                        HONORING HOWARD ST. JOHN

                                 ______
                                 

                        HON. MAURICE D. HINCHEY

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, October 13, 1998

  Mr. HINCHEY. Mr. Speaker, before we adjourn for the year, I wanted to 
take a moment to honor Howard St. John, who is stepping down from the 
chairmanship of Ulster Savings Bank after a long and very rewarding 
career there. Howard has had, in a sense, many careers--as a District 
Attorney, President and member of many professional and charitable 
boards and associations, and as a very successful local businessman. 
Through his many endeavors and successes he has never lost his warmth 
and generosity or his personal touch with regular people. He has 
contributed to the health and well being of numerous families 
throughout the Hudson Valley, helping them to realize their dreams in 
many different ways. I join my friends back home in saluting him upon 
his retirement from Ulster Savings Bank and wish him the very best in 
what I hope will be a long and fruitful retirement.
