He served as prosecuting attorney of <a href="/wiki/Allen_County,_Ohio" title="Allen County, Ohio">Allen County, Ohio</a>, from 1935 to 1939. </p><p>Jones was elected in 1938 as a Republican to the <a href="/wiki/76th_United_States_Congress" title="76th United States Congress">Seventy-sixth</a> and to the four succeeding Congresses. Jones was against isolationism and campaigned in favor of helping Britain throughout 1940. In between July 25 of 1940 when France surrendered, and June 22 of 1941 when the Nazis invaded the Soviet Union, Britain was effectively alone. During this time Jones, as well as his fellow Ohio congressmen Charles H. Elston and William E. Hess campaigned heavily in favor of giving Britain any aid we could. Jones explicitly advocated entering the war on the British side throughout this time period. He served until his resignation on September 2, 1947.
