FAILS IN ATTEMPT
 AT ASSASSINATION
Japanese Youth Tries to Murder
 the Prince Regent
By The Associated Press,

By The Associated Press,
 To1io. Dee. 21.-A youth dressed as a laborcr was arrested by police today shortly after he had fired at Prince Regent HirOhito in an attempted as sassination. The youth is 20 years old. Police believe he is insane.
 His shooting aroused intense excite meut and feeling is running high throughout the city.
 The attack occurred while the Prince Regent was on his way to q session of the diet. The assailant used d "canc-guu in firing at the automo- bile. The windows of the machine were smashed. and the bullet narrow ly missed the head of the Prince Regent. fIo continued on his way to the meeting Of the diet, but took refuge in the upper house Of the diet, composed of peers. Later he convened the diet in ordinary session. with GUS tomary ceremonies after which he re- turned tu the imperial palace under heavy guard.
 Authorities are conducting a rigid investigation Of the attempt on the Prince Regents life. They are of the opinion that others may he implicated in a plot to assassinate Hirohito.
 The Prince Regent Hirohito has been in the public eye in Japan con siderably during recent months as result of his work in directing re- construction after the earthquake, and plans for his wedding, on Feb. 6, to Princess Masako kuni-No- Miya, which was sanctioned formally in June. 1922.
 Hirohito, eldest son of Emperor Yoshihito, was proclaimed crown prince iu 1912. and was appointed regent in November. 1921, on account of the illness Of in" emperor.
 Niscouut Tamrmori Iriyc, member ot tn, house of peers and chief cham berlAiu to thr Prince Regent who was accompanying him in the automobile, was slightly injured when he was cut by fragment of broken glass.
 When Hirohito appeared in tho up- Der house of the diet there was no indication apparent that anything un- toward had occurred. The Prince Regent read a speech to the members of the house in a calm voice and then retired.
 Visitors at the session were not al l lowed to leave the building until the Regent had departed on his way back 1 to the imperial palace. None of those i present at the session which he ad- l dressed were aware of the shooting. l and when news Of the attempted as- l sassnaiion became known they eA- prt sssd tho highest admiration for the l manner in which he had conducted l himselt.
 Another youth, who was with the ssSailunt Of the Prince Regent was arrested later.
 Following the attack, if vas learned that the Prince Regent has been under heavy guard recently owing 10 rumors which have been in circulation that korrans were conspiring to assassin- ale him.
 owing to the almost unprecedented ! feeling. police have threatened to suppress newspapers publishing news Of thr inridrut mtil an official state m.nt has becu issued.
