the case.
j A member of ex-Kmpress Zita's

that th"se jewels should not be

belonging to t he late Km pern
jCarl. Those were dissipated, this
i court official said, by jewel sharks
'who bold Iheiii fur less than their
real value and squandered the
proceeds, leaving Zila and her
eight minor children destitute.
The jewels reported to have
been found in A frica were those

j t he crown of St. Stephen, which
the late KmpresH Maria Theresa

will be constructed in I.ondo.i,
where all fruits sent from the
