Abstract
"When the 8,750-foot-long Dalles Dam is planted firmly in the Big Eddy of the Columbia River at a cost of $350 million, the wreckage of the Old Fishing Village, now scattered along the Oregon shore like so many heaps of bleaching bones, will vanish. Yet even now, a little more than three years before the river is blocked and the flooding commences, almost unbelievable things are happening along a 25-mile stretch of the river. The foundation for work left by nature is being refashioned by men during the building of the world's third largest hydroelectric multipurpose dam, 70 air line miles from Yakima."
