CONSTRUCTION GREAT GOLDEN GATE BR|DGE
 WILL START JANUARY

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. II, = Early in January, actual work on the $75,000,000 San Francisco Oak land Bay bridge will be started with thousands of men finding en- -ployment on the structure and other thousands busy providing materials for the gigantic span.
 That was the indication in dis patches from Washington as state agencies plunged into preliminaries that will clear the way for con- struction.
 Hopes that the work might be- gin before the New Year were en- tertained when Washington ad- vices asserted that the state legis- lation grant $2,OoOOOO to aid the work. The legislature meets in January. The necessity for legis- lative action, however, will cause no appreciable delay in the project, according to C.. H. Purcell, chief engineer, who led the fight for amendments that made the huge loan possible.
 Purcell, interviewed in Washing ton yesterday, declared there will be no delay if the legislature acts promptly. We must advertise for bids on the West Bay superstruc- ture to cost $16, 6,6OO,OOO the bids to be open in 69 days" That means the bids could not be opened until January, when the legislature is in session.

HUGH SOVIET POWER DAM 0N DN|EPE2
 RIVER DEDICATED

MOSCOW, Oct, 11,-Soviet Rus sia realized a dream Monday when the greatest hydro-electric plant on the Dnieper River in the Ukra- inc Republic, and in the world, was completed and in operation.
 At the dedication Col. Hugh L. Cooper, American and chief consul late, and four American associates. were d ecOrat d by the Soviet Union, being awarded the Order of the Red Star, the first foreigners to be so honored. Great tributes were paid to the Americans by A. V. Winters, head of the Soviet ad- mlnistration of the project.
 The dam, 40 feet high, inn pounds the drainage of 100000 square miles and by eliminating a series of rapids, makes navigable the Dnieper river from the Black Sea. 200 miles south, to some dis tance above Dnieprostroy.
 To existing capacity, Dniepros- troy is expected to add an average annual production of 2,52O, ,OOO oOO klloWat-hours. Its nine turbines when in full operation, will have a capacity of 756,OOO horsepower. This compares with 43O,OOO horse power at Americas Niagara Falls, and 612,OO0 at Muscle Shoals.
 Since only three of Dniepros- troy's nine turbines can operate at all seasons, the plant will be SUD- plemented with reserve steam plants having 100000 horsepower capacity.
 Russian materials and Russian labor were used almost entirely in the construction, but American methods, supervised by American engineers and with American ma chlnery, were back of them. The American plans for construction were chosen after a comparative test was made between them and a European design.
 Russian labor set several records among which was the feat of pour Ing 10000 cubic meters of concrete in 1880. This, it is claimed, is more than ever had been poured before on a single project.
 The Soviet government plans to build another dam at Volgastroy that will have a capacity three times Dnieprostroy's and will ir- rigate 1O,OO0,OOO acres.

 OF THREE, UNDERT0W

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. II, - Before a crowd of 5000 persons one of the most thrilling rescues ever performed at the Ocean beach was accomplished by Edwin Ukini, Fleishhacker Pool life-guard. He brought in two Coast Guard sta tion men and a 16-year- boy who had been swept half mile off-Shore.
 Four times the crew of the Gold en Gate Life Saving Station had attempted to launch a life-boat only to see the craft swamped in the waves. Men equipped with life jackets had been sent out to find themselves helpless in the grip of the undertoW. A lifeline also failed to reach the swimmers.
 In this situation, after the trio had been off-shore for three-quar- terS of an hour, their lives almost deSpaired of, Ukini plunged into the water. With long, steady strok- eS he sWam to where the three speckS were bobbing helplessli in the sea. Then supporting the semi conscious boy and two guardsmen, he set his skill and remarkable current.
 When boats and life belts failed, the athletic figure in the racing bathing suit won out. He shaped a course diagonally across the cur rent, and to the cheers of thous- ands, brought all three safely to shore.

IN AKRON
SEEK REALTY BAN
Would Prevent Dealers From
Drawing Up Contracts and
Other Legal Forms.

Injunctions to prevent real estate
firms from drawing up contracts,
mortgage agreements, deeds of sale
and the like are threatened in court
action which has been instituted by
the Akron Bar Association against
Akron realty concerns, it is reported
by the National Association OF Real
Estate Boards.
The ban sougth by the bar associa-
ton of that city, if enforced, would
mean eventually that all real estate
men would have to maintain a law
yer in the completion Of every realty
transaction, 1t is contended by the
Akron Real Estate Board.
Unauthorized" practice of law, as
cited in this case, consists of the
preparation for customers and other
persons of deeds, mortgages, leases,
affidavitS, escrow agreements and con-
tracts for the sale and purchase of real
estate in which the real estate firm
is not a party and which it has no
direct or primary interest" it is re-
ported.
The Akron realtors. it is reported
are not contendfng to have right to
supply their clients with legal serv-
ices, but are claiming the right to
draw up documents essential to their
own business" They contend that
legal costs necessarily increase the
cost of the transaction to the pur-
chaser.
The National Association of Real Es-
tate Boards has been sponsoring uni
versal use of standard forms for real
estate transactions, such forms being
designed to eliminate the need of legal
costs and to insure against the omis-
sion, intentional or inadvertent, of pro-
visions which should have been made
to keep the transaction clear" the ma
