I tried to
say at Yale. the key word is
necessarily. I think there has
been a feeling that deficits
bring initiation with them, and

Business Support

Q. Mr.. President, sir, a lot of
people seem to feel that the
idea Of q Democratic admin
istration trying to win the
confidence Of business is some
thing like the Republicans try
ing to win the confidence Of
labor unions. Do you feel, sir
you are making Roadway in
your efforts? Have you seen
anything to indicate that busi-
ness Is coming around to your
point Of view on the economy,
and that the confidence you
asked for is being restored In
the market place?
A. Well, I said what is neces-
sary Is not really whether some
businessmen may be Repub-
hcans-most businessmen are
Republicans, have been trad
itionally, have voted Republic
can In every presidential cleo
ton. But that Is not the i'm
portant point, whether there
Is political agreement.
The important point is that
they recognize and the Gov
eminent recognizes, and every
group recognizes the necessity,
as I said. of attempting to
work out economic policy
which will maintain our econ
omy at an adequate rate Of
growth. That is the great prob
lem for us.
They feel. as I said, that
they would be happier if there
were a Republican in the White
House. but there was a Repub-
lican In the White House in
1858 and we had a recession,
and there was in 1860. So I
think that what we have to
realize is that I could be away
from the scene-which might
make them happy-and that
they might have a Republican
in the White House, but the
economic problems would still
be there.
So what I hope is that we
can address ourselves to those
and not to a political matter
because. after all. the presiden-
tial race isn't until 1864 and at
that time 1t would seem to me
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1962-06-15

to be the appropriate time to
argue politics.
Right now we should be con-
corning ourselves with the real
problems Of our country, which
are Of interest to them, which
are to labor, which are to all
the people.

Tax Write-OHs

@. Mr.. President. while most
of business certainly doesn't
oppose your income tax reduc-
ton plan, many businessmen
have said if you really want to
give business and the economy
a. shot in the arm. that you
should give them a better break
on depreciation, tax write-offs,
and so forth. I know that a
new schedule is coming out
think within the month-but
in addition to that, do you con-
template anything in this area
that will help?
A. We are going to, as I said

Partial TRANSCRIPT
Kennedy Discusses Economic Issues

FOLLOWING is the teri of
President KeHnedy's netDs
conference remarks yesterday
dealing NTH economics and
businessmen:
@. Mr.. President, following
up your recent statements on
the economy. particularly your
speech at Yale the other day
and the Solicitor Generals yes
terday. is it the Governments
intention to play an active role
in major labor and industry
wage and price discussions and,
II so, how would this role be
played?
A. No. I think-I have not
read the speech of the Solicit
tor. My speech at Yale, I think,
was quite clear. 1t dealt mainly
-cheifly-with another sub
ject. which was that we should
attempt to engage in a dia-
logue on the very intricate
questions which are involved
in the management of a very
complicated economy such as
ours, in order to maintain full
employment, and keep our
economy moving.
AS far aS-we have at
tempted to indicate, of course,
through the Council Of Eco
nomic Advisers and by other
means, our concern that we
follow policies, particularly in
those basic industries which af-
feet our competitive position
overseas-that we follow poll
cies that permit us to continue
to compete, and continue to
keep our economy moving. But
these-thiS is a free economy.
In the final analysis, we have
to attempt to work out the So

adequate rate of growth. That
is the great problem for US"
They feel that they
would be happier if there were
a Republican in the White
House, but there was a Re-
publican in the White House
in 1858 and we had a recession
and there was in 1860. So I
think that what we have to
realize is that I could be away
from the scene, which might
make them happy and that
they might have a Republican
in the White House, but the
economic problems would still
be there"
The President pointed out
that the presidential race will
not be until 1864 and suggested
that at that time at would
seem to me to be the appropri-
ate time to argue politics"
The President undertook to
soothe one source Of business
fears by minimizing the role
the Government intends to play
in major labor-induStry wage
and price discussions.
He said his administration
has sought to indicate its con-
Germ that the country will
follow policies. particularly in
basic industries, which will
permit the country to continue
to compete and keep the econ
omy moving.
But this is a free economy, Z"
the President said. I'm the
final analysis, we have to at
tempt to work out the solutions
on voluntary basis"
Amplifies Yale Remark
In response to another ques-
ton, the President elaborated
on a statement In his Yale
speech that deficits in the pres
ent economic situation are not
necessarily inflationary or
harmful.
The President replied that
the key word in his.remarks is
necessarily" He pointed out
that in the first three years
after World War II, when there
were rather large budget sur
pluses there was still a sharp
initiation. In 1858 and in 1862
when there were deficits, the
President said. there were sta
BILE price levels.
The President appealed, in
effect, for a new view Of the
whole problem of budgets and
deficits and said that, instead
of the traditional view regard
ing deficits, he intends to fol-
low "a budget policy which is
related to the economy and not
related to what I call rather
formal traditional positions
which may not be applicable
to the present time"

Icy, what should be our fiscal
policy. and the automatic re-
Spouse that q deficit neces-
sarily produces initiation is not
necessarily true.

President Kennedy has made
a new bid for the support of
business leaders in working out
the country's economic prob
lens.
It was voiced at his news
conference yesterday when the
President said he did not accept
the view being expressed in
some quarters that big business
is using the stock market
slump to force him to come to
terms.
Mr.. Kennedy, mingling humor
with seriousness, suggested that
business leaders should concern
themselves with the admins
tration's efforts to maintain the
economy at an adequate rate
of growth and not with par
tisan politics.
The economic problems
would still be here If a Repub-
lican occupied the White
House, the President said.
Mr.. Kennedy appeared to be
trying to take the strained re-
lationS between his admins
tration and business out of the
field of partisanship in re-
spending to two questions at
his 36th press conference,
which was attended by 1874 re-
porters.
Answers With Jest
He brought laughter with
his opening response to the
question about whether big
business was using the market
slump to bring the admins
tration to terms. A reporter
said that zone reputable col
umnist, after talking to bust
nessmen, obviously, reported
this week their attitude is
Now we have, you where we
want you"
II can't believe I am where
business people want me-" the
President said. Then he men,
toned that he had read the
column in the st. Louis Post
Dispatch reminder that The
White House ordered that
newspaper after cancelling 81
subscriptions to the Republic
can-oriented New York Her.
aid Tribune.
Then the President expressed
his belief that businessmen did
not hold this attitude.
II cannot believe that any,
body thinks that in order to
gain some political benefit
it would be a source of plea
sure to them to see the stock
market go down or see the
economy have difficulties" the
President added.
IT don't believe anyone who
looks at our problems at home
and abroad could possibly take
that partisan attitude. So 1.
don't accept that view"
Policy Debate Urged
What is needed, the Presi-
dent emphasized, is not "the
personal dialogue" as much as
"a dialogue on the problems
of what tax policies and what
budget policies and fiscal pol
icies we should pursue.
The President twice pointed
to the recession of 1858 and
1860 during the Eisenhower
administration to emphasize
the point that this was not a
maICer Ior partisan polltlcS.
Mr.. Kennedy was asked If he
considered that he was making
Roadway in his efforts to win
the confidence Of business. A
reporter suggested that this
was something like the Re-
publicans trying to win the
confidence Of labor unions.
The President replied that,
while most businessmen are
Republicans and traditionally
have voted Republican in pres
idential elections, it was not
important whether there is
political agreement.

eminent recognizes and every
