She has other hobbies, too, but this is the one in which she is most interested. When Miss Coci talks about crosses, she is ready (or a lengthy conversation that will extend irom the early ages, through the Byzantine and other periods down to modern ages. Although still young, Miss Coci already has a remarkable collection to which she continually endcu.urs to add. One of the crosses in her collection was given to Miss Coci by her father, who was a jeweler, before he died.

It is a beautiful piece of craftsmanship. Included are some old gold and silver filigree crosses collected in antique shops. In one of the crosses is found inserted a number of relics. This cross was given her by the internationally known folk song singer, Louise Arnoux, who found the cross in an old Burgundy town in France. Miss Coci has over 100 different crosses and is constantly on the search tsr more.

"Hap" Hazard can be a harsh enough dictator OVER IN SPAIN, Gen. Francisco Franco laying down the law as dictators donas ruled that all citizens must pay a tax of two weeks service to the government, either in work or wages.

To Americans this may seem a rather strenuous demand upon the income of a people who are none too rich. Yet, over here. Gen. "Hap" Hazard who seems to be constantly injecting haphazard principles into tax laws affecting motorists has been able to enforce the same demand on the 30 million citizens who have automobiles. Statistics show that American motorists average $2 a week income, pay an average above $50 a year in taxes.

Figures may lie occasionally, but in this case it seems to nuke no difference what agency gathers them they always come out the same. Total tax bill this year: nearly two weeks work for a fourth of the nation This is situation unlikely to change for the better until everybody realizes that the average motorist if not a rich man in a big shiny automobile, but very ordinary chap in a modest car. Only then will it be assumed that a penny tax means penny earned by someone who could use it otherwise.
