President Reagan answers questions at a White House press conference. The March 5, 1984, article in U.S. News, which ran this photo, examines U.S. deficit problems and the effects they may have on the presidency. "The White House, sources say, views a sagging recovery as a more serious threat to the President's re-election than any candidate the Democrats put up. That's why Reagan and his advisers are, in effect, telling Paul Volcker, chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, that they want the Fed to supply enough money to keep the recovery on track and not to worry so much about a resurgence of inflation."
