Mrs. Mumm Fights To Be
+ an American Citi-
| zen Again

international marriages are not
happy. The dreamsN Of youth pic
ture q state Of happiness that does
not last. This case was no excep-
tion. During the period Of gesta-
tion and motherhood, when the
husbands affection and tender at
tentions were most needed by his
wife, he yielded to tire heguilements
Of the gay capitals OF the continent.
He gambled without a limit. He
did not omit wine and women in his
excesses. He forfeited his right 10
the affections Of his wife.
The world war broke out. The
necessity Of making change in the
place of residence Of the Mumm
family was imperative. They must
either move to Germany or be in
termed in France. 50 Mrs. Mumm
went to Germany with her husband,
to country she did not like. and
with a man who had forfeited his
right to her affection. She resided
there for time under intolerab,e
conditions. She then went to Bcrno
and resided in Switzerland until the
close Of the war. Then the State
Department permitted her to return
to the United States, her native
land and the land she loved. Now
it is important to her and to her
child that she be in a position to
assert her rights to her property In
France.
She has large property interests
in her husbands estate. Her own
property is there, hex household
goods End much OF her wearing ap-
parel are in Paris. She cannot even
secure handkerchief from her
personal effects, all the property be-
ing III control Of the Alien Property
Custodian in France, and she, being
| rated as German citizen, cannot
assert ho, rights TO it.
The government of France Is tc-
day disposing Of much OF the prop
erty Of the Mumm estate. She can
not by proper proceedings protect
her interest in that estate because
Of her citizenship. If she were an
American citizen the courts Of
France would give recognition to
her claim, 80 she could protect her
interests in her own property and
her interest in the property of her
husband. That is the purpose for

Mr.. CAMPBELL (of Kansas
Oh, no; the purpose I assume that
the Senate had in inserting the
word "unconditional" was to OBJ
viate any period of residence or
complying with the usual statutory
conditions.
Mr.. BLANTON-One other
question. This case is a. sampls Of
the history Of all or nearly all Of
the international marriages, ana
has not the time come, at least in
taking action by Congress, in such
cases to give the American girls to
understand that whenever they con-
tract these international marriages
they must bear the burden Of them :?
MR.. CANDLER--Whst has be

He is living probably in Germany
or some city Of Europe to which he
has access rs a German citizen.
Mr.. GOLDFOCI.E--How long
iid Mrs. Mumm live in Germany
after her marriage?
MR.. CAMPBELL {of Kansas)----
She never resided in Germany at ali.
She resided III France, and did not
20 to Germany until after the out
break Of the world waY, and then
remained there only few months.
MR.. GOLDFOGLE---How long
did she remain ia France?
MR.. CAMPBELL (of Kansas
She was married in 1918, and re-
manned in France until the outbreak
of the war.
