Forbes, 92-Year-Old Aunt Of President, Dies Frederick A. Delano With His Sister at Their Family Estate By the Associated Press. BAI.MVILLE, N. Y„ July 22.— Funeral services will be conducted today for Mrs. Dora Delano Forbes, 92, aunt of President Roosevelt, with burial tomorrow in Fair Haven, Mass. With Mrs. Forbes when she died yesterday were her two sisters, Mrs. James Roosevelt, mother of the President, and Mrs. Price Collier, Tuxedo Park, N. Y., and her brother, Frederic A. Delano, National Re sources Planning Board chairman. Mrs. Forbes had returned from her Paris residence on November 15, arriving on the liner Manhat tan. Born in Northampton, Mass., in 1847, Mrs. Forbes was the third of 11 children of Warren and Catherine Robbins Lyman Delano. She was a member of the family which had been founded in this country by Phillippe de la Noye, a Huguenot and a native of Holland, who landed at Plymouth in 1621 as one of 35 passengers on the ship Fortune. Family Followed Sea. De la Noye settled at Duxbury, Mass., later altering his name to Philip Delano. Six American vil lages and a town in Canada and one in Flanders have been named for the Delano family. Mrs. Forbes' maternal ancestors included officers who fought in Queen Anne's and the Revolution ary Wars; Richard Lyman, a founder of Hartford, Conn.; the Rev. Nathaniel Robbins, member of the Massachusetts convention which ratified the Constitution, and her grandfather. Judge Joseph Lyman of Northampton. Her family followed the sea for generations and was closely identi fied with the period when Amer ican vessels became known over the oceans of the world. Mrs. Forbes' father had a fleet of clipper ships operating to China and the west coast of Africa, and became head of Russell <fc Co., largest mercantile and tea house in China. Mr. Delano purchased Algonac, on the west bank of the Hudson, across from the Roosevelt home at Hyde Park, after his marriage. With the panic of 1857, Mr. Delano went to China to rebuild his fortune. In 1862, Mrs. Forbes, then 15, made her first ocean voyage, sailing with her mother and sisters and brothers aboard the square-rigged ship Sur prise to Hong Kong. Eight-year-old Sara Delano, mother of President Roosevelt, kept a diary of the ad venturous trip. Wanted to Fly to China. Since that first trip Mrs. Forbes had hade 10 voyages to China from Paris and the United States and in numerable trans-Atlantic crossings. In later years, the President's aunt ’ had expressed the wish to fly to 1 China with the advent of the air clippers, but her advanced age made ; this inadvisable. During the sojourn of the Delano family in Hong Kong, Frederick A. Delano was born. After four years. , the family returned home, stopping for a year each in Germany and Paris.. It was in Paris, in 1867, that Dora Delano was married to William Howell Forbes, a junior member of Russell & Co., whom she had met in China. Mr. and Mrs. Forbes re turned to China, where they lived for nearly a quarter of a century. Later they went to Paris to live. Mr. Forbes died in 1896 while he and his wife were visiting at Al gonac.

CHICAGO, July 22.—Mrs. Helen Hunt West of Jacksonville, Fla.; an active worker in the Democratic Party and publicity chief of the National Woman’s Party, said yes terday she would support Wendell L. Willkie, the Republican Presi dential candidate, because she could not conscientiously vote for a third term. Emphasizing she spoke only for herself and not for the Woman's Party, she also said that the Demo cratic party’s failure to adopt an equal rights for women plank in its platform, as did the Republicans, was “a matter of great disappoint ment to millions of women through out the country.” One of the aims of the Woman’s Party is to obtain a vote by the States on an equal rights amend ment to the Constitution.
