sources for teaching in the new
classrooms. Both" he said, "sug-

busy market places, smashing
windows. burning buses and
clashing with police. Two strik-

and two officers were injured by
stones hurled by rioters.
Fourteen persons were treated
for injuries suffered in outbreaks
of violence at Callao.
