WASHINGTON (AF) - President
neagan, insisting ne is forging a
lasting economic recovery, cautioned
voters not to ^fce tempted by those
advocating a return to "big spending
and big taxing."
In a speech broadcast over
Democrats' protests 20 days before
the election, Reagan said the country's
problems were years in the
making and were the fault of big
spenders and people playing politics
with the economy.
Democrats, however, pointed out
that unemployment has soared to its
highest level in four decades during
Reagan's presidency and said his
recovery program must be changed.
441 was disappointed that the
president failed to propose a single
new measure to create jobs and put
America back to work," said House
S^ckkeb I nomas O'Neill, D-Mass.
"If he thinks we should stay the
course, he should ask those millions of
American families who have already
reached the end of the line," O'Neill
said in a statement. 4 If he thinks
Reaganomics is working, he should
ask the fellow who isn't."

Thousands of veiled brides in white

Wednesday night, Reagan said,
"Now, I do not pretend for a moment
that in 21 months we have been able to
undo all the damage to our economy
that has built ud over more than 20
years."
He said the current recession "is
part of a long series ? a series that
hasn't stopped because in the past
when the crunch came, too many in
government resorted to quick fixes
instead of getting to the root cause."
Sen. Donald Riegle of Michigan,
giving the Democrats' formal
response to Reagan, said the economy
4 'is on a downhill slide.
"More people are out of work now
than at anytime since the Great
Depression." said Rieele. "And it's

"What kind of course is it that
creates more business failures than at
any time since the Depression?"

Reagan's speech was nonpartisan but
it was packed with self-praise for the
administration's program and scorn
for previous remedies for inflation
and unemployment.
