Bill Harris is talking. : (Inaudible) I: All right, hold on just a minute, Bill. Bill, would you shut upa minute. H: Right. I: This is Bill Harris here at the-- H: Hawaiian-- 1 from me-- I: --Hawaiian Motel. He is sitting here across I: --and we are doing- a bit of talking, and he 1 is chuckling in the,process. But he has some things to say. He is a very, very intelligent person. I: Would you shut up a minute. I read you out, honey, already. H: I read you out too; you're good. You're more better than I am.

I have watched his body. I have listened to him. I've watched him. He's a fine person. I thin): in some ways because: of the extent of his intelligence hc's a bit frustrated because--i think he's deeply psychic--because I've watched him and listened to him. Many times, people with the lower levels of psychic ability have this feeling. I think Bill is one of them. He has not studied, I don't think, to the extent you and I have, David. And I think maybe we can introduce him to some areas of study that will mean a great deal to him, and I will try to do so. But I an going to leave this tape on because he has had some very significant experiences in his Life that arc interesting to listen to and to assess. And so, Bill, come on; in an organized way say how it is with you. II: I've been tied up with organized labor for the last years. I: All right, organized labor in what form? II: In form of organizing.

And then the president of the AFSCME Corporation, was Jerry Wurf, decided we would win in AFSCME and we would win in Memphis, regardless of whether we had to sacrifice who it was and what it was. I firmly believe that Martin Luther King was a sacrifice for the labor movement. He was killed by the labor movement. They can accuse who they want to. But I firmly believe that rr. Pay, or whoever it was, was committed to kill Martin Luther King was killed by assassins, assassins unknown, was killed by the labor movement. flow-- fl: And I'll tell you why. Because Jerry Wurf -,0=-.

And w::en Martin Luther 1:ing was assassinated, I was the director, eastern regional director, southern director, for the American Fefieration of State:, County, and Municipal I'.nployees. And Mr. Wurf walked in and took over the operation. And he told me, period, I was no longer in charge of operation and he was in charge of the operation. From then on and from that daforward until the 2th day of Martin Luther Ring's assassination, he was in charge, period. I: What was his name again? Jerry WUrf. He was the president of our international. Until that day, Martin Luther King went to Atlanta. Two day p prior to that, he went to Atlanta to go to his father's church. He asked that: he not be brougtt back until the violence had subsided. Ile did not want to participate in any organization with non-violence. My international president assured him that there would he non-violence. I was the principal organizer of the drive. and was--

H: All right, I asked him and Jim Pierce-- I: Who? II: Jim Pierce was my regional director. I asked Jerry Wurf whether cir not he could assure me there would be no violence, no other thing, and we would ask Martin Luther King to return to Memphis. He told me in his own words--he guaranteed me--there would be no violence on any part. The preachers in the church in Memphis, in the Alabama church, in the Albania church, in all the Lutheran church, told me that there would be no violence. And I told my president, and Jerry Wurf concluded there would he no violence if Martin--we paid Martin Luther King to be flown to Memphis, Tennessee. And there was a conspiracy to assassinate him among the unions before he got there. I: What unions? : Teamsters. I: Other ones? H: They paid for it. I: Were there other unions involved beside the

Gather your thoughts together because I want a concrete answer. II: I never hurt nobody. I: I want you to say on this tape what it is in your innermost self you feel you have learned from all this turbulence and life experience you passed through. I know that it has changed your life in many ways. I'm hoping that it has changed it in a positive way rather than a negative way, and perhaps you can say what has all this meant to you within the last five years. Can you say? All right, take the mic, gather your thoughts together, and see if you can say what all of this has meant to you from a perhaps detached and philosophical point of view at this

I: And where were you born? OcL.r)b..:a- 2i '.. 1 1 I: Where? lid In a little southern town in North Carolina. I:1 Where in North Carolina? I was born in North Carolina in in a little town called White Lake, North Carolina. I was violently opposed to the assassination when I started out with it. I was told--first, let me tell you something. I've left the labor movement since then. I've not been associated with the labor movement since then. I was violently opposed to assassination when I was told it had to be. And Tay has no connection with the assassination whatsoever. It was perpetrated by the labor movement. It was sponsored by the Teamsters Union. He was shot and killed by the Teamsters Union. And the figure you have there today was only a figure. Pay is only a damn figure

2 4 1 1 of the imagination, a guy that was perpetrated--put gave the money to be there and perforated for it. The international organization paid politically to assassinate Martin Luther King. They had to win in Memphis. They had to beat the governor there--the mayor there--because he was Jewish. He was elected by the labor movement. I: Uho was Jewish? H: Who in the hell it was, what in the hell it was. This Jew there was a guy that owned [inaudible], a damn hamburver stand. He' was Jewish to start off with. His name was Jewish. Now, I was brought in there not as a participant but I was brought in there as a damn organizer. I was told what to do. Martin Luther King was assassinated by the labor movement, by the Teamster Union, and Ray had nothing to do with it, net one iota. No part of it. No part of it. He couldn't even fire the first shot because nobody knew where he was staying at but Jerry Wurf, myself, and three other people knew where Martin Luther King,was staying at. I: My darling-- I: --you sort of bared your soul. IT: I didn't bare my soul. I: Well, up to a point, yes. It's good for you-- H: 'Inaudible]

A human being lives at many, many levels. And you have a fine mind, and you know that, and it's a frustration to you because you don't really realize the levels that you're living.
