Won Damn Renowned
His Citizenship
Is Report On Coast
Investigation Started BY Federal
Officials, Based On Intlmatlon
BY Schroeder That Former Ho-
noIuIan Surrendered His Rights

Whether for not Bertram Won Damn,
former manager of the insurance de.
pnrtmCnt of II. Hackfeld & Company,
renouncpd his American citizenship
when he was stationed In Stockholm
during part of 1914 and 1915 has been
subject Of official investigation by a
special department on the Coast for ut
least the past five or six weeks, says
District Attorney s. G. Huber.
The investigation was started because
of an intlmation by Fl. A. Schroeder,
former secretary to the Honolulu Ger
man consul, Georg Rodiek, that Won
Damn had had to renounce his Ameri-
can citizenship in order to serve Ger.
many and II. Hackfeid & Company as
m attachc of the German embassy in
Stockholm.
Schroeder was implicated with Ro,
dick in the Hindu conspiracy and fined
$1,000, after he had pleaded guilty to
breaking the American neutrality Jaws.
His intlmatiOns concerning Won Damn
arc supposed to have been made be-
cause he is sore at the Odium which
was placed upon him, and which so far
Won Damn has evaded.
These hntimations are said to have
been made to HOnolulans with whom
Schroeder has tried to clear his name
by directing the conversation toward
Won Damn : suspected actions as a Ger
man agent in the beginning of the Eu
ropean war. He is said to have put his
InmucndO in somewhat sthe following
words:
- Is 1t reasonable to suppose that Ger
many would employ anyone but a Ger
man citizen as an attache at her EN-
hasSv!
Schrocnrr has never been quoted az
making direct charge against Won
Damn.
SO far as is known here the Ameri
can agents have not secured any evil
dPncr yet that Won Damn did renounce
his American citizenship, but are max
ing as thorough an investigation as is
possible under war conditions. It Is
pointed out that Won Damn did not
exercise his right of suffrage since he
returned to Hawaii from Stockholm.
In case it is established that Won
Damn reaffirmed his loyalty to the
German government in order to act as
its confidential agent he will be sub
icctcd to intcrnment by the United
States rs an alien enemy, even though
he was at one time naturaliZed as an
American citizen.
