Interesting details concerning the plans of the Hitlerites in the attempted coup d’etat in 1923 were disclosed today at a meeting of an investigation committee of the Bavarian Diet.
Representative Hoegnes who reported on the subject disclosed that the Hitlerites made extensive preparations for the confiscation of all property belonging to Jews. They even had arrested fifty-four prominent Jews as hostages. He added that not all of the documents which could throw light on the subject could be recovered and urged the Diet to ask for their delivery by the courts.
