Market Leaders Back Down In Slow Session
New York August 22 AP stock market leaders backed down in one of the slowest sessions in memory. Losses extended into the forenoon as the ticker tape barely moved with faint support and fewer losses. Transfers ran about 200 000 shares as motors, once strong performers, faltered before recovering. Steel shares declined despite the Iron and Steel Institute's estimate of mill operations at 42.8 percent of capacity, up 24 points the best since last November. Overall, no major news altered the cautious optimism with some clouded European sentiment.
