WASHINGTONPresident Bush pledged Tuesday to sub­ mit detailed revisions to Ronald R eagan’s budget next month and suggested highlevel negotiations between the White House and Congress to produce an early agreem ent. The White House acknowl­ edged that Bush had not kept his prom ise to send his team of budget negotiators to Congress on the first day of his presidency. Likewise, it ap­ peared unlikely Bush would fol­ low through on his prom ise to personally lead the budget talks.

Jim Wright, D-Texas, said after two hours of talks with Bush. “ It was all sweetness and light,” said the House Republi­ can whip, Rep. R ichard Cheney of Wyoming, acknowledging that differences on the budget and other problem s are inevi­ table eventually. “The honeymoon’s still ontwo more days, three more daysenjoy it while it lasts.”

Japanese loanword accentuation: epenthesis and foot form interacting through edge-interior alignment
