Rockefeller had to hold over a day in Paraguay because riotous students had made Montevideo, Uruguay's capital and his next scheduled stop, unsafe for a visit. There were a number of firebombings, most aimed against firms with U.S. interests, and terrorists set fire to a General Motors plant, causing damage estimated at $1,000,000. Thus the Governor flew to the resort town of Punta del Este, where Uruguayan officials felt that they could discuss their problems in safety...
