It was alleged that the youth entered the German Embassy and asked to see one of the Secretaries, saying that he had an important document to submit to him.
Grynszpan was ushered into Herr von Rath's office and handed a document to him.
TWO SHOTS
As Herr von Rath was examining it, the youth shouted: "I want to take revenge on you for the suffer- ing your countrymen have caused my fellow Jews," and drew a re- volver and fired two shots.
Grynszpan attempted to es- cape from the Embassy but was overpowered by several mem- bers of the staff and handed over to the police on guard outside the Embassy.

MILD COMMENT
Berlin, To-day. While the attempt on the life of Herr von Rath in Paris has created great indignation in Nazi Party circles, press comments hitherto are relatively mild.
The ・ opportunity is sought to justify Germany's expulsion of the Jews, but only the newspaper "Nachtausgabė" front pages the assassination attempt.
One commentator declared: "The attack is only a confirmation of the anarchistic tendencies which we established in the case of many Jewa."
INCREASE PROBLEM
He recalls the murder of the Nazi leader, Gustloff, in February, 1986, and the attack on two Ger- mans in Antwerp, and says that such attacks only tend to increase the "Jewish problem.",
The "Nachtausgabe" says: "Against: such attacks and against the Jewish rabble, the only effective weapon is the expulsion of all such suspicious and unclean elements."
