WASHINGTON (AP) -- Construction spending fell again in April as home building continued a more than two-year-long slide. The weakness was offset somewhat by an increase in non-residential activity which climbed to a record level.

The Commerce Department reported that construction activity fell by 0.4% in April after having been down 0.6% in March. Construction has not increased since last September as the building industry continues to be battered by the worst slump in housing in decades.
