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.
