vows to fight on

Free Wire Reparis

Susan Edith Saxe, 26, a revolutionary accused of bank robbery and the murder of a policeman, was held under $350,000 bond yesterday at Philadelphia but vowed to "keep fighting.'

"This is not an end but á beginning, she said in a handwritten statement read by a friend. “I intend to keep fighting as a lesbian, as a feminist and as an Amazon ... to whom am I dangerous? Only to a despotic authority."

Miss Saxe of Albany, N.Y., who was on the FBI's most-wanted list for 41⁄2 years, is accused of the Sept. 1, 1972 holdup of a Philadelphia bank and the killing of a policeman during a $26,000 holdup of a Brighton, Mass., bank on Sept. 23, 1970, and is suspected of participating in other holdups at Evanston, IL, and Beverly Hills, Calif.

The former Brandeis University honor student was arrested Thursday night in Philadelphia while walking with a friend and was arraigned before a U.S. magistrate yesterday. Still sought in the Boston bank robbery is Katherine Ann Power, 25, of Denver; three men who participated in that robbery were tried and convicted.

Miss Saxe was the fourth political radical taken into custody since last Nov. 14. For five years wanted members of the New Left had eluded capture. Those arrested recently have been Jane Alpert. accused of bombings in New York City: Patricia Swinton, allegedly a member of the same bombing ring; and Cameron D. Bishop, accused of bombing transmission towers in Colorado that supplied power to defense plants.
