Civilian Texans aid Central America Associated Press DALLAS — From warehouses in Addison to humble Fort Worth neighborhoods, Texans are pouring thousands of dollars into the fight to overthrow the Sandinista govern ment in Nicaragua. William Murray ships food, medi cal supplies, clothing and Christmas packages to the Contras from a warehouse in Addison. Lanny Duyck of Garland sold his home and BMW to maintain the small hospital he set up in Honduras to aid Nicaraguan refugees. Gary Bennett of Fort Worth spent $14,000 of his own money in Hon duras last year. He said he plans to continue going back to Honduras as long as he can raise money. Capt. O.L. “Pappy” Hicks of Troup, president of the Civilian-Mil itary Assistance of Texas, says there are limits to what he can do for the Contras. “We do not train groups to go down there — that’s against the law. We do not deal in arms and ammu nition — that’s against the law. We are not a wild-eyed, right-wing radi cal bunch,” Hicks, a retired par atrooper, told Dallas Life Magazine, a Sunday supplement to The Dallas Morning News. Many U.S. citizens became inter ested in helping when Congress stopped aid to the Contras in 1984, Murray said. Non-military aid re sumed a few months ago. Murray maintains that if commu nism is not stopped in Nicaragua, it will spread to Mexico and millions of refugees will dee across the Rio Grande. Although there is no reliable esti mate on exactly how much Contra aid has come from Texas, the high level of support in the state is one reason the World Anti-Communist League, with chapters in 98 coun tries, held its annual conference in Dallas last September, Dallas Life Magazine reported. “I don’t think there is a conserva tive organization in Dallas that is not involved,” Murray said, adding that help from Dallas Republican clubs and members of area churches en abled him to take about $400,000 in medical supplies to Honduras last year. Bennett said he has also received help from different types of people. “Most of them are just individual people,” he said. “I’ve got everything from heavy beer-drinkers to militant people ... to pastors. It’s just a spec trum.” With a “couple hundred” mem bers in Texas, Hicks estimates his group has so far been able to raise about $300,000 in medical supplies, clothes and donations. Hicks said the CMA of Texas has directed its efforts toward aiding Miskito Indians and English-speak ing Creoles who have been fighting the Sandinistas.
