Simms, United Press Staff Correspondent) With the British Armies in the Field, July 25 (By Mail) Sooner or later Lens, capital of France's "Black Country" or coal belt, will fall before the evertightening pressure put upon it by Sir Douglass llaig. When this day comes America can render France and her Allies no greater service than to send immediately to this region the experts necessary to put the coal mines in order in the shortest possible time. For three years France has been deprived of the richest coal deposits she possesses. In the Loire, Burgundy Nivernais, Gard, Blanzy, d'Aubin, Decazeville and Car maux, it is true there are coal mines but these are not to be comparel with those in the northern part of the county, around Lens. This deposit runs from east to west, from Belgium to Flechinelle, in France' and since the German occupation it is only the extreme western end of it which the French have been able to work. And this is the hard est to work, being deep below the surface. Whereas in Belgium the coal is practically on. top of the ground, at Anzin it is 120 feet down and deeper the further west ii runs. At Douai it is 480 feet deep; at Flechinelle about 1,800 feet. . The vein of coal from the Belgium frontier to Flechi nelle is about 65 miles long by 10 miles wide. Prior to .the war of the 39 millions of tons extracted from French soil, three-fifths came from here or about 25,000,000 tons. Even with this, France has always been compelled to buy from the outside almost as much coal again as she pro duced, half of which came from Belgium from the coun try around Mons, Charleroi and Liege, seized by Germany as her very tirst act ot war, It is this country, around Lens and behind Lens to the east, which the Prussian warlords are defending1 re gardless of the cost in German lives. And here it is that British pressure is growing ever stronger. Every blow struck this summer has yielded a net gain in the direction of these coal fields and a retirement any where from Arras to the sea would be more injurious to Germany from an economical point of view that at any other part of the western front. Fighting in this country is extreme ly difficult. On the sea where Brit ish Tommies have recently made their appearance, there are sand dunes which make trenches almost impos sible. Fighting there is like fighting in the Sarah Desert. Further south along the line is water, water every where, spread out over the flat coun try. Everybody knows what the country about Ypres is like, and around Messines Ridge while below that comes La Bassee and Lens, with SPRUCE INVESTIGATORS ARRIVE IN PORTLAND Portland, Aug 13 (United Press) F.

They scorchingly arraigned the forces delaying logging operations. Summer Complaint During the hot weather of the sum mer months some member of almost ovry family is likely to be troubled with an unusual looseness of the bowels, and it is of the greatest im portance that this be treated prompt ly, which can only be done when the medicine is kept at hand.

Such is the country over which the British are now fighting. If the Ger man are beaten back out of the coal country they will da as they have done already at Lens: Destroy the mines by blowing them up or flood ing them, or hoth. But American min ers are said to be the best to be had and certainly the United States can do no better than to send hundreds of them over here to reclaim the ruins for even if the Prussians do their work so completely as to render the mines useless for the remainder of the war, reconstruction of France and Belgium will depend largely on fuel supply. relieved me.
