DREDGE BLAST
CAUSES DAMAGE
Continued from Page One)

Dredging company, owner of the
dredge he had never seen a worst
breakdown. In his opinion, the &C
cident was caused by the vibera-
ton of the machinery. This was
the result of many roots, stumbs
and logs passing through dredging
pipes and causing the engines to
lose vacuum and creating a terrific
vibration.
According to several members of
the crew. the dredging of the basin
has been anunusually hard job due
to the roots and logs.
F. R. Warner, vice-president of
the dredging company, flew to Will
mington last night to investigate
the accident.
The Elliott Turbine company,
builders of the machinery, is send
ing an expert from it's Genette,
Penn, factory to inspect the dam
and to determine the length of time
it will to require return the dredge
to operations.
The company estimated that the
dredging job would have been lin
ished in December. There are a.
600, 900 yards of material yet to De
removed from the basin. For the
past four months, the dredge has
averaged a million yards a montn:
It is capable of pumping z.ooo
Yards an hour on an 18 out of "a
hour schedule.
The PENNSYLVANIA has the dis
tinction of being the largest oreose
east of the Mississippi. 1t IS equip
ped with a 164ton cutter heao
which feeds into a 33-lnch suctlon
pipe.
The dredge was used in the con-
struction of the Norfolk, Va, Naval
Air station.
