Open charges that Germany was financing Hungarian right-wing organizations were made today by Social Democratic deputies in the Municipal Council despite police assertions that they had no proof of the reported pro-Nazi putsch plan.

Petrovacs said that the rightist organizations were semi-military in character and were fully prepared to carry out a coup. the Havas News Agency reported.
