STEPHEN H. BARLOW Dies at 67; Was Ex-Jersey Military Official Special to The New York Times Pennington, N.J., July 8, 1962
Stephen H. Barlow, former State Quartermaster General, died tonight at Princeton Hopsital, shere he had undergone surgery Friday. He was 67 years old and lived on Elm Ridge Road here.
Often a controversial figure in state governmental affairs, Mr. Barlow resigned from the State Defense Department in 1948, shortly after the Quartermaster General's office was eliminated. He retained his other military position as United States Property and Fiscal Officer for New Jersey until five years ago.
Since then, he has been a vice president and director of Mount Clemens Industries, Inc., Pennsylvania metal products producers, and a consultatnt to Raymond International, a New York heavy-construction concern.
Mr. Barlow's military career began in 1913, when he enlisted as a private in a New Jersey quartermaster unit. He served in the Mexican border campaign in 1916 and overseas in World War I.
As a captain after the war, he was aide de camp to four Governonrs. In 1924, as a lieutenant colonerl, he was named assistant Quartermaster General.
Five years later, the Federal Government appointed him United States Property and Disbursing Officer for the state. In that capacity, Mr. Barlow handled Federal supplies and payments to the New Jersey National Guard. He held that position with a slight change in its title, until 1957.
Gov. A. Harry Moore appointed him Quartermaster General with the rank of brigadier general in 1934. As such, he was responsible for the summer executive mansion at Sea Girt because it was on a National Guard training site.
A Republican, General Barlow was frequently at odds with Democratic Governors and lawmakers over the Sea Girt mansion's expenses. In August, 1941, the mansion's food bill came to $5,533. The outlay for caviar along was $7.23 daily.
Gov. Charles Edison termed the sum "preposterous," ordered an investigation by Adjutant General James I Bowers and got General Barlow ousted as the state's procurement officer for its Selective Service boards.
General Bowers reported that General Barlow was guilty of laxity, but a Republican State Senate investigation exonerated him and charged the mansion's servants with faulty management.
Personal antagonism between the two general led Gov. Alfred E. Driscoll and the Legislature to abolish both their jobs in 1943, when the State Defense Department was created. General Barlow stayed on briefly as acting supply and disbusing officer.
He was a graduate of the Drexel Institute in Philadelphia.
He leaves his wife, the former Virginia Millman; a daughter, Mrs. Virginia B. Harvey; two sons, Bruce and David G.; ten grandchildren and a great grandchild.
