Tve Become Conscious 1
Patricia Hearst With SLA
SAN FRANCISCO (API - Patricia Hearst, the newspaper heiress who was dragged screaming from her apartment two months ago, renounced her family on Wednesday and declared she was joining her terrorist kidnapers as a revolutionary. “I have changed — grown. Tve become conscious and can never go back to the life we led before,” said the tape-recorded voice identified by her mother as that of Patricia. The 20-year-old heiress has been hekj during demands for millions of dollars of free food for the poor. A second voice on the tape, identifying himself as a leader of the terrorist Symbionese Liberaton Army, declared that the heiress to a newspaper fortune was free to leave at any time and added that her freedom was no longer a subject for negotiation. The FBI agent in charge of the case, Charles Bates, said he did not know whether Patricia was staying of her own free will. “I don’t feel it makes any difference in our investigation,” he said. The taped message was delivered to a San Francisco radio station one day after another “communique” that promised details of Miss Hearst’s release would be provided within 72 hours. That message had signaled an apparent end to the two-month Hearst family ordeal during which $2 million in free food was given away and another $4 million pledged to secure the young woman’s release. Patricia’s 18-year-old sister Ann arrived at the family home in suburban Hillsborough moments after the tape was delivered. “I know Patty far too well to think she’d come around like that. She only hears one side of the story ... 1 don’t believe it. She’s too bull-headed.” But on the tape, the latest in a series of suddenly delivered communications from the terrorist group, Patricia said: “1 have learned how vicious the pig really is, and our comrades are teaching me to attack with even greater viciousness ...” Thomas O’Hare, program director of KSAN, the station to which the message was sent.
said the envelope contained the tape, a typed transcript, a color photograph and a thin slip of paper which said the other half of Patricia’s driver’s license was included. But the document, the other half of which was received Tuesday, was not included. The photograph showed Miss Hearst holding aO’ng matic rifle and standing in front of a banner bearing the seven-head-ed cobra symbol of the SLA. The man who identified himself as Cinque, SLA General Field Marshal, said in the tape recording: “There is no further need to discuss the release of the prisoner, since she is now a comrade and has been accepted into the ranks of the peoples’ army as a comrade and fighter. And there is no further basis for negotiations since the subject may leave whenever she feels that she wishes to do so, and she is armed and perfectly willing and able to defend herself.” Miss Hearst was seized the evening of Feb. 4 at the apartment she shared with her fiancee, graduate student Steven Weed. Her abductors sprayed bullets behind them as they left and beat Weed, 26. and a neighbor. The SLA, believed to be a multiracial group of no more than 25 members, also declared certain “corporate enemies of the people” would be shot on sight. Three persons — two black men and one white woman — were said on the broadcast to be on a death list. Miss Hearst’s father, Randolph A. Hearst, is editor and president of the San Francisco Examiner. He returned to the family’s home after the tape was played on KSAN and entered the house without comment. A family spokesman said Hearst’s wife Catherine, after hearing the tape in their home, walked to the top of the staircase landing and remained there for several moments in stunned silence. There had been speculation within past weeks that Miss Hearst may have been in league with the SLA from the outset — speculation
vehemently denied by Weed, her parents and by associates of the Hearst family. Miss Hearst began her message by saying she had never been forced to say anything on any tape “nor have I been brainwashed, drugged, tortured, hypnotized or in any way confused.” She termed the $2-million People in Need food giveaway funded by her father and the William Randolph Hearst Foundation “a sham.” Then, to her parents, she said: “You were playing games — stalling for time — time which the FBI was using in their attempts to assassinate me and the SLA elements which guarded me." She accused her father of being a liar and said, “You said you are concerned with my life and the lives and interests of all oppressed people ... but you are a liar in both areas, and as a member of the ruling class I know your interests and Mom’s are never the interests of the people.” The communique was delivered to the radio station in an envelope marked “energy crisis news.” Another message from the group delivered to an underground newspaper Tuesday arrived with a dozen longstemmed roses. In the 20-minute recording. Miss Hearst said she had been given the name “Tanya,” after a comrade who fought alongside Cuban revolutionary Che Guevara in Bolivia. “I embrace the name with the determination to continue fighting with her spirit," the taped message said. “There is no victory in half-assed attempts at revolution.” The man calling himself Cinque also said: “All corporate enemies of the people will be shot on sight at any time and at any place. This order is permanent, until such time as all enemies have either surrendered or been destroved." The SLA tape gave these identifications of the three individuals it said were singled out forexecution: —Robin Steiner, 20, a white female and “past resident of Berkeley now living in Florida, an informer to the FBI."

testified about how they and Aubran W. Martin executed Yablonski, his wife and daughter. Joseph DiMauro, who sells cars in the Cleveland suburb of Lakewood, testified today he sold Vealey a car for S506 later that day. Donald Bram, of Cleveland, reported Martin came in the same day and bought a car from him, paying $940 in cash. Vealey related Tuesday how the confessed killers considered dynamite, fire bombs and poison before finally shooting Yablonski on a $5,200 murder contract he claims came from a man named “Tony.” George Smith Jr. of Jellico, Tenn., the 14th prosecution witness since testimony began Monday, told the jury of nine men and three women that Gilly and his father-in-law sought to get him to dynamite the Yablonski’s house.

—Chris Thompson, a Berkeley resident alleged to be “a government agent, paid informant for the FBI.” Thompson was identified as a black male, but no age w r as given. —Colston Westbrook, 35, black, “Berkeley language instructor, resident of Oakland, is a government agent, worked for CIA in Vietnam nowworking for military intelligence while giving cross-as-sistance to the FBI.” Much of Miss Hearst’s comments reflected the rhetoric used by the SLA in past “communiques" — plus a personal message addressed to Weed, the young Princeton graduate she was soon to marry. “Steven, I know that you are beginning to realize that there
is no such thing as neutrality in time of war," she said. “My love has expanded as a result of my experiences to embrace all people. It’s grown into an unselfish love for my comrades here, in prison and on the streets. A love that comes from the knowledge that ‘no one is free until we are all free.’ While I wish that you could be a comrade, I don’t expect it — all I expect is that you try to understand the changes Pve gone through. “I have been given the choice of being released in a safe area, or joining the forces of the Symbionese Liberation Army and fighting for my freedom and the freedom of all oppressed people. I have chosen to stav and fight.”
