GERMAN ROYALTY
IDENTIFIES GEMS
Witness At Durant Trial
Saws Defendant Offered
True Story

FRANKFURT, Germany, Aug. &c
-ReA prosecution witness testi-
fled Monday that WAC Captain
Kathleen Nash Durant had offered
to tell "the entire truth about the
81, 500, 900 Kronberg jewel theft, and
two members of German royalty
identified part of the glittering
gems as their family heirlooms.
Leonardo Keller, noted Chicago
! c~riminologist and inventor of the
lie detector machine, told a mill
tary court that the accused made
the offer after she had been sub
jected to the polygraph device.
Keeler's testimony came after
gray-haired, sun-tanned Prince Au-
gust Wilhelm Of Prussia, a son of
the late German Kaiser, had identi-
fled dazzling cufflinks and tie-pins
as personal gifts Of now-fallen
crowned heads of Europe.
Nazi Party Members
It followed also a court ruling
that defense counsel could not ques-
ton the personal trustworthiness
of German royalty because of ad-
mitted membership in the Nazi par
ty. Prince August Wilhelm said he
had been a member.
The Chicago criminologist said
he asked the ~43-year-old defendant
when she was brought to him last
June by Army officers a dozen or
so questions about jewel thefts and
castles such as the old Hesse castle
at K%ronberg. Then he told her the
results.
t'She said to me then, what will
happen to me if I tell the entire
truth about the gem thefts? I told
her I "a in nc position to say and
then she said: I think I had better
tell the entire truth. Keller testi-
fled.
Challenge Testimony
Defense attorneys challenged the
lie detector testimony and none was
introduced.
The royal houses of Hesse and
Hohenrollern contributed witnesses
to the prosecution case against
Mrs. Durant-charged with grand
larceny and embezzlement of the
jewel collection from the castle
where she served as manager OF
an officers club after Germany's
defeat.
