Secession Movement
Sponsors Ask Support
Of Northern Calif.
Sunday, December 9, 1358
MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE NINE
Dunsmuir Sponsors of the
northern California "secession to
statehood" movement last week
petitioned support of the North
ern California Inter-County
Chamber of Commerce. '
Letters were mailed to gov
ernmental heads and promotiou
al bodies of the eight counties
which the movement would en
compass. The counties are Siski
you, Shasta, .Trinity, Lassen,
Plumas, Modoc, Del Norte and
Humboldt.
The letters noted need for
northern California counties to
protect their natural resources.
Also' noted was the fact that
"time, talents and funds are
lacking in the sparsely populat
ed,' mountainous areas to com
bat the statistical .barrage and
legal talent massed by .the met
ropolitan areas."
Only Hope
Suggested in the letter as "the
only hope of the northern Cali
fornia counties" was a movement
to unite-. B. F. Mason, Dunsmuir,
and Pat Hanratty, Mount Shas
ta, signers of the letters, asked
support in the state of Shajta
movement and in seeking admis
sion to the union thrpugh fed
eral steps using the precedent
set in 1861. In that year West
Virginia was admitted to the un
ion, without' the consent of the
mother'state of Virginia.
It was pointed out Thursday
in a United Press report -that-the
proposal to make a. new
state, from the eight counties is
possible legally according to the
Library of Congress. It was also
noted, however, that permission
of- the Caalifornia legislature as
well as Congress would be nec
essary. Brookings U.R) Talk of
secession in eight-northem -Cali-fomia
counties has revived the
spark of. rebellion that once
burned brightly in Oregon's
mountain-bound Curry county.
Secession Move
. It was here that another se
cession move was once launched
in 1941 and efforts made to form
the state of Jefferson. But the.
enthusiasm for statehood faded
Eugene Mars Assumes
Duties at Airport. I
Eugene L. Mars has assumed 1
duties in the civil aeronautics '
administration's control tower j
at Medford airport. He replaces
Earl A. Wescott, who was trans-!
ferred to Seattle, Wash., recent-i
ly. . 1
' - Mars comes here from Ar-;
cadia, .Calif., where he also was
a communications man. He and '
his family have jnoved.to the!
Rogue valley. " . '
in a wartime fervor of unity
with the motherland.
Friday however, the hard core
of secessionists took note of the
northern Caiifornia plan to form
a state Of "Shasta" independent
of waterJiungry southern Cali
fornia. In Curry county, the so-called
"Freedomists" are mainly mad
at the Oregon highway depart
ment for its' failure to' link ft
with interior southwest Oregon.
They claim they have been kept ,
yoked and shackled.
The Freedomists wired . Pat
Hanratty,' provisional secretary
of state of the provisional state
of Shasta: "We rise to proclaim
our freedom .from such intoler
ance and stand ready with you
in forming the great state of
Shasta."
