These letters were addressed to five advertisers whose advertise- : ments appeared in "Takeover," a Madison underground news~ paver. These letters were signed SAO. They advised that this was a warming against them. The letters stated that the latest issue of "Takeover" lavished praise on the Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA) and has endorsed Marxist | terror. The letter stated that there would be a boycott by advertisers and that the addressees have no choice in i taking part. The letters warned that if advertisers failed to remove all of their advertising from the next issue of | “Takeover, '’ SAO would be left with no choice but to take ! ° action to insure that advertisements would never be placed | again. The letters warned that the advertisers had until pos the next issue to decide.

The advertisers receiving these letters were the Capitol and Majestic Theaters; Mid-West Hi-Fi; Cunique Billiards; and the Focal Point Co-op.

Sullivan said that because the late FBI director “could not be trusted” to keep the _ £1) e s confidential Sullive turned them over to Assistant Atty. Gen. Rebert Mardian be- fore Hoave: foreed Sullivan to retire from the FBI on Oct. 6, 1971. Sullivan, now director of the Justice Depa riment’s office of ‘national narcoties jntelligence, said Jehn N. Mitchell, who was attorney general at the time, orered that the files be given to Mardian. Acting FBI Director ‘Wil- Jiam B. Ruckelshaus “quoted Mardian as saving he trans- ferred the files after Sullivar warned that Hoover “might use the recerds in some man- ner” against President Nixon and Mitchell.

, CALIFORNIA PATRIOT FRE ED IN FBI FRAMEUP CASE Mr. George Ni. Hoover was a member of the now defunct tight-wing ‘Secret Army Organization.” Hoover, age 37 of Santee, California, was con- vic-ed last year of firing into the home of a Marxist radical - ” named Peter Bohmer of San 7s Diego. 7s . lt was later ‘admitted by the -.. . * pimp named Howard Berry mo . Godfrey had infiltrated the ‘ * Secret Army. He had driven the car from which the shots were fired. Therefore the California Fourth District . Court of Appeals ruled to over- - ‘turn Hoover's conviction. Judge William T. Low said the - jury should have been informed «+ that the sole witness testifying ‘against Hoover, and driver of Peer Cr ed federal prosecution that an FBI., were ee T a teal the car, was a paid FBI in- Nene Rees od former. Tt was also charged that the pimp, Haward Godfrey, was the chief “firebrand” in. the Secret Army and constantly encouraged violence, The FBI allowed Godfrey to participate in the shooting, several fire- bombings and burglaries before they arrested several others using Godfrey as their main witness against them. _ Godfrey was so convincing that he rose to: Assistant State Coordinator of The Secret Ar- my. Through acts of violence he was able to prove his “loyalty” to the organization.., The court deemed this an act of “entrapment.” The FBI pimp was ute provocateur of the acts of violence and his FBI superiors had the power to stop them before they occurred. RIGHT-WING VICTORY . . setee cee ners Bement cer This important case: represents an outstanding vice, tory for Patriots everywhere. The victory of George M. Hoover over this FBI frameer helps to expese how far govern: ment agents will go to wrecs + patriotic groups. The distur bing part of this is that the FS will iself b the law, wit: acts of violence, in order ¢ mancuver innocent patrioz into a trap, where they can ther be framed by lying paid pings testifying in court. ; 2ak oir in While this sort of! skullduggery has been gaing on : for some time, the true facts - behind it all are just now com- ing to light.

This application is still in the crocess of peing considered but Reynolds is possibly going to recommend non-accsptance due to the juvenile record cn file with the department for Alderman.

‘ SL ‘ . a ‘ Memorandum - pac art: June 22, 1973 : ‘This Federal employee willingly and wantonly violated the laws of this State. He knew what he was doing. Had he advised the local wolice of the Tharp shooting, the Guild Theater would never have been bombed. Had he not permitted Godfrey to : possess illegal explosives in his home, the Guild Theeter would never have been bombed. Without Mr. Christiansen there would never have been any camber of crimes committed in this cormunity. For the best of all possible motives, he too possessed a a § Watergate mentality and just tries everything on the basis of . the results. To him, apparently, the “result justifies the : means." Regardless of how much lawbreaking ther @was. Why 3 is not the District Attorney of this County seeking an indictment against Mr. Christiansen? Does Mr. Christiansen claim "exuctive immunity" as did the Watergate conspirators? Was e government justified in this sort of illegality and immorali how? The only possibility is that we citizens of this County and of this National must accept immoral and illegal acts on the part of our civil servants, justified because they act on a higher morality than we near mortals. Or, alternatively, we may pose the question: How deeply was the United States involved in the Godfrey-Christiansen conspiracy? Did Godfrey have permission from the Federal Bureau of Investigation to violate the law? Was the Secret Army Crganization realiv an arm of the F.B.I? Was it used by the F.B.I to do acts the FB.I. itself could not do? Please ~- Mr. Richardson -- answer the question. ee FREDERICK HETTER FH:h fn Als [iL “4 New AG \. * : ae : . ‘ ° | .

ORGANIZATION STRUCTURE On October 8, 1972, JERRY LYNN DAVIS, leader of the Secret Army Organization (SAO) who is generally known as SAM DAVIS, advised that the SAO is now "dead" as far as & San Diego is concerned. (SD T-1, October 8, 1972) During late October, 1972, JERRY LYNN DAVIS stated that because of court proceedings against SAO members in San Diego, California, the SAO has become a defunct organization. A small pocket of SAO members continue to exist in Los Angeles, California, and two members remain in the Seattle, Washington, area. The unaffected elements may possibly band together but under a different label. (SD T-1, October 27, 1972) On January 16, 1973, JERRY LYNN DAVIS was interviewed by Special Agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) at San Diego, California. He advised that the SAO is now no longer active because of the arrests of members in San Diego and because of the demoralizing effect of learning that HOWARD BARRY GODFREY was reporting to the FBI concerning the activities of the SAO and its members. He said San Diego had been the headquarters of the SAO. Both the National Headquarters and the San Diego Unit of the SAO have ceased to exist. The only remaining group of SAO members might possibly be a small group operating independently in Los Angeles, California, under a leader who DAVIS would not identify. DAVIS said he is completely disenchanted with right-wing activity and will no longer participate in such activity. He intends to cooperate fully with law enforcement . ‘agencies. He complained that when he was arrested recently, only one or two of his “right-wing friends" stood by him. He intends to move out of the State of.California and live in Mississippi where he has relatives. i! 4 if be anne mn get aid a aesecenanshen meme eet the Ned Ved WER, SOMONE, ob mmenetennen!

HW 55000 DocTd?37989523—Page -96— ° a wl ge, fj a SD 157-2815 AT PHOENIX, ARIZONA The state coordinator of SAO activity at Phoenix, Arizona, has been instructed to include the State of New Mexico in recruiting efforts for the SAO. (SD T-1, May 10, 1972) In Arizona the SAO has mailed a considerable amount of literature pertaining to the SAO to "conservative" thinking people, but has not at this time received response from the type of people they wish to affiliate. Consequently, no formal chapter or nucleus around which to organize has been formed in Arizona. However, a coordinator has been named and is operating. Not all former Minutemen will be accepted into the SAO. The SAO foresees a decentralized type of operation in each state, where in a revolutionary situation brought about by treasonous communist elements, the SAO could present a militant front immediately. Recent bulletin material from SAO Headquarters in San Diego has introduced the thought that "the basic battle facing our country today is the one between individualism and collectivism. In its political form it appears as personal freedom versus police-state regimentation.....In times of emergency, our members are not going to depend on General Headquarters for training material, bulletins and printed propaganda items. Local units and often the lone individual will have to improvise all these things. Communications to and from higher commands may be uncertain and the transmission of organization orders may be slow. We must have people who think for themselves. Equally important, we must have people who can see what needs to be done and. get at : (SD T-1, May 26, 1972) — ‘ - ff é ~12- . ; nape ire “ret, } mete cert oor * “Ir pd . . ' t . . we ' .
