All France Hears Shots
Paul Collette, 29, who fired the shots, was reported by German sources to be a de Gauilist who had joined the “French Legion” against Russia with the intention of shooting whatever prominent collaborationists who attended the mobilization ceremony. A record of the ceremonies at which Laval was shot was played on the broadcast carrying to all of France the six shots fired by the assassin. : A Paris dispatch said that Mme. Fernand de Brinon, wife of the chief Vichy envoy to German Occupation forces, had suffered a fractured skull in a “bicycle accident” |—r_ in the Paris suburbs yesterday almost at the same time as the LavalDeat shooting, and was ih serious condition.

Several Republicans supporting Mr. Capehart are opposed to the new leadership, which they contend includes Robert Lyons, lobbyist and former Klan official, and Burrell Wright, attorney and former State committee treasurer.
Although he resides in Indianapolis, Mr. Capehart owns farms in Daviess County. He told last night's meeting “I don’t want anything out of politics for myself, but I want to beat the New Deal because I oppose its principles. At first I didn't want to wage any campaign, but I will now wage a crusade because the two-man rule of Buzan and Emison is too much like the New Deal. We must rise to crush any such dictatorship in the county, district, the State or anyhere else. “When precinct workers wage a campaign they are entitled to some of the say in what shall be done.”

Wounded Three Times
Marshall Henri Philippe Petain, 85-year-old chief of state, received constant reports from Paris of the condition of Laval and Deat and measures being taken to intensify the Vichy-German drive against all enemies of his regime. The aged Marshal heard the news of the assassination attempt last night while attending a special rendition in his honor of the first act of the opera “Faust,” in which the aging Faust makes a compact with the Devil. Vice Premier Jean Francois Darlan heard the news at his estate at Nerac, where he had gone to receive the Marshal in a visit set for tomorrow. Laval was wounded three times. One bullet grazed his right arm. A | second penetrated his arm. A third entered his right side above the liver and was embedded about one inch beneath the heart. After a 40minute emergency operation last night, surgeons decided to leave that bullet in Laval for the time being.
Like Clemenceaun’s Wound
Count Rene de Chambrun, Laval’s son-in-law, told the United Press by telephone from Laval’s hospital that Laval’s wound was very similar to that which “Tiger” Georges Clemenceau, victory premier of the World War, received during the 1919 peace conference when Emile Cotinn shot him. Clemenceau was then 78 and recovered. Laval never lost consciousness. Holding his side, he walked to an automobile. On his way he saw angry members of the “Legion” drag Collette from under a porch where he had sought refuge. “Kill him! Kill him!” the Legionnaires shouted. Laval called to them: “Don’t kill him!” At the hospital Laval at once telephoned his wife, at his Chateldon castle near Vichy, assured her he was all right, and ordered a motor car to take her and their daughter, the Countess Jose de Chambrun, to Paris. They left shortly after midnight, driving all night to reach Laval's bedside at breakfast time. Laval smiled and joked with all who talked to him last night.
