COMIC OPERA PLOT
PORTUGESE REVOLUTION COUP THAT WENT ASTRAY PREMATURE OPTIMISM SHOCK TO CONSPIRATORS By Telegraph—Press Assn.— Copyright. Rec. 8.30 p.m. Lisbon,. Sept. 11. Another of Portugal’s periodical comic opera revolutions has been foiled. A strange mixture of Republicans, Fascists, Communists and others with army officers planned a revolt to begin at 6 a.m. on Tuesday, but the conspirators were unable to agree about the Cabinet posts or who should be Premier. In the meantime the Government discovered the plot. An officer and a civilian were arrested when they called on President Carmona to ask him to accept the revolution as a fact and an expression of the people’s will.
