CHICAGO. June 1.-THE beautifully
sculptured silver chalice of Antioch,
thought by some archeologists and bib
at the last supper. was placed on exhibit
with dedication yesterday of q Century
of Progress Hall Of Religions.
Only once before-when it was lent
to the Louvre in Paris-has the chalice
been taken out of strong box in New
York by its owner, Fahim Konchakji
art collector, who brought it to America
for safekeeping during the World War.
The chalice, unearthed In 1910 amid
ruins of ancient Antioch, Syria, was
identified as Christian art of the first
century by DR.. GustavuS A. Eisen, Sc,
noted Swedish archeologist, and con-
firmed by other archeologists, oriental
lists, art and biblical scholars.
Cup Has Two Parts
It stands 756 inches high and would
hold about two and half quarts of
liquid-the capacity to be expected, ac-
cording to DR.. Eisen, In Passover cup.
It has two parts.
The outer cup, which art students
credit to great artist who has given
posterity earliest portraits of Jesus and
his disciples yet found, Is Of silver,
coated by its early custodians with gold
for preservation.
The inner cup Is q plain crude silver
vessel-yet an object Of such sacredness
to those early people as to call for the
elaborate chalice.

While Chairman Summers (DD

9 QN.S0 0.-Despite his hard luck,

I started this skirt about the
time he started planning his
round-the-wo flight, and told
him I'd beat him, but it's no use.
1 sit down to do some earnest
knitting and the telephone rings.
If it isn't the telephone, it's
some reporter asking me some
question about myself or about
Jimmie. How can you do any
intensive knitting and pay atten-
ton to what reporters say?
IS Phone Calls a Day
For awhile 1 was getting along
fine. Jimmie hadn't taken off
and no one cared what I did or
where I was or what I might
happen to hear from him. Now
it is different story.
Why, yesterday, 1 received IS
telephone calls, few long dis
tance, posed for news pictures,
and did my best to look pretty for
the Newsreel cameramen.
I'm not vain and I'm not after
publicity, but if people are as in
terested as they try to make me
believe, I'm willing to tell what
1 know.
Jimmie and I went together for
about a year and half and then
we were married-that was six
years ago in Los Angeles. Jimmie
had a ship of his own at that
time, and he was doing quite a
lot of commercial and movie fly
ing. He has always had desire
to do some big flight.
I don't know how nor when he
became interested in flying. but it
seems to be the natural thing for
him to do. He is happy when he
is talking about flying-just like 1
am when 1 start telling someone
about my knitting.
He sold his plane in 1923 and
went to Detroit to do commercial
flying and that fall went to Texas.

British Cling to Hope
For Debt Compromise

LONDON, June 9 GN.SO.-
Powerful last minute efforts to
obtain concessions from the
United States with regard to the
debt payment falling due next
Thursday were launched by the
British government today.
Information reg arding the
measures was given to Interna-
tional News Service by an unlm-
peachable British authority. He
said:
"There is brick wall at the
present moment as regards June
Is, but there is still a little bit
of hope we can bulge America
and get some sort of cOmprO-
mise"
This same authority admitted
that communications were pour
ing from 10 Downing Street to
Sir Ronald Lindsay, British am
bassador to Washington.
U. S. Note to Britain
international News service C e
learned that the United States
has informed Great Britain in a
formal reply to queries regarding
the June IS instalment that the
President is without authority to
alter the foreign debts.
It was revealed that the note
pointed out that President Roose-
velt is authorized only to receive
the payment or receive a state
ment of any debtors intention,
which he will lay before Congress.
In view of this, Ambassador
Lindsay has been instructed to
see President Roosevelt again anG
to continue to press Britain'S
argument for postponement.
Cling To Hope
The British apparently refused
to abandon hope despite distinct
ly discouraging reports from
Washington and the open state
ment by Secretary of State Hull,
here for the World Economic Con-
ference, that he will not concern
himself with the debt question.
The Secretary of State parried
q question on whether he pro-
posed to attempt to raise silver
values in these words when he
faced a group of British and other
correspondents:
"It might be feasible to make
greater use of silver for sub
sidiary purposes"
He had no heSitancy, however,
in stating what he believed to be
the most important problem con.
fronting the conference. saying:
"The one primary object of
every delegate should be to
find a basis for bringing re-
cOvery throughout the world.
The international economic
structure is flat on its back"
Asked whether he thought the
conference should attempt to
stabilize currency levels before
attempting to deal with trade
values, Hull answered:
"BOth are cOOrdinated. If
YOU stabilized currencieS to-
morrow and left trade barriers,
It wouldn't amount to anything
because we would slip back to
where we are now in 30 days"
