 New York, oct 2s--(UP)-A de- cline of 8,4O5 cars in the weekly loading report brought selling into railroad shareg to-day and the en- tire stock market eased with them in continuation of the recent dull turnover.
 The car loading decline broke a long series of advances. Breakup of the figure showed rise of 1.297 cars in merchandise in, less than car load lots which was considered encouraging. Miscellaneous freight loadings dropped sharply as did coal loadings, the latter a seasonal dip, Grain 1oadings were little changed from the preceding week.
 Before the car loadings report was issued the market was firm. It had on the constructive side such aids as a firm and fairly active bond market; good news from the banking world as regards closures; a report the 10 per cent wage re- duction would be continued by the railroad workers when the present agreement expires; and a steady grain market. The latter turned down later in the day and cotton also fave ground. Silver, which rose sharply yesterday, .quieted down with prices slipping off.
 Near the close, it was learned steel operations in the Youngstown area would hold at 10 per cent next week, unchanged from this week. That helped Steel Common rally from its early low of 35A of 1h net. The issue touched S7 at the opening.

Highway Commissioners John A. Macdonald today announced plans for twelve new, road improvement projects which include slightly more than twenty-eight miles of highway work and the construction of four new bridges and two cul- verts. Among the dozen jobs, there are one federal aid emergency pro- ject, one state aid reconstruction job, three state aid jobs and seven town aid projects.
 The federal aid emergency pro- ject calls for close to three miles of bituminous macadam pavement on Route No. I'll, the East Hamp- ton-Moodus road, in the town of East Hampton. The state aid re- construction work will call for building three and a half miles of reinforced concrete pavement on the north section of the Long Ridge road, Route No. 137, in the town of Stamford.
 Under the seven town aid con- tracts, nineteen different sections of road will be improved and con- crete slab bridges will be built at two places in Bethany and on roads in Colebrook and Madison.

Novel Excuse
 Saves AutOist
Claims Mask Hid View of
 Traffic Light

Edwin Delinks, 20, of 33 Wilson street gave novel reason in po- lice court this morning for his failure to observe red traf1ic light on West Main street early last evening.
 "I was going to O. masquerade party and I had my costume ana mask on and although l kept my eye open for lights I didn't see the red light in time. Iguess my mask was the cause, he explained. :.
 Sentence suspended remarked the court, disposing of the case. :,
 Daniel Smith, IS, colored, 235 Abbott avenue was given 10 days in Jail today for operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of liquor. Someone gave the young man a glass of wine after he had finished washing a car. The wine apparently affected his walk, talk and general conduct. He narrowly missed running down two ~pedes-- trians on South Main street and parked his car on a cross walk withing two yards of Traffic Of- ficer Alex Fosbender.
