JONES DECLARES

Pointing TO the economic as
we'll as sociaig gains the Negro has
made under the Democratic adj
miniS,ratlon these last IL years.
former assistant prosecutor Of
Wayne county. Detroit, Charles
W. Jones, urged Negro America
to return Franklin d. Roosevelt to
the White House Nov 7, last
Thursday night in the Flint INA
auditorium before an audience Of
more than 1000 including several
hundred colored citizens.
The Democratic party is a
great national party; it is not the
exclusive property of any section,
race. color, or creed. or class. On
its broad base and under its great
banner men and women of all
sections. OF all faiths, of all races,
poor and rich alike, may stand"
Atty. Jones said.
He declared that IL the Demo-
cratic party fails in this historic
mission il will meet the fate
which has befallen the Republican
party when il became morally
bankrupted and failed to meet the
need OF any class and was repudi-
ated by the American people.
when we, as American Ne.
groes, saw the betrayal by the par.
ty we thought we could trust. we
rose in mighty wrath and contrib.
uted to its DOWNFALL; we trans.
ferred our allegiance with thu
Democratic party.
Our young men have been Civ
en- the opportunity to serve theil
country in capacities heretofore
denied Negroes. Our gallant 99tt
Pursuit squadron has demon
strated that Negroes can fly with
the best of them.
The loyalty OF the American
Negro has been demonstrated
from Bunker Hill to the Jungle
Of the South Pacific and tn,
Southern airhelds Of Italy. The,
have fought side by side with 9th.
er Americans, suffering, dying
and giving our all to make this
country and the world a better
place for all mankind" Atty.
Jones pointed out.
The attorney pointed to the
new employment opportunities
for Negroes OF America and also
the establishment Of the FEPC
and the inclusion of the non-dis-
criminatory clause in government
contracts; also TO better housing
among Negroes under government
ruling.
In concluding his address to the
audience he urged that each one
see to it that Franklin d. Roose-
welt be returned to the White
House on Nov. 7. Among the
prominent Democrats seated on
the platform to greet Vice-Presi-
dent Wallace on his arrival were:
Atty. John F. Youno, former as
sistant encouragement; Atty.
Charles w. Jones, former assistant
prosecutor of Wayne County, De-

NORTHEND THEATERS AID
IN LEGION FUND DRIVE

The Richard theater on Leith
street and the Columbia theater
on st. John street, theaters sue
cessfully assisted the American
Legion Post No. 200 in its drive
to create funds for establishing an
all-around program to meet the
needs Of the returning war vet
Grams.
Both theaters turned over the
proceeds Of one night to the post
fund. And in addition, showed
Negro newsreels, and at the Co
lumbia an all-Negro cast Aim. AT
the Richard theater the Legion
Post night was as usual packed,
although it rained and likewise
the midnight jamboree at the Co.
lumbia was success,
The Richard theater, under Its
new proprietors, are three steps
in advance of other enterprises in
the Northend with more than 80
per cent of Negro patronage.
Since the theater opened in Au-
gust this year it has consistently
employed Negroes. At present
there are at least three employed:
ticket-office, ticket receiver. and a
girl at the refreshment booth.
The Kenneth Oden Post No. 299
has become increasingly active in
rendering needful service to the
general public other than veter-
ans. Most recently a large build
ing has been purchased in view OF
widening its program and service
to the general public. 1t was
learned that officers Of the post
directly responsible for the
strength in the movement are:
Comm. Ira ,Crawley, vice-com-
mander; J. Cox. and Post-His-
torian E. c. Robinson.

Harrison, died in Mrs. Harrison.
December, 1886, in indianapolis. He
was the great-grandson Of President
william Henry Harrison and a
great-great-grandson of Benjamin
Harrison, one of the sisners of the
Declaration of independence.
A native of Omaha, Mrs. Harri-
son came to this city as a child
when her father. Alvin Saunders,
the Civil War Cove.::,or Of the Ter
ritory Of Nebraska, entered the Sem
ate. She attended Georgetown Visi-
tation Convent.
After her marriage to Mr.. Earrl-
son on January 10, 1854, she spent
her first winter as a bride at the
White House She was about the
same age as Mary Mckee. President
Harrison's married daughter, and
the two often assisted the Presi-
dents wife at public receptions and
other social affairs.
To Washington and generally
throughout the Nation they became
known as the two White House
Marys."
In recent years, Mrs. Harrison re-
called "the storm of discussion and
comn1otion" which followed the first
dance she believes was every given
in the East Room of the White
House, at which she and Mrs. Mckee
were joint hostesses.
1T was thought that such levity
was out Of keeping with the dignity
Of the White House and the tradi-
tions which should be observed
there" she said.
She remembered President Har-
rison not only as the conscientious,
hard-working Chief Executive but
as family patriarch who gathered
the members Of his household to-
gether each morning in the upstairs
sitting room to lead them In prayer
and a short Bible reading before
breakfast.
| Perhaps Mrs. Harrison's most un-
usual experience in the White House
was being quarantined there, toward
the end of her father -in-law's ad-
ministratlon, with her 2-year -old
daughter. who had contracted scar
let fever. This daughter, now Mrs.
Marthena williams, lived with Mrs.
Harrison at the Loughborough road
address.
A resident of this city for most of
her life, Mrs. Harrison was a charter
member of the Mary Washington
Chapter, Daughters of the American
Revolution, and a member of the
League Of Republican Women and
the Washington Club.
Besides her daughter, she is sur
vived by son, William Henry Har-
rison. III, recently elected to the
State Legislature of Wyoming; three
granddaughters, Mrs. John Leo De-
vine, jr., and Mrs. Paul Traynham,
both Of Washington, and Mrs. Cor
don williams, Dayton, Wyo.: a
grandson, william Henry Harrison,
Nv, Dayton, and one great-grand-
child.
Funeral services will be held at I
pm. tomorrow at the Hines funeras
nome Burial will be in Omaha.
