Description
Fushun Power Plant in Fushun, Manchuria. Large power plant (View Number 1) showing empty foundations from which Units Number 1 and Number 2 complete with condensers and accessories were removed during Soviet occupancy. Four 50,000 KW (each) steam-electric generators were removed, leaving only two operable units remaining in an adjacent plant having a total capacity of 50,000 KW (but only operable at half capacity because of poor condition). Photograph taken during the U.S. Reparations Mission. Edwin Pauley was the U.S. Ambassador on the Allied Reparations Committee from 1945-47 (the committee that assessed the reparations the Axis powers could afford to pay the victors).
