For division problems with single-peaked preferences (Sprumont,1991) we show that all sequential allotment rules, identi…ed by Barberà,Jackson and Neme (1997) as the class of all strategy-proof, e¢ cient and re-placement monotonic rules, are also obviously strategy-proof. Although ob-vious strategy-proofness is in general more restrictive than strategy-proofness,this is not the case in this setting.
