GERMAN MAY
LOSE LAND
Wausau Man, Unnaturalized May For
felt Government Homestead.

Chicago, Ill.-H. J. Symmetrical, 65
years old, a native of Germany, declar-
ed his intention to become an Ameri-
can citizen when he homesteaded on
100 acres near Wausau, Wis, several
years ago.
Bad crops brought him to financial
straits and today he learned that fail
ure to perfect his naturalization i'm
periled his title to the farm and would
prevent him from mortgagirg it.
Summerfeld told his troubles to the
local settlement of the United States
reclamation service and was informed
that he could not mortgage the land
and that being still a citizen Of Ger
many, he probably would have to sur
render his farm since he had no actual
title to it. A United States commits
sioner confirmed the ruling of the re-
clamation office and Summerfeld re-
turned today to the homestead on
which he settled seven years ago.
