...most of the radicals -were going to burn their draft cards, I would call the FBI." He tried, he says, to keep his news and FBI work separate, but as his Bureau activities became more demanding, he found "I couldn't do this one hundred percent of the time." When, for example, David Dellinger (now a defendant in Chicago) spoke at a rally at San Diego State College shortly before the Republican convention, Oilman "went down there not as a newsman but to gather news for the FBI." It was this occasion that provided the basis of his testimony...
Louis Salzberg would also do it all over again, "twice, if necessary," he says, "because Uncle Sam should have cracked the whip and put these people away a long time ago." In Salzberg's case, it was the FBI that first got in touch with him nearly three years ago. A staff photographer for New York City's Spanish-language newspaper El Tiempo, he was asked if he would be interested in passing photographs of possible subversives along to the Bureau.

Over the past year, law enforcement agencies have stepped up the use of subpoena powers for "fishing expeditions" in the files of newspapers and TV news film libraries. And just last week in Chicago, hundreds of feet of network news-film-some of it never intended for broadcast-were introduced into the conspiracy trial over defense objections that such...
...radio stations carry his weekday "20th century Reformation" broadcasts. He says that he is forming a rival right-wing group to the A.C.C.C. that he will call the American Christian Action Council. And he controls the small (an estimated 8,000 members) Bible Presbyterian Church-at least for the time being. Last month, at the church's synodal convention, 40% of the delegates voted for a rival candidate to replace Founder Mclntire as moderator...
