Unsuccessful Try At Interception WASHINGTON (UPD—The Air Force has disclosed it tried unsuccessfully to intercept the Discoverer V satellite with a ballistic missile launched from a supersonic B-58 jet bomber a week ago. The missile failed to send back any radio information and the Air Force said “test objectives were not accomplished.*’ It was launched over the Gulf Coast test range from Eglin Air Force Base, Fla. Discoverer V was put into north-south orbit on Aug. 13 and has a minimum altitude of 136 miles and maximum of 450 miles. The Air Force did not say Tuesday how close it wanted to come to the satellite or whether the aim was to hit it. The Air Force had disclosed previously that it canceled an attempt to put an air-launched ballistic missile across the path of the Explorer VI satellite. That effort was to have been made by a B-47 jet bomber over the Atlantic Missile Range off Cape Canaveral, Fla. when the Explorer VI was at its low point of about 160 miles. It was not meant to hit that satellite.

Tax Board Members Study Lake County INDIANAPOLIS (UPD — The three members of the Indiana State Tax Board headed for Lake County today to investigate economic conditions relating to the steel strike. Commissioners J.G. Newsom, wdavid R. Davis and Peter Beczkiewicz left this morning, with one of the questions they posed Tuesday already answered before their arrival. The board decided to go to the Gary area after Lake County Treasurer Michael Truchen appealed to the Statehouse for a moratorium on the collection of the fall installment Os personal property taxes, due Nov. 2. Davis said Tuesday the board wanted, among other things, to know what the steelworkers union was doing with a half million dollars he said it was supposed to have in a strike fund. At about the same time, Local 1014 of the USW began accepting applications from its needy members for payment of strike relief benefits at a maximum jrateof two sls payments each. That would be a S3O limit for those persons among the 17,000 membership who can prove the need for emergency aid exists. The board was chiefly interested, however, in disbursements of poor relief funds in the face of requests for additional appropriations which must be approved by the board.
