GIGANTIC SPANISH
/. COUP PLOT Fooled
PIotters Quarrel, Scheme
Goes AMy-Sensatlonal
Details Are Revealed.

~ the Associated Press.
LONDON, October 21.--A European
resident in Portugal yesterday brought
to London details Of sensational but
abortive plot to overthrow the POrtu-
RIIese dictatorship and the Spanish
monarchy in a giant all-Iberian coup
early in october.
The informant, who has had excep-
tional opportunity to observe the facts
said that, although the Portuguese gov
ernment took extreme measures 70
counter the plot and Lisbon became an
armed camp, nothing of the situation
was allowed to appear In the press OF
to be telegraphed abroad:
It was stated that, while the plot was
not carried out as planned, Portugal u
seething politically, and sooner or later
the nation will be confronted with Sc
rious DEVELOPMENTS. The informant
says also that the dictatorship OF Presi-
dent General Carmona at the moment
appears to be In . very difncult position.
Coup Fails to MateriaIIze.
The plot did not matsrialize. 1t is
stated, because OF q quarrel among the
plotters themselves as to whether Lis
bon was to be turned over for three
DAYS to mob rule. under which heads
Oh the olCtdVOISilp NuuAu VIC dtnA1 VIVA
summarily. Less radical plotter6 de-
clined to agree to this, and the coup
did not materialize.
The plot was expected to be carried
out about october 6 and TO be made In
conjunction with a Republican upris-
ing In Spain Republican agitation in
various Spanish cities did actually
reach o high point about that time,
but did not attain the proportions
necessary to overthrow the monarchy.
The government is said to possess evil
dence that O section of the army made
q pact with the so-called old parties
Of Republicans, Democrats, Socialists
and Communists, who offered to put q
force of 5000 armed citizens in the
field to cooperate with that part Of the
regular army which was to revolt.
Censorship Prevents News Leakage.
On October 6 government troops oc-
cupied all the key positions In Lisbon
and the ministries and other public
buildings were picketed. Heavy ar
tillery was brought into the capital,
the Casino was closed and all roads
were cleared Of trafic to permit pas
sage of artillery.
All motorists were searched for arms
and q number Of suspects were arrested.
A censorship was clamped en- and
nothing was allowed to leak out re-
garding the projected coup.
The informant declared that despite
appearances Of outward tranquility the
dictatorship is faced with great din
culties. Trade Is bad and there are
no end Of bankruptcies. Even some Of
the larger firms are gong out Of busi-
ness. Fl
There Is unemployment In all
branches Of trade and industry, and the
Informant said he was convinced the
nation would be faced with . very
serious situation in the near future.

The question is not one of money
either. 1t is problem of red tape.
The city council is eager to go

that they can find a legal gap in

KNOCK ON WOOD?

ECLIPSES of the sun are still
rare enough so that most of
the population took Monday morn
ing off to strain their necks and
ruin their eyesight peering thru
scraps of smoked glass at the ce-
lestial phenomenon going on.
Two thousand years ago a SINH
lar occurance threw the watchers
into a frenzied panic. The end of
the world was the least awesome
thing foreshadowed by this terrible
event in the minds of the people.
Among illiterate tribes today an
eclipse is still miracle, denoting
the wrath of the gods. The coldly
calculating light of science has re-
vealed to us many supernatural"
things as simple functions follow
ing natural laws. Rational explain
alton of marvels has freed us from
the elaborate systems of taboos
