TO HEAR g. CASES
Naturalization Applications Up
Friday and Saturday.
One Applicant Has Lived Here
Forty Years.

Hearings on sixty-two applications
for naturalization will be held in the
first division of the district court
next Friday and Saturday. Govern
ment naturalization examiners VIII be
on hand to conduct the hearings.
Thirty-six of the sixty-two cases to
be heard were continued from the last
naturalization day. The old cases in
clude that of Martin Peterson, 513
Van Buren, street, whose application
first came up in January, 1921.
Peterson is a native of Sweden but
has lived in Topeka about forty years,
having come to America in 1859. He
customs of the United States but the
thing that is standing in the way of
the receipt of his final papers is some
testimony at past hearings that his
loyalty to the United States during the
World War was doubtful. Witnesses
testified that he had once torn down
the American flag. that his wife re-
fused to obey the request of the gov
eminent to conserve food and that he
had made remarks regarded as in
dicative of sympathy with Germany.
Judge George Whitcomb overruled
the request of Chester Ramsey, nat
uralization examiner, that Peterson
case be dismissed, and ordered that
the aged man be given a chance to de-
fend himself against the charges that
had arisen unexpectedly.
