Death Asked For by Castro Foes in Anti Church Rally
JHAWANA UP I reports Jesus Soto of the CTC union federation called for execution of priests and foes of Premier Fidel Castro at a mass meeting before about 5 000 schoolchildren. Propaganda chief Jose M De La Aguilera denounced President Kennedy as an imbecile while student leader Rolando Cabela accused the United States of backing anti Castro terrorists. The gathering aimed to blame the Roman Catholic Church for Tuesday’s bombing of a private school in which a girl lost an eye and nine women were injured. The crowd shouted for “the wall for priests” and questioned why priests do not return to Spain, reflecting Castro’s claim that opposition is aided by priests from anti Communist Spain.
