and hard fight in appointing
Jones, MISS the boat by not ap-

would have to campaign during

Judge Jones, appointed TO the
Recorders Court bench by Gov.
C. Mennen Williams, was de-
feated by more than 100000 votes
in the off-year election last Tues
day.
Despite the fact that he won
over his nearest opponent in the
primary by more than $4,000
votes, in field of nearly 80 cam
didates.
Many Ramifications
Reason for Jones' failing TO
duplicate his victory in the gen.
eral election are many, varied,
erroneous, varied and valid. And
matter not how brief or long this
article may be, it win not entail
in detail numerous ramifications
involved in 'The Case of Judge
Jones'"
Here are a few of the remarks
made by veeran observers:
Cd The front page headline Of
the Detroit Free Press, plus a
later editorial (the former factual,
the latter obviously politically
vicious) wiped-out any chance
Jones might have had of being
elected; in fact, had it not been
for the news story and editorial
stating that the Judge was a bar
owner, he might have been easily
elected.
Historic Effort
(2) Governor Williams, along
with his political advisers saw
the historic" effort backfire. In
stead of appointing Jones SO soon
after the death of Judge c. A.
Stein, the Governor should have
waited and appointed Jones to
serve the remainder of the de-
ceased Judges term. According
to law, Williams didn't have 70
make an appointment immediate
ly following Stems death. A
ninety-day wait was an alterna-
tive.
90 An UNCLE TOM Common
ly known or identified with the
Negro race repeatedly tipped off
the newspaper to Jones' owner
ship for a few paltry dollars. The
Free Press staff writer whose by
line appeared over the story, al
legedly is a close friend to the
UNCLE TOM, and repeatedly
knew the score well in advance.

1t. Col. Ida w. Danielson, an
Army nurse who has ignored many
a stare during her career. has
turned the tables and is asking
men how she looks in her new
uniform.
Col. Danielson. chief nurse at
Walter Reed Hospital, is one of
80 Army women who are testing
new pinkish-gray uniform which,
it was learned. will probably be
adopted soon for all Army women
officers and enlisted personnel.
This includes WACs. nurses, doc
tors and members of the Women's
Medical Specialist Corps.
II walked into the bank on the
post the other day." explained the
colonel. "and every one stared. So
I asked them what they thought
Of the uniform. Some of the SOL
diers said they thought it looked
too unmilitary. But most of the
people I've talked to like it."

The uniform, designed by Hattie
Carnegie, does away with the
masculine shirt and tie now worn
by Army women. Instead. there

present open-front-with-tie ar
rangement. The buttons are
smaller. and there are five of them
instead of four.
"You don't have to wear a
blouse with the new jacket" the
colonel explained. LAS matter of
fact. I didn't wear one today. But
on warm days you can wear the
blouse without the jacket.
1.-The Military District OF Wash
ington, I understand, has issued
the uniforms to 80 women of diff
ferent sizes and shapes. I under
stand they're trying to perfect the
fit.
But these pockets" she said as
she managed to thrust in three
fingers. "are too small to be of
any use"
Includes Eisenhower Jacket
The new wardrobe also in
cludes a ble-breasted broad
cloth overcoat and an Eisenhower
jacket, both the same color as the
skirt and jacket. For summer
wear, there's a two-piece white
uniform of the same design as the
winter one and a one-piece pink
ish tan cotton dress.
An Army spokesman said the
uniforms probably will be approved
this spring. The uniforms for
officers and enlisted women are
the same.
II just hope they settle on
something" said Col. Danielson.
"At the beginning Of World War
II, we wore a two-tene blue outfit.
|It was dropped because 1t picked
|up too much lint and the colors
were hard to match. Then, in 1943,
we went into khaki
The new outfit includes an over
seas cap and one with a visor, The
latter looks like Red Cross won-
ans, cap. Brown shoes and hand
bags are worn with the new uni
form.
"I think the women will like
them" said the colonel. because
they are more feminine.
