'A Breathing Spell' David S. BrocLer  
The s^ock market went up in anticipation råÈf Jerry Ford and then went down in reaction to his swearing-in, but that only confirmed what everyone has knownÛÓthat the stock market is loco crazy.</br></br>Here in Washington and. one gathers. elsewhere around the country, sane i'oiks are enjoying the breathing spell that this unscheduled change in governments has given us. While their backers were frantically trying to hustle the vice presidency for them. Nelson Rockefeller was relaxing on the Maine coast and Dan Evans was camping up in Montana.</br></br>The break in the two years of tension was palpable. Even nature relaxed enough, to allow the clouds to open up on the parched Midwest.</br></br>Congress is knocking off work this week until after Labor Day, and if Mr. Ford is smart, he will follow that cue and relax his own pace a bit. Things will wa't.</br></br>If memory serves, one of the things Congress did in its wonderful new budget bill is decree that the fiscal year will start in October. A splendid notion, And the logical corollary is that the ogvernmental year should also begin when summer vacation ends.
