ARMY MUST MOVE
 BECAUSE BUSINESS
 IS TOO LIVELY

COBLENZ, Jan. 21 (By Mail) - The sales commissary of the Third American army in Coblenz was compelled to move recently because of too much business. The building occupied by the commassary was on a corner of one of the principal streets of Coblenz and American soldiers formed such long kueues that at times the thoroughfare was choked, so the commissary was transferred to side street. When it was first opened, its great shelves of canned fruit, jam, butter and other foods attracted so much at tention from the German civilians that military police shad to be de- tailed to prevent them from blocking the entrance to the building.
