It said that probably 1,000 bombs fell In the town of Rlthimakl and the surrounding area alone. Today's two alarms In the capi tal were of 10 minutes each, one beginning at 8:30 a. m., the second at 8:50. Deny Kolvlsto Taken The semi-official Finnish news agency denied a Russian army com munique that the reds had cap tured the Finnish coastal fortress of Kolvlsto, western anchor of the Mannerhelm line on the Karelian Isthmus. The agency said Kolvlsto was still In Finnish hands and intact despite unrelenting Russian attacks. Apparently attempting a knock out blow from the skies, the Soviet aerial armada ranged southern and central Finland through the nignt and into the early mornlna hours, sending bombs crashing onto cities, railways and roads. Nothing In the world's wars to date approaches the power of the Russian aerial offensive. "Very many enemy tanks were destroyed," the Finns said, In the western sector near the Gulf of Finland, scene of some of the war's heaviest fighting which has brought the Russians within a few miles of Viipurt Enemy losses were described as heavy at Talpale where Finns said "the fighting raged fiercely until late at night." Northeast of Lake Ladoga, SO miles from the isthmus front, there was relative quiet on the sector where Finland two days ago report ed wiping out a Russian division, but "a few enemy strong points were captured." Kuhmo Drive Fails A Russian attempt to send rein forcements to surrounded detach' ments near Kuhmo, about midway on the Russian-Finnish frontier, was repulsed. Finnish planes scouted behind the Soviet lines and bombed Russian encampments during a day which saw extensive aerial activity ex tending into the night. ."Several fierce air battles" were reported both In the war zone and far behind the lines but "In many cases attacks by enemy formations were foiled and formations disper sed." The Finns charged a passenger train was machine-gunned and In one locality an . infants' nursery damaged by bombs. However, only "a couple of civilians" were reported killed in the raids. Air Raids Resumed Two air raid alarms sounded In Helsinki as Russian warplanes re turned to Finland to follow up their far-ranging raids of yesterday In which 10 persons were killed and 20 hurt in attacks on at least 30 communities. Eight hundred Russian planes were authoritatively estimated to have participated In yesterday's raids, which continued into the early morning.

The Columbia River Fishermen's Protective union said the tie-up, the first In the history of winter opera tions to supply the fresh fish mar ket, was a "walkout" but not a strike. Fishermen demanded IB cents a pound for salmon and 10 cents a pound for steelhead. Buyers re cently cut salmon to 13 cents and s tee mead to eight, attributing the decline to release of frozen Alaska stocks and the unseasonal troll fishing off the Washington coast.
