No Coal From Lens
Mines Before 1921
A deepatch from Paris say':a-eat.;
though all possible efforts to recon -3
strurt the war -shattered Ininee of
Lens have been and. are beam; made
there it: now no hope that a single
ton of coal will 1,e extracted before;
1921. In feet, the task of bringing
beck Lem to its former prosperity is
eo immense that it is not expected!
that the town and its mines will re-
turn to anything' like their former
state before 1928 et 1929.
Provided that the work can be cal...!
ried on without interruption, it will
take all 1020 to clear the under -1
ground all,
of the debris with
which they were choked by the Ger-
mans. Most of the workings, and all
the deeper onus, are flooded.
A plan for drawing off the water
has been arranged. The reconstruc-
tion and repair of the tubbing will be,
carried out by German workmen, and
the cement for the purpose will be
brought from Germany. The pumping
out of tbe mines is expected to take
at lead three years. It is hoped that
by next year if will be possible to
extract coal from the first galleries,
which are only 600 feet deep, but it
is not expected that the water will- be
pumped out of the lower werekings,
whicb run down to 2250 yards, until
1023 or even 1924.
The railways in the Lens district
will not be completely repaired till
1921. Of the 800 workmen's dwellings
belonging to the Miners' Society, not
a hundred can be repaired. Four hun-
dred concrete huts are to be built In
Which it is hoped to house the 5000
workers who will be employed in the
clearing of the pits for the next two
or three years.
Prince of Wales Feted
At San Diego, Cal.
A despatch from San Diego. Cal.,
says: -San Diego was all smiles and
in gala attire to greet the Prince of
Wales, when he made a brief stop en
route to the Fax East on the British
battle cruiser, Renown. A citizens'
committee in launches sai-led out to
the entrance to San Diego Bay to
cheer and greet the Prince before he
was received officially by Governor W.
D. Stephens and a State Department
representative.
Vice -Admiral 'Williams arranged a
luncheon for the Prince when he visit-
ed the United States' Navy, as repre-
sented by the flagship 'Idaho. British
subjects and a citizens' committee
prepared a reception for him after
the visit to the fleet. An automobile
drive was sandwiched in between that
and an address at four o'clock at the
