pointed chief engineer of sanita
tion for Cuba. He served under
Gen. Leonard Wood in this capac
ity for a year and a half.
His love for Cuba and its people
lasted throughout his lifetime.
He returned there many times,
and during his last illness the
government of Cuba recognized
his services in their behalf by dec
orating him with the Order of
Carlos Manuel de Cespedes.
In 1909, Mr. Bean was ap
pointed by President Taft as a
member of a committee to in
vestigate Post Office employment,
to recommend a unified system of

tional Press Club, the National

George of New York City now
living at the Q street address;
one daughter by a former mar
riage, Mrs. Gladys Holdstock

wishes that, instead of sending
flowers, his friends make contri
butions to the St. John's Church
Memorial Fund, in which he was
deeply interested.
U. 5. Admits Szigeti
After 5-Day Detention
By the Associated Press
NEW YORK, Nov. 21.—Joseph
Szigeti, 58-year-old Hungarian
born violin virtuoso, prepared to
day to leave on his 25th American
concert tour after his release from
Ellis Island.
The musician, one of the fore
most living concert violinists, was
detained five days at Ellis Island
after his arrival here from Paris.
Immigration and Naturalization
Service officials gave no reason for
Mr. Szigeti’s detention and gave no
explanation on his release.
The violinist’s lawyer, Sidney
Diamond, said, however, that a
board of special inquiry had or
dered that the virutoso be “ad
mitted as a returning permanent
resident.’
Although the precise nature of
the charges against Mr. Szigeti
were not disclased, the New York
Times said it had learned they
were based on the use of the musi
cian’s name as sponsor or patron
of several war-time committees or
organizations subsequently de
clared to be subversive by the
United States Attorney General.

Passport for France
By the Associated Press

firmed reports were heard here to
day that Dr. Sun Fo, son of the
late Dr. Sun Yat-sen, finally has
won a passport from the Chiang

in semiexile at Hong Kong since
the Nationalists gave up China’s
mainland to the Communists.
The refugee Nationalist govern
ment at Foromsa long had refused
to issue him a passport. Appar
ently it hoped he might be per
suaded to return to Formosa and
bring his own wide following into
the Nationalist fold.
Sun Fo adamantly has refused
reconciliation. He split with
Chiang in Nanking six months be
fore the Communist "liberation”
of that city.
