COBLENZ, April g. (Correspon- dence of The Associated Press)-The intelligence section of the American Army continues to keep strict watch of the movements of the German Army and will continue to do so until the American Army of Occupation leaves the Rhineland for home after the signing of the peace treaty.
 Recent reports to the Americans holding the Coblenz bridgehead are ,o the effect that the few units of the old German standing army which were performing any active service early in February appeared to have been re- organized on uniform plan. The ma jority of these troops, information m the hands of the Americans indicate, are simply drawing pay and passing the time the bes. way possible in their home depots, patiently awaiting dis charge or having made up their minds to remain in service in preference to seeking employment in civil life.
 These units are divided between those who gre pe,fc, tly willing to per form active service and those who ere not. The willing ones, usually includ- ing most of the tff;c,is and non-com- missioned officers have taken new name ior their organization, but con- tinue to use the depots and other fa- utilities of the old unit. The unwilling soldiers also have been remaining in the depots of the old unit.
 It was in this manner that the Rein hardt regiment which fought the Spartacists in Berlin and which early
