Market slips amid inflation fears and McGovern impact
The Dow Jones average fell about 5.6 points to 35.73 by noon as trading slowed on the New York Stock Exchange. Analysts cited economic concerns raised by Senator George McGovern and inflation and unemployment signals, with declines led by aircraft, chemicals, and tobaccos while mail order retailers rose. Levitz Furniture dropped after announcing its president's resignation and after an SEC probe into possible securities law violations.
