He felt the Blair House a half hour after the shooting, through the rear entrance and under heavy guard, for the Arlington ceremony.

At Emergency hospital, James G. Copossela, hospital administrator, said the dead man had not been identified. He said the wounded man had been identified to him as Oscar Collazo of 173 Brook ave., New York. Copossela said the wounded man's condition was "fair."

Hear What San Francisco Think Pope Proclaims (Continue from Page 1) endous assembly, which reached from the Basilica doors to Castel Saint Angelo, three-fourths of a mile away. Speaking briefly in Italian after the "te deum," Pope Pius declared the world does not yet have peace, and he urged all men—the sick, refugees, the persecuted, those whose arms are without work and who have no roofs over their heads—to become sons of a single mother, Mary. The world, the Pope said, was divided by hate and conflict, and the light of love, based in Christ, was almost extinguished. He described Mary as a "monument to the only faith," and as "the unknown girl of Nazareth." At the conclusion he asked all to pray. Cardinals, archbishops, patriarchs, bishops and the tremendous strong folded to their knees as though a great wind were passing over the square. In a loud voice, the Pope then recited a prayer he had composed in honor of Mary: "We believe with all the fervor of our faith in your triumphant assumption, in soul and in body, into heaven, where you are acclaimed queen by all the choirs of the angels and all the legions of the Saints," he prayed.
