After anti-revolution leaflets rain on Havana from the air, and terrorist raids wound 45, killing 2, he takes to the air for a 5 hour broadcast, denouncing the United States for harboring his foes, and summoning a rally of one million peasants. Crowds outdoors. Papers blow along streets. Injured man being attended in hospital bed. Massive rally with huge crowds, banners, flag. Castro in TV studio, talking at microphones, and of course gesturing.
