Austria Bures
$6.6-MiIIion Tax
Rebate Frauds

VIENNA, Austria. Nov. 81
(AP).-Tax investigators have
exposed a fraud which drained
the Austrian treasury of about
$l.6 million. A finance min
istry spokesman said today it
was engineered by a group of
Vienna and Salzburg business
men who in the course of three
years pocketed tax rebates by
staging bogus exports.
Austria grants exporters up
to 10 per cent in turnover tax
rebates as premiums to pro-
mote exports. The spokesman
said the group tricked revenue
authorities by declaring low
quality articles, such as cheap
glass and sham jewelry, as
high-quality exports.
To get export certificates re-
quired for rebate applications,
they sent the jewelry abroad on
a round trip,-and re-inl-
ported it a few weeks later.

earth.
Special interest among space
experts in the Discoverer VIII
shot grew out of the feeling
that such a success could open
a week in which-temporarily
at least-America might wrest
leadership in space from the
Soviet Union.
An even more interesting
shot is scheduled for early
Thanksgiving morning at Cape
Canaveral, Fla, when the cil
william space agency will at
tempt to launch a huge Atlas
Able with the object of placing
an instrument package in orbit
around the moon.
The problem of aerial re-
covery of a capsule has been
compared to snatching a wash
tub out Of mid-air as it fell to
earth over an area the size of
the State of Maryland.
Essential Experiment
Nevertheless, recovery of an
instrument package from orbit
is more than a stunt and more
than merely desirable from a
technical viewpoint. 1t is ab-
solutely essential as a first step
toward man in space.
Until the technique Of recov-
ering a space capsule has not
only succeeded but has been
perfected, Project Mercury ano
other manned space flight ef-
forts must remain a dream.
Regardless Of the outcome oi
the recovery exercise, tn {

recovery capsule. OF the seven
previous launching attempts
five were successful in terms OF
achieving orbit, while two failed
to make the grade.
I The problems confronting
would-be rescuers of Discoverer
VIII were more staggering than
Those encountered in earlier re-
covery attempts.
Egg Shaped Orbit
For one thing, the big Thor
booster burned longer than had
been planned, and the result
was an egg-shaped orbit with
"a minimum altitude of l3O
miles and a maximum of about
l.035 miles. An ideal orbit
would be a circular one. Most
of the DISCOVERIES have had
least and greatest attitudes in
the neighborhood of 100 and
500 miles. respectively.
The eccentric orbit meant
that the latest capsule had tc
travel a greater distance on
each trip around the world
about 28.500 miles for Discover
er VIII as against 27,100 miles
in the more desirable orbit o1
Discoverer VII.
Rotation Problem
This extra 1,4O0 miles OBJ
viously took time to travel. The
extra time was the dlnerence
between the normal, desirable
95-minute period of most
earlier DISCOVERIES, and the 103
minutes of this one.
To complicate matters, the
earth was rotating eastward

Of is degrees every hour
roughly the distance between
Philadelphia and st. Louis.
At l03 minutes per orbit this
meant that every time the sat-
elite passed over a given
parallel of latitude on the
earth's surface it was nearly
26 degrees-roughly the dis
tance from Washington to
Denver-west of where it had
been on the previous pass.
To balance the books" so
to speak. the scientists decided
they had to bring the capsule
in early or give up the whole
project. But while they might
bring it in early at the proper
latitude. the longitude would
not be right because the earth
rotates on its axis at a GER
tain speed regardless of what
scientists decide. This meant
that brought in early the re-
covery package would come to
earth east Of the originally
planned drop zone.
Delay Impossible
To wait for another orbit
would mean that another 1903
minutes would have to pass,
and the problem then would be
to move the drop zone west
instead Of east and have the
additional disadvantage of few
er hours of remaining daylight.
