Carrying banners attacking everything American from Mr. Rockefeller to the detention of Sirhan Sirhan, murderer of Senator Robert Kennedy, the demonstrators marched through the city and passed the local headquarters of the bank. Strangely, the protestors waited until the last day of Mr. Rockefeller's visit to stage the demonstration.
