RIO DE JANEIRO, <>P> —The
independent newspaper Diario de
Noticias said Saturday military
authorities had arrested aboo* 30
army sergeants and charged tnem
with “organizing a military plot”
to restore former President C.
lio Vargas to power.
The newspaper quoted “author
itative sources” as confirming the
existence of a plot. Another news
paper told a reporter last night it
had a similar story but was v ih -
holding publication for lack of
authoritative confirmation.
Gen. Zenobio da Costa, one of
the commanders of the Brazilian
Expeditionary forces in the Pat
ian campaign, in a speech Friday
made what Diario de Noticias
called a "veiled reference” to such
a plot.
“Our country is living in one
of the most critical moments in it.
history,” da Costa told some of
his military colleagues. “Unfor
tunately there are some false Bra
zilians who arc betraying the
motherland and trying to suffo
cate it with the blood of theii
brothers.”
