By Radio to The St VIENNA, Austria, November 18.—To the picturesque adventures of Cha | & Levine, now languishing in jail her on suspicion of being involved in coun- terfeiting, was added today the element of romance. The afternoon newspapers report that Mr. Levine's woman com- panion is the so-called “diamond queen,” Mabel Boll. Whether this is her real | identity the police so far have refused | to say, as they take the attitude that the woman §s not implicated in he al- il counerfeiting plan. Levine is the same Charles A. Levine who backed and accompanied | Oiarence’ D. Chamberlain_on a trans 1 fiight in 1927, Vienna police . He was arrested vesterdav as about to leave Semmering for | Venice and charged with conspiring | with & Vienna engraver to counterfeit French_coins. Mr. Levine himself claims that the dles he sought to obtain from an ex- pert Vienna engraver were to be used not for coins, but for counters which | he wished to use in a new -French |easino. He declares that he is the vic- tim of a plot. His lawyer, Herr Korez, told mews- pondents that the arrest | that Mr. Levine was| hough to attempt to S tement under Cross- examination by Vienna's crim'nal po- Jice commissioner, Hofrat Wahl, the writer was informed, flatly contradicted | those of the Vienna engraver with | whom he is supposed to have worked. The engraver was released after giving sworn test'mony that Mr. Levine, -mrl many weeks of indirect negotiations concerning various kinds of medallions, ordered dies which could be used for French francs, but that he, not wishing to commit a crime, submitted specimen coins to the national mint and refused | further co-operation as soon as he dis- | | covered the actual nature of his work | Mr. Levine claimed that he gave the francs to the engraver only as samples to illustrate the size of the medallions for which he wished the dies, so that, | due to the cheapness of copper in Amer- | understood Levine very well and that books on forestry, 1ca, he could begin to issue round, coin- shaped visiti ing cards, on one 'h would be the likeness of the person who ordered such cards. From another Vienna firm Mr. Levine rding to the police, 100,- 000 gambling counters bearing the let- ters “CD" on one side and on the other numerals from 5 to 1,000—these may or may not be duplicates of the Deau- ville Casino counters. The Austrian police are in contact with French as well as American police. Concerning his intended use of the counters, Mr. Levine made statements about a friend in America who asked him to ascertain the prices of this kind | of work in Vienna, but claimed that he has not yet actual : LEVINE OFFERS DEFENSE. | Declares He Was Misunderstood by Vienna Engraver. VIENNA, November 18 (#).—Charles A. Levine, being held here on suspicion of intentiof of forgery, vigorously de- fended himself before the Vienna Police_Court today. The police president had said that Levine had given orders to a Vienna en- graver for metal dies and matrices to enable him to coin certain French franc pleces as issued by the French Cham- ber of Commerce. Levine protested that he was badly | understood by the engravers: that what | {he really wanted were dies from which | he could cast medals for distinguished airmen. The engraver maintained that he his meaning was unmistakable. Levine also asserted that he wanted the dies only for his and his wife's portraits. Meanwhile the Austrian police ha wired the Fnch police to send & cos mission - to_Vienna to_study the evi- dence and to lnmug-te further.
