COUP PLANNED
SENSATIONAL STATEMENT BY LORD ALLEN United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright (Received November 9, 7.15 p.m.) LONDON, November 9. During the Committee stage in the House of Lords, when consideration was given the incitement to Disaffection Bill, Lord Allen said that recently it 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 8.8. C. and bring about a coup d’etat, similar to the one prepared in Vienna. Interviewed by “The Daily Herald” Lord Allen refused to say whether the plan came from the Right or the Left, but said that it was seriously discussed by one of the parties which believed in unconstitutional action. He did not think that the plans had progressed beyond the contemplation stage.
