ALLEGATIONS IN LORDS I - z ■ MOVE TO CAPTURE 8.8. C. I ■ 111 ' AUSTRIAN COUP AS MODEL UNCONSTITUTIONAL PARTY By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. Rec. 7.15 pun. London, Nov. 9. During the committee stage of consideration of the Incitement to Disaffection Bill in the House of Lords Lord Allen said it recently came to his knowledge from a source he had no reason to doubt that there was some kind of movement afoot in ' Britain to seize the British Broadcasting Corporation’s headquarters and bring about a coup d’etat similar to that prepared at Vienna. When interviewed by the Daily Herald, Lord Allen refused to say whether the plan came from the Right or the Left, but he said it was seriously discussed by one of the parties which believed in unconstitutional action. He did not think the plans had progressed beyond the contemplation stage. The House of Lords was nearly 12 hours discussing the Incitement to Disaffection Bill. There were numerous divisions on Socialists’ amendments, all of which were defeated. The committee stage was completed at 4.12 a.m.
