Heavy buying of the steel shares which advanced 1to 3 points on re- ports of improved tride conditions, overshadowed all other develop- ments in today's abbreviated session of the stock market. The sensation- al advance in General Rallway sig- nal, which exteneded its early gain to 9 points, and the strength of Westinghouse Air Brake, which moved up over 5 points, was gener- ally attributed f{o expectations of large earnings fhrough the sale of automatic train control devices that recently have heen ordered on sev- eral rallroads.
