<p> &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp J. J. McCabe, of the <b>J. J. McCabe Lathe & Machinery Corporation</b> and one of the well-known men in the machine tool industry, died on January 17. As a dealer, Mr. McCabe, from time to time, handled the New York agencies of many well-known manufacturers of machine tools, including <b>Schumacher & Boye; Smith & Mills Co.; Carlton Machine Tool Co.;</b> and <b>G. A. Gray Co.</b> In the used machinery business, Mr. McCabe was one of the pioneers for nearly thirty-five years. When E. P. Bullard founded the <b>Bullard Machine Tool Co.</b>, of Bridgeport, Conn., devoted entirely to manufacturing, Mr. McCabe succeeded the old New York firm of the <b>E. P. Bullard Co.</b>, who were machine tool dealers, and with whom he had been associated since boyhood. As a manufacturer, Mr. McCabe was identified with the well-known "Two-in-One" double-spindle lathe, which he personally designed and which was manufactured under his patents for years. A few years ago, he also founded the present <b>J. J. McCabe Punch & Shear Co.</b> the plant of which is located at Chattanooga, Tenn. Mr. McCabe made many warm personal friends during his long connection with the machine tool industry, to whom his death will be a heavy loss. He leaves a widow and four children. Two of his sons, J. J. McCabe Jr. and Raymond J. McCabe, have been associated with him in business for a number of years, and under their able management, the organizations of the <b>J. J. McCabe Lathe and Machinery Corporation</b> and the <b>J. J. McCabe Punch & Shear Co.</b> will continue. </p>
