Market slides as inflation jitters weigh on stocks

The broader NYSE composite slipped to 38.05, near its May 1970 low of 37.69.

Energy tax plan eyed to ease shortages this winter
The Times cites unnamed administration sources saying Ford plans an increased gasoline tax of 10 cents, aiming to curb consumption by as much as 5 percent, push oil prices down and strengthen the dollar. It would raise about $8 billion in revenue to cut income taxes for households under $20,000 or to help balance the budget, with approval likely only before Congress adjourns mid October.
