Reagan said he does not
believe in the philosophy
of the running mates for
the presidency and the

President Gerald Ford is
fighting inflation rather
than recession, Ronald
Reagan, former governor
of California, said in San
Antonio last week.
Reagan spoke at Laurie
Auditorium at Trinity Uni-
versity. This stop was one
of many stops in his Texas
campaign for the May 1
primary.
"We aren't eliminating
recession. We are elimina-
ting inflation because we
aren't dealing with the
causes of recession," Rea-
gan said.
Reagan said there was
one basic difference be-
tween Ford and himself.
