REPORT ON
BUREAU IS
REJECTED
Reason Not Divulged by Mel
lon. But Wide Discrepancy
Hinted.

Secretary of the Treasury Mel
lon today referred the report Of
the Bureau Of Engraving and
Printing investigation back to the
investigating committee; Louis A.
Hill, director Of the bureau; and
F. J. Collins, custodian of papers
at the bureau. -.
Differences Of unknown magni-
tude in the report were given as
the reason for reconsideration.
All Refuse Comment.
Secretary Mellon received the
report from Undersecretary Gilbert
after 10 o'clock today. and his order
on the report was transmitted At
IL o'clock.
None OF those 10 whom the re.
port was returned would comment
on the details of the differences.
Director Hill stated that he was
directing the Department OF Justice
agents in their independent inYesti-
cation Of the bureau, and would
make the report on that probe di'
rectly TO the President.
Speculation was rife among Treas.
ury officials today after the issu.
ance Of Secretary MELONS order.
General belief Is that the greatest
Importance attaches to the designa-
ton Of Custodian OF the Paper Col,
Inns as one of the collaborators on
the revised report. His connection
indicates, II is said, that some
grave discrepancy has occurred in
the distribution OF the paper upon
which Federal bonds and notes are
printed.
Rumors that the report had been
sent to President Harding for con
sideration during his weekend in
Atlantic City were shown to be fact
less today, when Undersecretnry Gil.
bert, after retaining the report since
early yesterday afternoon, submitted
II to Secretary Mellon.
The belief that serious changes are
made in the report was further borne
out by the fact that every official
into whose hands the document
passed gave it long and secret con-
slderation.
Assistant Deputy Treasurer n.
Theodore Tate. chairman of the in.
vestigatinE committee, gave three
copies of the report, bound in blue,
on extra.size paper, to Undersecre-
tary Of the Treasury Gilbert shortly
after o'clock yesterday for sub.
mission to Secretary OF the Treasury
Mellon. The remaining two copies
OF the report were temporarily re.
tained by Tate.
Secretary Mellon returned from an
appointment outside the Treasury at
o'clock, but the report was not

Foul Play.

Domestic unhappiness has caused
Mrs. Catherine Lockwood, pretty
wife of W. P. Lockwood, Washing

Duesenberg Clan Gets New Driuer
 For Auto Classic

Indianapolis, April 3o-(Spe- cial. .)-With the fight between the Duesenbergs and Frontenacs raging fiercely for every possible advantage before the start of the 500-m mile dash for $100.000 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Tuesday, May 30, comes the announcement that some brand new blood is being injected into the Duesenberg racing veins.
 It Is I. P. Fotterman of Pfttsburg, a home town" type driver, who has been 60 the Uniontown track what Wilcox, Sarles and other Indiana pilots have been to Indianapolis. Practically unknown to the India napolis race goers he has won his spurs on eastern trScks at old Sheeps- head Bay and omre especially Union town, Pa, formely his home port.
 Although R was christened I. Philip, his name had to be shifted bit for racing, following the style of all professionals of the prima donna class But in Fetterman'S case 1t is just plain Red" taken evidently from the sorrel ting of his dome covering, which tops about six feet of slender humanity. He's married and has a family
 Won Harvest Auto Classic
 Practically unnoticed last Labor Day, he won the Harvest auto classic at Uniontown, keeping steady, con sistent pace while Jimmy Murphy tenders with faster cars, spent their time tearing off rubber while driv- ing at terrific speeds, duelding with each other for leadership.
 One scarcely knew he was in the race until the checkered flag was waved to him and the stands went wild to see tne home town ladiie drive in first while other classy pilots looked on with open eyed astonish- ment, wondering how Fetterman got around them.
 It takes just that sort of steady plugging to annex at Indianapolis and that is probably the reason he has been nominated to pilot one of the Duesenbergs being greomed for the long drive.
 So Fetterman will not go without notice when the veterans plan the manner in which they will drive at Indianapolis. Every one of the heardy drivers starts the duel with well defined plan, and they follow 1t as closely as possible, because every one of them has 1t all figured out just how to win-and they sell dom change their minds in the race, except to take advantage of any breaks in their favor.
 Fetterman will come to India napolis bright and early to practice on the track. which is new to him. While here few days ago he 4x- pressed himself as very enthusia stic over his entry, and Is very anxious to drive in the big race.

Western Contenders Are
 Pushing NeuU York Teams
Browns Scramble Into a Tie With Yankees in the Ameri-
 can League-Giants Lead

New York, April 30-New York's champions, the Giants and Yankees, are likely to meet their strongest op- position in the 1922 pennant brush from western eontenders on the basis of early season indications.
 So far eastern clubs have offered only scant resistance to the New Workers in either league. On per formances to date Chicago and St. Louis, in the National, appear to be the Giants strongest rivals, while the Yankees are expected to have a tussle with St. Louis, Cleveland and also Chicago, if the White Sox main- tain their present streak. The first intersectional test is scheduled in an- other week when the western clubs of the American league come east and the eastern outfits of the Ma tional travel west.
 The Giants. backing up effective twirling with terrific batting. main tained their lead during the week and although idle. gained half-game to- day, while the Cubs were being trimmed, 10 to 0, by the Cardinals. Proof that the Giants have the punch is their record of an average of 13 hits and 8 runs a game last week.
 Yankees Challenged
 The Yankees had undisputed hold of the lead until today, when St. Louis seized a chance to scramble into tie, the New Workers dropping their second straight to Boston. while the Browns outslugged Cleve- land. Il to g. The Tanks, depending chiefly on their all-star hurling staff so far, are beginning to feel the absence of Ruth's and Meusers hit-t ting power
 St Louis swept aside it's western rivals with an avalance of home run hitting, plus some excellent pitching Kenneth Williams, who looms up as dangerous contender for Ruth's honors, led the assault with six cir cult clouts, bringing his total to nine, four more than Babe had collected at this time year ago.
 Indians in Rut
 Cleveland failed to make it's hitting productive of runs and lost four out of five starts, while Washington, showing a strong attack, retrieved some of it's lost ground.
 Chicago did little better than break even, Detroit failed to show much improvement, while Boston and Philadelphia gave little resistance to the Yankees and Senators.
 In the National, St. Louis and Chi cago clung to the first division, al- thousn ialllng to gain on the Giants. Brooklyn slumped after outplayineS the Boston Braves early in the week. The Cincinnati Reds displayed in- creasing strength, both at bat and on the mound, and may yet figure, while the Pirates. Philadelphia and Boston were unable to strike a win ming streak.
 A feature of the weeks play was triple play by the Boston Red Sox in Fridays game with the Yankees. Cleveland duplicated the feat today at St, Louis, with Wambsganss, who made history with an unassisted triple play in the 1920 worlds se- ries, on the starting end
