AMERICAN FORCES
 GET NEW HOMES

Coblenz. Dec 15.-Apartmentl houses built by the municipality of Coblenz, aided by the German gov ernment, were opened recently for accommodation exclusively of officers of the American Forces in Germany and their families. The purpose of condition of the city, which has been a problem ever since the Allied troops reached the Rhine.
 There are S2 apartments of five rooms each and all modern conven- fences, in the new buildings now be- ing taken over by the American faml- lies. Work on these apartments was started about two years ago to alley fate, as the Germans put it, 'an un- ! bearabIe situation as mo roof is large enough to cover two families" Additional quarters for non-con- nnissioned officers and their families are also under construction.
 Allied army officers say that the population of Coblenz perhaps has 1 been harder pressed by the army re- 1 quisition 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 ment houses will considerably i'm prove the present crowded condit-1n of the city.
 Tn Coblenz there are about 5000 rooms under requisition by the Amer ican army, the general policy of billet ing being similar in all the zones as 1T Belgians In the majority of cases, Allied families have been quartered in the same houses or apartments with German families, the Allied fam lilies occupying a separate part Of the house so far as practicable ana uslng the kitchen and bath in common with the German occupant
 As a consequence, disputes have arisen and the town major biEet1ng officer is often called upon to settle ~,them These disagreements almost f9variably have their origin due to caSse Of this difficulty, the policy has universally been adopted of installing, $ wherever possible, a separate kitchen for the Allied family.
 Generally. when a house or apart fnent has been taken over, the Ger mans have been permitted to take their furniture and personal belong snes with them. In the American area it is stated, however, that only 1n exceptional eases have Germans been required to vacate their homes or apartments entirely. One eight room school building.
