WASHINGTON--President Carter yesterday vowed to continue to fight against inflation even if it proves politically disastrous.
Speaking in a nationally broadcast press-conference, Carter also said that he was "somewhat discouraged" by the slowdown in Mid-East peace negotiations, but added that he thought the peace process was experiencing only "temporary setbacks."
