Coblenz, Saturday Dec. 2S.-The
steadily increasing number OF uneln-
ployed men in Coblenz and other towns
in the occupied area is causing the
American officers considerable anxiety.
Many Of the Idle men are discharged
German soldiers. An official count
made today by the burgomaster shows
500 laborers and $50 skilled workmen
without employment.
Those who can not obtain work are
entitled to daily bounty of three
marks fifty pfennig from the city. I'm
employed laborers have been offered
work by the city at four marks per
day, but only a. few have accepted.
The ordinary wage is six marks day
Efforts are being made to restore dis
charged soldiers to their pre-war oc-
cupations. replacing women now Fold-
lug the positions.
Reports from the country Indicate
there is plenty of work there, but Off
cials have found difficulty in induc-
ing laborers to leave the city.
Americans Seize Much Cloth.
More than 100000 yards Of grey
German uniform cloth has come into
the hands Of the Americans from the
warehouses at Coblenz and the Amer
leans are considering plans to use it.
In warehouse in Coblenz-Lutzel,
Americans have found 100000 pounds
of shoe leather and machinery for re-
pairing shoes. A plan is under con-
sideration to use this repair factory
for'remakins shoes for the army Of oc-
cupation. This machinery. can be
operated by the Americans and the
leather is of good quality showing that
|Nhe Germans had everything necessary
in the line Of footwear
In shop windows in Coblenz can be
seen shoes the soles Of which are made
of from ten to twenty small pieces of
leather. 1t is almost impossible to buy
a pair of shoes that is soled properly.
Material abandoned by the Germans
include harness made Of paper. and
steel breast plates worn BY snipers. At

shells that the work Of counting them
is barely begun, altho American SOL
