Piano Company ACCUSE LAND CO. IN VILAS COUNTY CROATIAN SETTLERS BRING COMPLAINTS AGAINST G.

F. BORN BEFORE BOARD Three complaints have been filed with the Wisconsin Real Estate Brokers' board against G. F. Sanborn, owner of a large amount of real estate in Vilas county, who holds a broker's license. The complainants are Adam Adamvich, lobar Croatian settlers who have ovich, Procic, and Tomo Vukopurchased land in the Sanborn tract.

Adamovich declares that in July, 1920, he agreed with G. F. Sanborn and agents to purchase certain lands, and paid $1,000 down. Later, he charges, representatives of Sanborn Co. said they could not sell him the lands upon which the original payment was made and that he then bought an improved farm from Sanborn Co.

Adamovich alleges it will cost him $1,750 more than he expected because of incumbrances which he declares he did not know existed. The complaints of Procic and Vukovich are to the effect that they will have to pay an interest rate on loans for development their farms of 8 per cent, when they expected, because of representations they claim were made at the time of the sale, to obtain the money at six per cent. They also claim commissions are ing charged by the Sanborn company for loans they did not anticipate. The board will conduct a hearing at Eagle River soon on these complaints. Representatives of the Sanborn company claim the complaints all originate with a.

former employe who was largely instrumental in having Croatians settle on the Sanborn tract. This employe left Sanborn Co. early in May, and according to the company was responsible for many dealings which it had not approved. The board will conduct a hearing at West Bend on a complaint filed against Charles Stauske, real estate agent, asking revocation of his license. Among charges are that mis-statments were made in application for a license, it being claimed that he did not report legal actions in which he had been a defendant.
