selected model that posed for that

No COAL FROM
LENS UNTIL 1921
Tremendous Task to Clear
Mines of Debris and
WreCkage of War.

PARIS. Feb. l4.-Although all
possible efforts 10 reconstruct the
war shattered mines Of Lens have
been and are being made. there is
now no hope that a single ton OF
coal will be extracted before 1921
In fact. the task OF bringing back
Lens 20 its former prosperity IS so
immense that it is not expected that
the town and its mines will return
TO anything like their former state
before 1928 or 1929.
Provided that the work can be
carried on without interruption, 1t
will take all 1920 TO clear the un-
derground workings OF the debris
with which they were choked by
the Germans. Most Of the workings
and all the deeper ones are flooded.
A plan for drawing of the water
has been arranged. The reconstruc-
ton and repair OF the tubing will
be carried out by German workmen,
and the cement for the purpose will
be brought from Germany. The
pumping out OF the mines is expect
ed 20 take al least three years. II
is hoped that by next year It will
be possible 20 extract coal from the
first galleries. which are only 600
feet deep. but II IS not expected that
the water will be pumped out of the
South Bend news-times. (South Bend, Ind.) 1913-1938, 1920-02-15
