 The report Of the special committee has been virtually completed, high off, ficials said, and will probably go this week to Secretary Mellon, who is eX- pected to make known the results of the check on the bureaus stock.
 Officiols emphasized today that any shortages in the bureau accounts, which might be revealed by the inven tory, would be small and more or less to be expected in the operation of a plant of the size of the bureau. but asserted their belief there had been no serious loss to the government.
 Investigation of the bureau. carried on by department of justice agents loaned Director Hill by Attorney Gen. eral Daugherty, probably will not be completed before July 1. it was said. Their report will be submitted to Pres ident Harding.

 WELCOMED HOWE
Is Hailed as Jolly Good Fellow by 400 Guests
 at Union Dinner

LONDON, June 12. (By the Associa, ted Press) s)-Viscountess Astor was hailed as jolly good fellow" by 400 guests at a dinner given today by the English Speaking Union to welcome home the first woman to take her seat as a member of the house of commons after her American tour.
 Mrs. Winteringham, who shares the honors of feminine representation in parliament with the Virginian, united with Lord Lee of Fareham in saying nice things about the guest of honor's work in parliament, and the unofficial mission she performed recently in America.
 The English Speaking Union is the only Anglo-American fellowship soci- ety which admits women to member ship.
 Viscountess Astor was attired in a lemon colOred gown with green girdle. with two ropes of pearls around her neck. In characteristic fashion, she ser monized, admonished, and joked for an hour. In her peroration, she alluded to the Washington conference, saying:
 America had chance to build the greatest navy in the world; she gave it uD W4bH as iAluCIl SidSC dS AAC. SA FabCSb navy in the world gave up it's long reign of the seas"
 When she resumed h f seat, the au- dience to a man-and woman stood and sang spiritedly For she's a jolly good fellow"
 Lady Nancy" gave an account of her American travels, prefaced by a recital of the unifying influence of Anglo-Saxon idealism. She rapped on the table as she affirmed: I am not here to speak of England; did that for one month in America. am here to speak of America and I can do so with as much pride and confidence as to her greatness as I spoke of Eng lands greatness in America"

Wards Race Track
 Activities Will Be
 PrObed at Hearing

WHITE PLAINS. N. Y., June 12- Indications tonight were that when the Westchester county grand jury to- morrow resumes it's investigation of the Ward-Peters shooting mystery, the limelight will be focused on Wal ter s. Wards interest in the race track. to determine whether his ad- ventures there had any connection with the mysterious blackmail threat which he says led to his meeting with Clarence Peters.
 At almost every turn since Peters was slain on May 15. the track has b0bbed up. Ward and Peters were both reported to have been seen at the races together; James J. Cunning ham, whose story of the shooting diff fers from that of Ward that he fired in self defense, was a race track de- tective, and now the authorities are in vestigating q letter from Ward found yesterday on Elwood Heffler, an in- surance adjuster and alleged race track habitue, held in New Rochelle on a charge of forgery.
 It is probable that Ralph D. Ward, a brother, will be questioned concern ing Wards race track activities.

APPROVE CUTS IN PROP OSED
 TARIFF RATES
Many of Original Rates Had Been Opposed by Democrats;
 Some Increases Accepted

WASHINGTON, June 12-Continu- ing it's downward revision of rates in the tariff bill, the senate finance com mittee majority made sharp cuts to- day in proposed rates on surgical, den tai, scientific and laboratory instru- ments; molyodenum ore, and molyb- denum alloys, and other commodities. All of the reductions, some of which were offered after the original reCom- mendations had come under fire from the Democratic side, were approved by the senate
 Some increases in rates also were proposed and accepted. They covered ferro-mapSanese and were recom- mended, members of the committee said, as compensatory duty to the man ufacturers by reason Of the recent ac- tion of the senate in removing man. ganese ore from the free list against the committees recommendation. The duties on ferro-mahganese were fixed at 7-S cents a pound on that having more than one per cent of carbon, and 1 7-S cents and 15 per cent ad Halorem on that containing less than one per cent of carbon.
 On scientific and laboratory instru- ments, the committee proposed and the senate accepted a reduction from 55 per cent ad valorem to 35 per cent A Democratic amendment to make the rate 9 per cent, as at present, was rejected. On surgical and dental in struments, the, committee originally recommended duties equivalent. Chair man McCumber said. to so per cent. It reduced them 45 per cent on surgi- cal and 8 per cent on dental. and it's action was approved after the senate had defeated motions from the minor ity side to cut those rates.
 The rate on molybdenum ore was cut from 75 cents to 8 cents a pound. and that on the alloy from $1 pound and 15 per cent ad valorem to 50 cents pound and 15 per cent
 Duties on ferro-silicon, ranging from ? cents to 8 cents pound. were ap- proved over vigorous protests from the Democrats, but the duty on many metal alloys was cut 30 per cent ad valorem to g per cent. At the re- quest of the committee. action on the duty on tungsten alloys was deferred until further investigation of prices can be made.
 A rate Of S2 pound on cerium met al was approved by a vote of S4 to 25.
