V New York, Sept 4.--(UPl-- Weakness in communication stocks prevented a technical rebound in the stock market to-day following the heavy selling of the two pre- ceding sessions. As a result, the main body of stocks held close to previous lev- els after suffering moderate set- backs in the early trading on an accumulation of overnight selling orders. The momentum of the decline was spent during the first hour and hopful support came into many of the leaders like Steel common, American Can and Gen. eral Motors.
 These shares firmed up frac- tionally in the early afternoon af- ter recovering early losses. Trad CTS were unwilling to follow these advances with buying orders, how ever, in the face of weakness in a few individual issues and shorts had little difficulty In covering their contracts for over the im- pending three-day Labor day holi- day.
 Selling in gilt-edge issues like Western Union and American Tele- phone was persistent throughout the session, both issues selling down to their July levels on losses of 4 1-2 and 1-S points. re- spectively. Weakness in both is- sues was accompanied by fears of early adverse dividend action. Similar reasons were responsible for selling in International Tele- phone. In the bond market, Pos tai Telegraph and Cable 5S of 1853 lost 1-2 points. The com pany Is an international affiliate.
 Directors of the Western Union meet for dividend action Tuesday and a cut in the current $S rate IS predicted, although the company earned its dividend requirements in the first half. Adverse action on this score might influence sub seuuent dividend meetings by other communication companies. Inter- national Telephone directors meet Thursday for action in its $2 an- nual common dividend.
 Stocks in other sections of the list gave a much better perform ance and the improved sentiment was indicated by the manner Tn which traders ignored rumors or a destructive character.
 The sharp decrease in activity. however, which fell to nearly half of yesterdays two-million share clip, however, was disappointing to bull leaders, who had hoped for sharp recovery in the pre-holiday session in the hopes of attracting new buying next week.
 EARLY TRADING
 New York, Sept 4.-tUP)-sell- ing was less aggressive at the ope ming of stock trading to-day fol- lowing the sweeping decline of the previous session. While further de- clines occurred in all leaders, losses were small and offerings were well absorbed.
 A few shares broke to further new lows for the year or longer but this adverse development was some what offset by the important support afforded steel common, which yesterday broke to its low, est price since 1922 at SEA. steel opened N point lower at S3, sold down to SEA and then recovered
