McCumber Backs Sequoyah Statehood Plan in Senate
Washington March. Senator McCumber of North Dakota proposes a substitute bill to create Oklahoma as one state and Indian Territory as Sequoyah, excluding Arizona and New Mexico for now.

Bailey hints at forcing a vote via an appropriation bill if Cannon blocks action. The measure faces a vote tomorrow at four o'clock.
