John Edward Jones (10 December 1905 – 30 May 1970), known as J. E. Jones, was a Welsh political organiser. Born in near Corwen in Denbighshire, Jones studied at Bala Grammar School and the University College of Wales, Bangor. There, he was elected leader of the Students' union, and conducted a successful campaign to have Welsh made an official language there, alongside English. While campaigning in the 1970 general election, Jones was killed in a car accident.
