JOHN HOWE, BANK
PRESIDENT, DIES
Found Dead in Bed After At
tack of Indigestion; Stricken
at Bankers Convention.

Former Freebooter John Howe was
found dead in bed at his home in
Prospect street, Nutley, today. Death
was due to acute Indigestion, from
which he had suffered since Friday,
when he was stricken while attend
ing the. brokers' convention in At
lantic City.
Mr.. Howe returned home on Mon
day feeling very i'll. He continued
at his business duties. Last night
his condition became serious, and DR..
A. H. Van Ripper was called in. He
appeared to fall asleep later on, and
the afmily retired. When one of the
family went into his room this morn
ing he was found dead.
Mr.. Howe, who was sixty eight
years old, resided in Nutley forty
two years. He was born in Somer-
set, England, and came to Nutley in
1872 as a workman in the ]. q r..
kingsland paper mills. Following
the failure of this company Mr.
Howe, together with Thomas J.
O'Niel and the late William R. Sar-
geant, established the Kingsland
Paper Company and began the manu-
facture of a safety banking paper.
Mr.. Howe was chosen as president
of this company. Some years later
a consolidation was made with the
George B. La Monte Company, which
was also making similar paper. Mr..
Howe was made secretary of this
firm and served in that capacity I'M
til his death. Mr.. Howe was said to
be one of the wealthiest men in Nut
ley.
He served two terms on the Board
of Freeholders and was twice elected
councilman from the Second ward.
He was a member of Nutley Lodge
of Masons and Nutley Lodge of Elks
A month ago he was selected as
president of the Nutley Bank, of
which he was a director from the
time of its organization. He was
largely instrumental in having the
holdings of the Peoples Bank and
Trust ompany, of Passaic, in the
Nutley bank taken over during the
past year.
Besides his widow, he is survived
by two daughters, Mrs. Jesse R.
Kingsland and Mrs. Edward c..
Clark; two sons, James J. Howe and
Albert E. Howe, and two sisters, who
are in England. Final arrangements
for the funeral which will be held
Saturday. have not been completed

SCHOOL BOARDS
PLAN APPROVED
MilIburn Voters at Special
Election lndorse Proposal
to Spend $4,000.

The proposition of the Millburn
Board of Education TO spend $4,000
on additions and improvements to
the Short Hills High School building
was approved by the voters of the
township at a special election last
night by vote of $40 to S42. It was
the largest meeting of the kind ever
held in the township.
The election was necessary, because
at the election in March the item OF
s16,05 for current expenses was de-
feated, and it was necessary to have
this money to run the schools. In
addition to this amount, two other
propositions were submitted by the
Board of Education-one for $4,000
for making repairs to the building
and the other for $50, 900 for enlargtng
it, The smaller appropriation would
simply make the building more nearly
fireproof, but would reduce the num-
Der of class rooms and the building
then would be used only for the
higher grammar grades.
If this proposition was carried it
was proposed to send the high school
children either to South Orange OF
Summit, where, 1t was claimed, the
children would receive better edu-
cation at a greatly reduced cost, The
item of S16050 for current expenses
received S78 votes, the $39, 900 propo-
sition received $40 and the $4,000 for
z repairs received 331 votes.
Six votes were rejected, the most Of
them being double ballots. One won-
an voter was so anxious to carry the
S39, 900 proposition that she folded to-
gether three of these ballots, and to
make it doubly sure she wrote her
name on the outside.
