GERMAN GOVT.
 OPENS HOUSES
For Members Of American Forces
 and Friends

., Coblonz, Dec. ii. -- Apartment houses built by the municipality Of Cohlenz aided by the German gov ornment, were opened recently for accommodation exclusively of officers of the American forces in Germany and their families. The purpose of the houses is to relieve the crowded condition of the city which has been q problem ever since the allied troops reached the Rhine,
 There are S2 apartments Of five rooms each and all modern conVrn- fences, in the new buildings now be- ing taken over by the American fami- lies Work on these apartments was started about two years ago to ale Viate as the Germans put it, "an 1ln- bearable stuation," as mo roof is large enough to cover two families" Additional quarters for non-commis- stoned officers and their families are also under construction,
 Allied army officers say that the population of Cobenz perhaps has been harder pressed by the army requisition of quarters than any other occupied city. All available space for offices and billets has been under requisition for nearly three years, but German officials hope the new apart prove the present crowded condition of the city.
 In Coblenz there are about 5000 rooms under acquisition by the Am erican army, the general policy of Oii- letting being similar in all the zones as occupied by the French, British and Belgians In the majority Of cases, allied families have been quar- tered ip the same houses or apart ments with German families, the al- lied families occupying separate part of the house so far as practic- able and using the kitchen and bath in common with the German occu- pant.
 As e consequence, disputes have arisen and the town major or billet ing officer is often called upon 10 settle them. These diaagrecment5 al- most invariably have their origin due to the joint use of the kitcten. Rc- cause of this difficulty, the policy has universally been adopted of installing wherever possible, a separate kitchen for the allied family
 Generally, when house or apart ment has been taken over, the Ger mans have been permitted to fake their furniture and personal belong ings with them. In the American area it is stated, however, that only in exceptional cases have German. been required to vacate their home; or apartments entirely.
