Did II ever occur to you that this
approaching Dempsey Carpenter
entertainment will be the first
heavyweight championship in over
twenty years where one or both of
the principals hasn't weighed over
200 pounds?
The last meeting where both were
under 200 runs back to the Corbett-
Fitzsimmons engagement at Carson
City. nearly twenty-five years ago.
At that meeting Corbett weighed
lS2 and Fitz 160, the lightest amount
of flesh that ever grappled for a
modern heavyweight championship.
Jeffries weighed around 21S, John
son about EOS. willard from 245 to
$50.
Now we are back to normal again
with Dempsey to weigh approxi-
mately 1SS against Carpenters 172.
These lighter weights call for a
greater amount of skill and speed
than the battling mammoths could
show. So spectators will see far
more combined action at Jersey City
this, July than they saw at Toledo
two years ago, where the action
was confined TO the smaller party.
Fitz at 160 could stop Corbett, but
Jeffries was too big and strong for
the Lanky One. Fitz had to give
away fifty pounds in this fight
Dempsey gave away sixty-five
pounds at Toledo. but willard was
not quite a Jeffries. Not quite.

AMSTERDAM, Feb. 12.--woman's suf-

through the agency OF circus sideshows,
wherein the wild Man Of Boreo" and

while the crowds waited for the big

Head hunting and kindred savage
pastimes still continue, to some extent,
within the jungles of these Dutch ISL

most Of the natives are rapidly adopting
modern theories.
In Java. the upper class native
women. under leadership OF Raden Ad-
jeng kartini. a woman of high birth,
are reported to BE making rapid strides
toward emancipation. although the Mo-
hammedan custom Of polygamy still
prevails. In all the "Kartini Schools"
tho girls Of the upper classes are being
taught Occidental theories OF equality
with the men. Dutch correspondents
say the progress OF the movement Is
necessarily slow but appears to be GER

Some idea of the rea, extent \. shc
damage done by the German invaders
may be had by n comparison. Of the
mine output figures for 1914 and 1919
In the first seven monras of 1914 the
tonnage reached more than 100000
tons in the area of Amin, with more
than 100000 from the mines OF
Aniche, the chief pits OF the Department
of Nord. In 1919 the total output of all
the mines in the two areas did not
reach 100000 tons, and 1t Is douotful
whether a million tons will be obtained
this year.
Yet the mines OF Nord were not as
badly ruined as those of Pas-de-Calais,
where some of the richest holdings
were completely flooded and supporting
tinabers stolen in order to make shell
ters for the enemy troops. Experts arc
now preparing for the relaying of
nearly fifty miles of rails in the Anzin
and Aniche regions, the Germans hav-
ing not only destroyed all canal and
river bridges but dynamited the ex-
tensive trackage system connecting the
mines to the great transport arteries of
the north of France.
When this is done, work will proceed
more rapidly on the reparation OF min

France Begins Removal of
1,5OO, 900 Soldier Dead

Special Cable 10 THE NEW YORK HERALD.
Copyright, 1921, ey THE NEW YoRK HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau,
Paris. Feb. l2.
FRANCE has just begun the
tremendous task of remov-
ing more than 100000 bodies
of war heroes from the battle
fields between the North Sea and
the Vosges to cemeteries in
towns and villages whence the
soldiers came. Eight sections of
the front will be cleared consec-
utively, the entire work lasting
more than year. In cases where
relatives do not claim bodies the
latter will be reinterred in Gov
ernment cemeteries nearest
where the men fell. The others
will be collected at central dis
tributing stations, whence trains
containing thousands of tri-color
draped coffins will leave every
few days in all directions. The
Verdun and Chemin des Danes
dead will not be removed until
late next year. The British army
has almost completed the re-
burial Of it's dead in special
graveyards behind the old British
front. The United States service
expects to have TIE American
fronts cleared of dead in another
twelve months.

Paris. Feb. 1e.
France will not regain her peace
time stability until the French Min
istry of Finance begins the repayment
of $1,000. 100000 francs advanced by
the Bank of France during the war, Is
the belief of NJ Robineau, governor
Of the bank, whose report on the
fiscal condition Of the nation is recelv-
ing the widest attention from Euro
pean economists.
1.-THE first definite effort TO reim-
burse," says VI. Robineau. will be
taken throughout the world as a for
NAL indication that commerce and in
dustry may thereafter with all secur-
ity transact business In francs either
on long or short terms. because the
value OF the franc will thus finally be
rescued from the evil effects of arti-
flcial influences such as are repre-
sented by the needs of the State"
NJ Robineau Is far from being a
pessimist and Is confident that France
Is coming back faster than is usually
appreciated in big business circles The
treasury is somewhat embarrassed" he
says. "but this condition may be ma
terially reduced by resolute policy OF
compressing public expenditures such as
Paul Doumer French Minister of FL
nancel Is attempting TO inaugurate. In
consenting during the last year to as
sumo more than 5000, 900. 900 francs in
new taxes the public has accepted cour-
Aeeously all charges necessary to stabil-
i2e the normal budget
To Restore Devastated Regions.
"In bringing forth during the sam.
year more than $4,000. 900. 900 francs. not
ircluding the exchange OF old securities
for treasury credit and national loans.
France has affirmed her will for a more
prompt restoration OF her devastated
regions and has proved the abundant
&C nfidence she has In herself. But all
this is unava.ling II greater economies
are not sought"
VI. Robineau admits that he Is some
what disappointed by the Government s
failure to repay as promised the initial
5000. 900, 900 francs in premiums on the
national loan now outstanding. This he
believes would have been of great assist
ance In aiding struggling industrialists.
In fact. even when the first payment
Is made this year 1t will not be trans
ferred to the bank as reserve to reduce
imitation. as some believe, but 1t Will be
applied to commercial purposes.
The French fnancier calls attention
TO the fact that many foreigners have
taken advantage OF the exchange varia-
tions to transfer huge accounts In francs
to French banks. which not only ham,
pers exchange improvement but inter-
