He believed himself to be the
John the Baptist of the anti-
Christ.
“Hitler’s sacred mission was
to lead the Germans to a mas
ter age based on the Aryan
society,” he said.
Salzman also said that the
“Nazi consciousness” was in
fluenced by American in
teraction during World War
II.
“Ford Motor Company
built the trucks that carried
Nazi soldiers, and Standard
Oil refined the petroleum
products, and the Chase Man
hattan Bank paid interest on
the gold fillings taken from
the mouths of dead Jews,”
Salzman said. “Allen Dulles,
the founder of the CIA, rep
resented the Nazis w ith his law
firm in finanacial transactions
during World War II.”
He said that if the United
States is not sensitive to free
dom, Americans again could
become susceptible to “Nazi
consciousness.”
Salzman said that Sunday
was also the 50th anniversary
of the first broadcast of the
Lone Ranger radio show on
WXYZ.
“Is it coincidence or is it
mystic that the Lone Ranger, a
good force, should become
real for children and adults
everywhere on the very day
Hitler, a bad force, should be
come so terribly real, too?”
Salzman asked.
x-CIA agent Wilson
illegedly formed hit list
United Press International
lOUSTON — The weapons
iggling trial of former CIA
nt Edwin Wilson has in-
■ Ed tales of international
i. ispiracy to an alleged hit list.
the former spy contends his
■ Kctions with Libya were on
ialf of the U.S. government.
'to by David Wilson, 54, a career spy-
hed-tnternational-
iinessman. is accused of ship-
their Hfl 42,300 pounds of highly
[, u t isitive explosives called C-4 tc
the 4Kl orists * n Tripoli, Libya. The
(ty-like material, which would
^ievplode on impact, needed a
ionator or heavy duty blasting
) for explosion.
n Wilson, however, maintains
was working for the federal
verment at the time, feeding
jpecret information to the
k. Federal officials deny Wil-
feas working for them.
Testimony in the trial, which
expected to last more than a
ek, was to continue today.
John Heath, a former em-
id Dun® 1
iyee of Wilson, told jurors
Saturday that his ex-boss
threatened to kill both him and
federal prosecutor Larry Bar-
cella if he returned from Libya
to testify in the trial.
“He (Wilson) told me he could
not advise me because it would
be an obstruction of justice,”
Heath said. “But he said if I
talked to Barcella, he was dead
and so was I.”
Another prosecutor and four
other witnesses were were
named on a hit list allegedly
handwritten by Wilson from his
New York jail cell last month.
Heath, who spent 21 years in
the military as a bomb specialist,
claims he went to work for Wil
son in 1976. He said he stopped
working for Wilson two weeks
a g°-
He described an incident in
which he was ordered by Wilson
to hand deliver two buckets of a
highly explosive putty-like sub
stance to the Libyan embassy in
London. The containers were
smuggled from Libya through
Rotterdam and into London.

Call response investigated
United Press International
DALLAS — Relatives of a
woman whose body was found
by officers who took 31 minutes
to answer her call for help say
they will ask for further investi
gation of the incident.
Police Saturday were seeking
a 22-year-old man on a murder
warrant in the death of Jac
queline Patrick, 29, a former
Dallas schoolteacher. A second
man, believed to be an accom
plice, was arrested Friday.
Police Chief Billy Prince Fri
day said no procedural errors
were made in their response to
the victim’s call. The dispatcher
waited 14 minutes to send help,
directing patrol units to three
other nearby incidents — one a
dispute over a bill at a shopping
center — before sending them
to the victim’s south Dallas
house.
The woman’s body was found
by officers Thursday afternoon,
more than half an hour after she
told a dispatcher that prowlers
were outside her home. She had
been stabbed repeatedly in the
chest and her house was ran
sacked.
Prince, who listened to a tape
of the victim’s call to police, said
she did not sound upset.
“She was very calm and had a
conversational tone of voice. She
was not excited and she was not
frantic,” he said.
According to the tape, Pat
rick, in a calm voice, said: “I
want to report some prowlers
around my house.”
The clerk asked how many
and Patrick replied: “I can’t
judge. I don’t want to go to the
window. First, somebody came
knocking at my door two or
three or four different times to
day. They don’t think I’m home
because my car’s gone I can hear
them at the back now.”
The chief said an internal in
vestigation into the delay is con
tinuing, but no changes were ex
pected in the department’s dis
patching procedures.
Donna Patrick, 23, the vic
tim’s sister, said the Patrick fami
ly will demand further investiga
tion.
“We’re bitter, angry, upset,
mad, because there’s no excuse
for it. They took three times as
long as they should have,” she
said.

He also described how Wilson
had requested him to make let
ter bombs, but he refused.
“It was against my moral prin
ciples. I indicated I definitely
did not want to do this,” Heath
said, explaining it is equally dan
gerous to build a letter bomb as
it is to open one.
“He said if you help me out
this one last time, buddy, I’ll
make it worth your while,”
Heath said. He also said Wilson
promised to “make me a millio-
nare like he did (former aide
Douglas) Schlacter.”
Wilson was convicted in Alex
andria, Va., in November of
smuggling arms to Libya and
was sentenced to 15 years in
prison and fined $200,000. He
faces a 17-year sentence and
$145,000 fine in this case.
Wilson, who worked for the
government between 1955 and
1970, still faces two more trials
in Washington on charges he
conspired to murder a Libyan
dissident and allegedly made
another illegal arms shipment.
