WATER RUSHING THROUGH GATUN SPILLWAY

The tremendous force of the water rushing through the Gatun spillway of the Panama canal when the great steel gates are partly opened is well depicted in this photograph. The electrical energy for the operation of the canal will be generated here, in the building a corner of which is seen at the right of the picture.
