GREATDAM DESTROYED BY SOVIETS Pride of Fivfiear Plan Is | Blown Up to Keep from Hitler's Bandits MOSCOW, Aug. 28.—The Russian | forces have blown up the Great | Dnieper River Dam, the industrial | pride of the Soviet revolution. This | |is the official announcement made here tonight, | The official spokesman said: “We | blew up the dam so as not to allow | this first child of the Soviet five- | year plan to fall into the hands of the Hitler bandits.” The dam 1is located just south of Dniepertopetrovsk, on the lower part of the river, where the German forces are now entrenched.

INVESTIGATION OF HERRINGRUN NOW STARTING Patrol Boamane Heads for Kodiak and Prince William Sound | After only two hours in port here |1ast night, the Fish and Wildlife Service boat Crane pulled out for { Kodiak and Prince William Sound | districts to carry on an investiga- tion of the herring run. | The Crane recently completed |salmon patrol work in the Alaska | Peninsula district and made a round trip to Seattle with tem- |porary fisheries employees from the | Westward districts. Its present trip |is being made as a portion of thej | herring investigation work in Al- aska under a recent special Con- gressional appropriation of $34,000, !bcing administered by the scientific |division of the Fish and Wildlife Service. The work will include the tag- ging of herring and securing data on the age ratio of fish taken by ! commercial herring fisherman. Four plants on Kodiak Island and six manh on Prince William Sound are! |this year processing herring. ; It is expected that the 250,000~ | barrel quota of herring in the Kod- iak district will be reached by plant.\ eek. Up to the present time, 1\70\![ 190,000 barrels of the 250,- 000-barrel quota in Prince wmmm' Sound district has been taken. Commercial fishing for herring is | still being permitted outside the | boundaries of quota areas after | quotas have been reached. It is ex-| pected the herring operations in both areas will continue until late | fall, with the plants processing fish |irom outside the quota areas after | their quotas have been filled by the nearby fishing banks.
