...other economists expect only a kind of pause. Otto Eckstein, president of Data Resources Inc., a forecasting firm, offers a precise computerized prediction: the growth of real G.N.P. will slow from 3.9% in the current quarter to 3.2% in late 1978, 1.9% in the first quarter of 1979 and 1.1% from April through June next year.

Eckstein foresees some danger, but a rather pleasant one. Once the slowdown is over, he thinks, the economy will expand so rapidly through 1980 that by early 1981 "a safely re-elected Carter Administration"?or its successor?will be faced with the problem of slowing it down again...
