RenJIrOW does Uhe continuity Tor
the new comic page feature-invents
adventures for his Marine charact srs
and supplies the words for the bal
looms" which represent their conver-
sation. He lives with his young wife
and books in a pleasant little house
at 1349 @ street southeast, adorned
with pictures by his friend and COL
laborator, Dickson.
Dickson, who lives in Worcester,
Mass, Is a commercial artist. He
comes to Washington every now and
then for detail with the Marine Corps,
doing Illustrations, principally of old
uniforms, for the corps official rec
ords. He works IN variety of media
and has illustrated Rentfrow's articles
and fiction for eight years. Besides
being an illustrator of unusual talent,
Dickson Is a crack rife shot He has
two legs on Distinguished Rineman
award and was to have gone to the
last national rife matches at Camp
Perry, Ohio, but was prevented by
work on the strip.
The idea OF doing daily adventure
strip built around the United States
Marines occurred to Sergt. Rentfrow,
he said, when hs noticed "a glaring
technical error" IN some pictorial
newspaper feature
"Stony's" Name From Real Life.
"I thought Of Dickson's application
to detail and Of our familiarity with
the technical side of Marine uniforms
and Marine service and knew We
could turn out a strip which would
be 1awless in this respect" Rentfrow
said.
Besides. there is scarcely any limi-
tation to the actual adventures which
Marines can and do have, so there is
nc limit to their fictional adventures. y

by George E. Keneipp, manager of
the Keystone Automobile Club, in
an address last night at a mass
meeting Of motorists and oil men
in the American Security and
Trust Co. branch building at

Only about two.thirds Of the

years has actually been spent for

Keneipp said, and pointed out
that only five States have diverted
as high a percentage Of motor

Factory managers and in

The country must go back to "a

i Quick relief from the maddening
itch of eczema, psoriasis, poison
ivy, and irritation about the rectum
or personal parts is obtained by ap.
plying an ointment called Resinol.
Leave it on over night. It lessons
the desire to scratch, and eases the
Irritation.
The soothing effect Of Resinol
takes the sting out of the irritated
parts and makes you comfortable.
The skin heals sooner, too, with the
help Of Resinol.
The oily base Of Resinol Oint-
Iment is ideal for penetrating the
outer layers of the skin and secur-
ing deeper action. Bathing the af-
fected parts first with Resinol Soap
lhastens the effectiveness Of Resinol

CAUTIONS
ARMS RACES
SPELL DOOM

NEW YORK, April 6 G.N.S.)
That the present world armament
race can lead only to a military
explosion or an economic collapse
was the warning sounded today
by Secretary of State Cordell Hull
on the twentieth anniversary OF
Americas entry into the World
War.
Speaking last night at the din.
ner Of the Woodrow Wilson
Foundation, where he was awarded
the organizations medal, Hull
made plea for embattled nations
to abandon their warlike prepara-
tions and liberalize their economic
policies. He warned:
There is only one way to
avert this impending doom. 1t
is for the nations which today
bend their major effort toward
preparation for war to join
those other nations which are
intent on q policy of peace"
COOPERATION NEEDED
The pressing need, Hull said, was
to rebuild international political
and economic relations on a basis
Of cooperation"
Though the Secretary mentioned
no specific nation, observers said
that he had Germany, Italy and
Japan in mind when he said:
1--WE have witnessed the spec
tacle of some nations, already
in the thrOes of economic pow
erty, straining their meager re-
sources for the creation of un-
precedented armaments.
I'VE have seen other nations
drawn into the suicidal race. The
construction of arms on so vast
. scale gives the impression of
intensive economic activity. But
that activity is like the un.
healthy flush Of fever.
"It destroys rather than
builds. 1t sOws the seeds of dis
aSter."
WAR OF PROTECTIONISM
Hull said recent years had wit
messed IAN alarming deterioration
of international relationships"
International law, he declared,
had been preached and flouted."
Current commercial enmities
were traced by Hull to the war
after the war;" fought with tariffs
and embargoes, which he said
broke out on the economic front
after the peace of Versailles.
In 1925 a liberalizing force, Hull
said, was "all too soon over
whelmed by new and sharp re-
versal of trend, to which o1r coun-
try unfortunately made the largest
single contribution"
He declared:
''It served as a signal which
unIeaShed the forces of extreme
prOtectiOnism all over the world.
Personally, am convinced that
it was the most important single
cause Of the great depression"
Hull said the reciprocal trade
act of 1884 marked the return Of
the United States to sane and
constructive policies"
