                            PREAMBLE

     I, Citizen  John E.  Trumane, being  a Massachusetts native-
born white  adult male  living and  working in  Marin County as a
Citizen of  the Republic of California/State since 1979 and I, as
such status,  hereby make  this Special Appearance, by Affidavit,
In Propria  Persona, proceeding Sui Juris, At Law, in Common Law,
with Assistance,  Special, neither  conferring nor  consenting to
any  foreign  jurisdiction,  except  to  the  judicial  power  of
California and/or  America, and  as such  I willfully enforce all
Constitutional  limitations   respectively  on   all   government
agencies  when  dealing  with  them,  wherefore  the  undersigned
Affiant, named  herein and  above, upon  affirmation declares and
evidences the following:

     I, John  E. Trumane, am of lawful age and competent.  I am a
free white  natural born  Citizen in the California Republic, and
thereby in  the united  States of  America, in  fact, by right of
heritage, a Citizen inhabiting the California Republic, protected
via hereditary  succession by my predecessors' previous contracts
with government  as found in the Northwest Ordinance of 1787, the
Organic Act of 1849, the original Constitution of California, the
Articles of  Confederation of  1777,  the  Constitution  for  the
united States  of America  (1787) including its Preamble, and the
Bill of  Rights (1791)  including its  Preamble;  and, as such, I
retain all  my unalienable rights granted by God in positive law,
embodied in  the Declaration  of Independence  (1776) and binding
rights upon myself and my parentage, on this day and for all time
now and hereafter;  and further,

     I, John E. Trumane, a natural born free white adult male, In
Propria Persona,  proceeding Sui  Juris, At Law, with Assistance,
Special, receiving  mail c/o  Post Office  Box xxxx,  San Rafael,
California Republic,  being duly  sworn and affixing my signature
to this  document, do hereby make the following statement of fact
and affirm:   the  so-called "Social Security" number xxx-xx-xxxx
is revoked in application, in body and in signature, for I affirm
that this  agreement was  imposed upon  me by  usage  of  threat,
coercion, withholding  of material facts, and uninformed consent,
and that  I  was  not  at  age  of  majority;    therefore,  this
aforementioned government  action constitutes  constructive fraud
and placed  me under  duress of mind and therefore deprived me of
giving any  meaningful consent  to the original "Social Security"
application and agreement.  This agreement is null and void, nunc
pro tunc, due to the aforementioned fraud;  and further,


              AFFIDAVIT AMENDMENT PROTECTION CLAUSE

     I, the  undersigned, in  order  to  protect  my  unalienable
rights to  life, liberty  and property,  inclusive of my right to
the proper  in rem  and in personam Citizenship status, have been
forced to  amend certain  legal documents  and statements, due to
the  continued   revelation  and   increased  discovery   of  the
continuous acts  of fraud  upon me  by the  de facto governments,
both State and Federal, and therefore I declare that I am free to
amend any  and all  such documents and statements, as a matter of
substantive right,  for I  cannot be  held liable  for either the
acts or the omissions by governments which are out of my control,
which acts and omissions constitute fraud in one form or another.
Therefore, I  proceed at  all times "WITH EXPLICIT RESERVATION OF
ALL MY  RIGHTS AND  WITHOUT PREJUDICE"  to any  of my unalienable
rights,  inclusive  of  my  personal  right  to  substantive  and
procedural due  process proceedings  under the  Judicial Power of
both my State and my Nation.  And further,

     I, John E. Trumane, state and affirm the following:

     1.   That material  facts were  withheld, such  as Title 28,
Section 1746,  Subsections 1  & 2  (being within  or without  the
"United States"), which caused me to be unaware that a completed,
signed, and  submitted "Form  1040" or  "income tax  return"  and
other IRS  and California  Revenue Department forms and documents
are voluntarily executed instruments which could be used as prima
facie  evidence   against  me   in  criminal   trials  and  civil
proceedings  to   show  that   I  had   voluntarily   waived   my
Constitutionally  secured  rights  and  that  I  had  voluntarily
subjected  myself  to  the  federal  income/excise  tax,  to  the
provisions of  the Internal Revenue Code (hereinafter referred to
as  the   IRC),  to  the  authority  of  the  California  Revenue
Department and  to the  authority of the Internal Revenue Service
(hereinafter referred  to as  the IRS)  by  signing  and  thereby
affirming, under penalty of perjury (within the "United States"),
that I  was, in  effect, a "person" subject to the tax;  that the
above  induced  and/or  forced  action,  via  State  and  Federal
governments, clearly  indicates a  violation of the United States
Constitution, Article  1, Section  9, Clause  3:    "No  Bill  of
Attainder or  ex post  facto Law  shall be passed." and Clause 4:
"No Capitation,  or other  direct, Tax  shall be  laid, unless in
Proportion to  the Census or Enumeration hereinbefore directed to
be taken."   These  above  same  injunctions  are  found  in  the
Northwest Ordinance  and in  the California  Constitution.    And
further

                          Page 2 of 24


     2.   That material  facts were  withheld, which caused me to
be unaware  of the legal effects of signing and filing income tax
returns, as  shown by  the decision of the United States Court of
Appeals for  the 9th  Circuit in  the 1974  ruling in the case of
Morse v. U.S., 494 F.2d 876, 880, wherein the Court explained how
a State  Citizen became  a "taxpayer"  by stating:  "Accordingly,
when returns  were filed in Mrs. Morse's name declaring income to
her for  1944 and 1945, making her potentially liable for the tax
due on  that income,  she became a taxpayer within the meaning of
the Internal Revenue Code." [emphasis added]  And further,

     3.   That material  facts were  withheld, which caused me to
be unaware  that the  signing and  filing of an income tax return
and other  IRS forms  are acts of voluntary compliance for a free
Sovereign natural  born Citizen  (see 2:1:5,  U.S.  Constitution)
inhabiting the  united  States  of  America,  when  executed  and
submitted by  said Sovereign living and working within the States
of the  Union;   that I  was unaware that, in a legislative court
such as  a  United  States  District  Court,  the  completed  IRS
documents can  become prima facie evidence, sufficient to sustain
a legal  conclusion by  a judge,  that the signer has voluntarily
changed his  lawful status/state  FROM that  of a  free Sovereign
natural born  Citizen, who  is not  subject to any federal income
tax and  who possesses  all of  his  God-given,  Constitutionally
secured rights  when dealing with government, TO the legal status
of a  "taxpayer" (any  individual,  trust,  estate,  partnership,
association, company  or corporation  subject to  federal  excise
tax), that  is, a  "person" who  is subject to the federal excise
tax and is, therefore, subject to the authority, jurisdiction and
control of  the federal  government under  Title 26 of the United
States Code,  the statutes  governing federal taxation and to the
regulations of  the IRS,  thereby imposing  the tax  on  himself,
waiving his God-given Constitutionally secured rights to property
and labor  in respect  to the  federal income/excise tax statutes
and their  administration by the IRS, and establishing himself as
one who  has privileges only, but no rights, in dealings with the
IRS, the same as a corporation;  that it is my understanding that
the  change   of  status/state  resulting  from  the  signed  IRS
documents is  very similar  to the  change of  status that occurs
when one enlists in the military service and voluntarily takes an
oath that subjects him to the authority, jurisdiction and control
of the  federal government  under Title  10 of  the United States
Code, the statutes governing the armed forces and the regulations
of the  military service,  thereby waiving  his  Constitutionally
guaranteed rights  in relation  to  dealings  with  the  military
services;  and further,


            Correspondence with State of California:
                          Page 3 of 24


     4.   That I,  as a natural born free Sovereign inhabitant in
the united  States of America, in the Republic of California, and
as  a   freeman,  am   endowed  by   my  Creator   with  numerous
unalienable/inalienable rights  which include but are not limited
to my  rights to  "life, liberty  and the  pursuit  of  happiness
(property)," which  rights are  specifically  identified  in  the
Magna Carta  (1215) and  the Declaration  of Independence (1776),
and protected  and secured  by the  Constitution for  the  united
States of  America (1789)  and the  subsequent  Bill  of  Rights,
Articles in  Amendment 1  thru 10  (1791);  that my birthright to
the "life,  liberty  and  the  pursuit  of  happiness"  has  been
interpreted by  both the  Framers of  the Constitution and by the
U.S. Supreme  Court to  include my unalienable right to contract,
to acquire, to deal in, to sell, rent, and exchange properties of
various  kinds,   real  and   personal,  without   requesting  or
exercising any  privilege or  franchise from  government;  that I
have learned  that these unalienable property rights also include
my right  to contract  for the  exchange of my labor-property for
other properties  and remuneration,  such as wages, salaries, and
other earnings;   that  I have never knowingly, intentionally, or
voluntarily waived  any of  these unalienable  rights, nor can I,
John E.  Trumane, be  forced to waive any of these rights granted
to me  by God the Father, my Creator (see Brady v. U.S., 397 U.S.
742, 748),  because I  am endowed with these rights by my Creator
and by nobody else and nothing else;  and further,

     5.   That I  understand that,  if the  exercise of my rights
were subjected  to taxation, these same rights could be destroyed
by increasing  the tax  rates to unaffordable levels;  therefore,
courts  have  repeatedly  ruled  that  government  has  no  power
whatsoever to tax or otherwise "lien" against the exercise of any
rights, particularly  the rights  of Sovereign Citizens, as shown
by the U.S. Supreme Court in the case of Murdock v. Pennsylvania,
319 U.S.  105 (1943),  which stated:   "A  state may not impose a
charge for  the enjoyment  of a  right  granted  by  the  Federal
Constitution.";  that unalienable rights are rights against which
no lien  can be established precisely because they are un-a-lien-
able;   that America's  founding documents  enumerate some  of my
unalienable rights,  none of  which rights  I  have  ever  waived
knowingly, voluntarily,  and intentionally;  that I freely choose
to obey  all  American  Law  and  to  pay  all  Lawful  taxes  in
jurisdictions which  are applicable  to me  for the  common good;
that I  stand In  Propria Persona with Assistance, Special;  that
my status  and unalienable  rights, as  stated hereinafter and in
the foregoing, are not negotiable;  and further,

     6.   That, for  years past and at least since the year 1964,
I have  been influenced by numerous cases of people going to jail
and being  punished, and  also by  numerous and  repeated  public
warnings made  by the  California Revenue  Department and  by the
IRS, via  radio, television, the printed press and other forms of
public communication  media, warning of the "deadline" for filing
State and  Federal forms, such as a "Form 1040 Income Tax Return"
and/or other  IRS forms  and documents;  this therefore caused me
to file said forms under duress;  and further,


            Correspondence with State of California:
                          Page 4 of 24


     7.   That, in  addition to  the aforesaid  warnings, I  have
also been  influenced by  the misleading and deceptive wording of
IRS publications and IRS-generated news articles, by the pressure
of widespread  rumors and  misinformed public opinion, and by the
advice  and  assurances  of  lawyers,  C.P.A.'s  and  income  tax
preparers which  misled me  to believe  incorrectly that the 16th
Amendment to  the Constitution  for the  united States of America
abolished the  Fifth Amendment  of  that  same  Constitution  and
authorized Congress to impose a direct tax on me, my property, my
exchanges of  property and/or  property received  as a  result of
exercising my Constitutionally secured right to contract;  that I
was further  misled into  believing that  I had  a legal duty and
obligation to  file a "Form 1040 Income Tax Return" and other IRS
and State  tax forms,  schedules and  documents, and  that I  was
unaware of  Title 28,  Section 1746 wherein there are two perjury
clauses, one  stating that you are within the "United States" and
one stating  that you  are without  the  "United  States."    The
perjury clauses  on both  State and  Federal tax forms stipulate,
under penalty  of perjury,  that I was stating unknowingly that I
was within  the "United States."  This is an act of fraud by both
State and Federal taxing agencies.  And further,

     8.   That I  have also  been further  influenced, misled and
alarmed by  rumors, by  misinformed public  opinion  and  by  the
advice  and  assurances  of  lawyers,  C.P.A.'s  and  income  tax
preparers to  the effect that "the IRS and the California Revenue
Department will get you," and that it would be a crime punishable
by fine  and/or imprisonment if I did not fill out, sign and file
with the  IRS a  "Form 1040";   that,  in point of fact, the only
person actually  named within  the IRC  as a  person required  to
collect an income tax, to file an income tax return and to pay an
income tax is a "Withholding Agent";  and that, to the best of my
knowledge, I  am not  now, nor  have I  ever been  a "Withholding
Agent";  and further,

     9.   That, in  addition to  all of  the  reasons  stated  in
paragraphs 6,  7 and  8 above, I was influenced by the common and
widespread  practice   of  employers  who,  either  knowingly  or
unknowingly, without  Power of  Attorney,  misled  me  and  their
employees to  believe that they and I must have a Social Security
Number and  that all  are subject  to the  withholding of "income
taxes"  from   their  earnings,  either  with  or  without  their
permission,  based   upon  the   employers'   possible   mistaken
assumption that  they, as  employers,  are  required  by  law  to
withhold "income  taxes" from  the paychecks  of their employees,
which is  contrary to  the Sections 3402(n), 7343 and 7701(a)(16)
of the  IRC, absent  a  voluntary  execution  of  Form  W-4,  the
"Employee's Withholding Allowance Certificate";  and further,

     10.  That  I   have  also  been  mistakenly  influenced  and
mistakenly impressed by annual public displays and indiscriminate
public offerings  by the IRS and the State of large quantities of
the Forms  1040 and  540 in  banks, post offices, and through the
U.S. mail,  which public  displays and  offerings  also  had  the
effect of  reminding me of, and inducing me to respond mistakenly
by filling  out, signing  and sending  "Form 1040" to the IRS and
"Form 540" to the State Franchise Tax Board (FTB);  and further,


            Correspondence with State of California:
                          Page 5 of 24


     11.  That said  "Forms 1040"  contained no  reference to any
law or  laws which  would explain  just exactly who is and who is
not subject  to, or liable for, the income tax, State or Federal,
nor did  it contain  any notice  or warning to anyone that merely
sending said  completed "Form  1040" to  the IRS  would waive  my
right to  privacy, as  secured by  the 4th  Amendment to the U.S.
Constitution, and also waive my right to not be a witness against
myself, as secured by the 5th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution,
and that  a completed  "Form 1040"  would, in  itself, constitute
legal evidence,  admissible in  a court of law, that the filer is
subject to  and liable for the income/excise tax, even though and
regardless of  the fact  that I, as a free Sovereign natural born
Citizen (see  2:1:5, U.S.  Constitution), am actually and legally
not subject to the statutory jurisdiction of Title 26, nor liable
for any  income/excise tax,  and regardless  of the fact that, to
the best  of my  knowledge, I  have no  legal duty  or obligation
whatsoever to  complete and  file any "Form 1040" or State income
tax forms,  nor did  they evidence  Title 28,  Section 1746;  and
further

     12.  That at no time was I ever notified or informed, by the
IRS or  by the State of California, nor by any of their agents or
employees, nor  by any  lawyer, C.P.A.,  or tax  preparer, of the
fact that  the  16th  Amendment  to  the  U.S.  Constitution,  as
correctly interpreted  by the U.S. Supreme Court in such cases as
Brushaber v.  Union Pacific  Railroad Co.,  240 U.S. 1 (1916) and
Stanton v. Baltic Mining Co., 240 U.S. 103 (1916), identified the
income tax  as an  indirect excise tax in accordance with Article
1, Section  8, Clause  1 of  the United States Constitution; that
the  16th  Amendment  to  the  U.S.  Constitution,  as  correctly
interpreted by  the U.S.  Supreme Court, does not authorize a tax
on individuals  but is  applicable to  nonresident  aliens  (e.g.
Frank Brushaber)  who involve themselves in activities, events or
occupations which come under, or are within, the taxing authority
of the  "United States",  as explained in Treasury Decision 2313,
March 21,  1916;   that the  16th Amendment  was  never  actually
ratified nor could it have been enacted into positive law because
the requisite number of States (i.e., 36) did not meet the lawful
requirements for  amending the  Constitution;  and that a mass of
incontrovertible material  evidence available since the year 1985
proves that  the act of "declaring" the 16th Amendment "ratified"
was an  act of  outright fraud by Secretary of State Philander C.
Knox in the year 1913;  and further,

     13.  That at  no time was I ever notified or informed by the
California Department  of Revenue nor by the IRS, their agents or
employees, nor  by any  lawyer, C.P.A.,  or tax  preparer, of the
fact that,  because of  various rulings of the U.S. Supreme Court
in such  cases as  Flint v. Stone Tracy Co., 220 U.S. 107 (1911),
and Pollock  v. Farmer's Loan and Trust Co., 157 U.S. 492 (1895),
the indirect  excise tax  on incomes  identified by the so-called
16th Amendment is also a tax upon corporate privileges granted by
government, which  tax is  measured by  the amount  of  corporate
income (see  Corporations Tax  Act, Statutes at Large, 1909, vol.
XXXVI, section  38, page  112);  that this indirect excise tax is
also imposed  on the  taxable income of foreign corporations, and
on the  taxable income  of nonresident  aliens to the extent this
(latter) income  is either effectively connected with the conduct
of a  trade or  business within the corporate jurisdiction of the
"United States",  or derived  from sources  within the  corporate
jurisdiction of  the "United  States"  although  not  effectively
connected with  the conduct  of  trade  or  business  within  the
corporate jurisdiction  of  the  "United  States",  according  to
Sections 871 and 872 of the IRC;  and further,


            Correspondence with State of California:
                          Page 6 of 24


     14.  That my attention has been called to Report No. 80-19A,
entitled "Some  Constitutional Questions  Regarding  the  Federal
Income Tax  Laws" published  by the  American Law Division of the
Congressional  Research  Service  of  the  Library  of  Congress,
updated January  17, 1980;   that  this publication describes the
tax on "income" identified in the so-called 16th Amendment to the
U.S. Constitution  as an  indirect excise  tax;  that this report
stated:   "The Supreme  Court, in  a decision  written  by  Chief
Justice White,  first noted  that  the  16th  Amendment  did  not
authorize any  new type  of tax,  nor did it repeal or revoke the
tax clauses  of Article  I of  the  United  States  Constitution,
quoted above.",  and further  stated:  "Therefore, it can clearly
be determined  from the  decisions of  the United  States Supreme
Court that  the income  tax is  an indirect tax, generally in the
nature of  an excise  tax ....", thus proving in my mind that the
"income tax"  is not a tax on me as a free Sovereign natural born
Citizen (see  2:1:5,  U.S.  Constitution),  but  is,  rather,  an
indirect excise  tax as  described by  the U.S.  Supreme Court in
Flint v.  Stone Tracy  Co., 220 U.S. 107 (1911), wherein the high
Court  defined   excise  taxes   as  "...  taxes  laid  upon  the
manufacture, sale,  or  consumption  of  commodities  within  the
country, upon  licenses to  pursue certain  occupations, and upon
corporate   privileges    ....",   none    of   which   aforesaid
classifications apply to me;  and further,

     15.  That  I   was  unaware  of  the  truth  of  the  rarely
publicized statement  by the  IRS that the "income" tax system is
based upon "voluntary compliance with the law and self-assessment
of tax";   that  I was  unaware before  June of  1990 of a posted
notice  in  the  main  lobby  of  the  Federal  Building  in  San
Francisco, California  outside the  offices  of  the  IRS,  which
reads, in  pertinent part,  "The purpose  of the Internal Revenue
Service is  to ...  encourage and  achieve the  highest degree of
voluntary  compliance   in  accordance  with  the  tax  laws  and
regulations.";   that I  was unaware before June of 1990 that Mr.
Roger  M.   Olsen,  Assistant  Attorney  General,  Tax  Division,
Department of  Justice,  Washington,  D.C.,  made  the  following
statement to  an assemblage  of tax  lawyers on May 9, 1987:  "We
encourage voluntary  compliance by scaring the heck out of you.";
that it  has never  been either  my intention  nor my  desire  to
voluntarily self-assess an excise tax upon myself, nor to give up
my right  to property,  nor to voluntarily subject myself to such
an excise  tax;   that I  had always  thought that compliance was
required by law;  and further,

     16.  That I have examined Sections 871 thru 878, 1441, 1442,
1443, 3401(c),  6001, 6011, 6012(a), 6331(a), 7203, 7205 and 7343
of the  IRC (Title  26 U.S.C.),  and I  am entirely convinced and
completely satisfied  that I am not now, nor was I ever, any such
"person" or  individual referred  to  by  these  sections;    and
further


            Correspondence with State of California:
                          Page 7 of 24


     17.  That,  after  careful  study  of  the  IRC,  and  after
consultations on  the  provisions  of  that  Code  with  informed
lawyers,  tax   accountants  and  tax  preparers  concerning  the
provisions of  the IRC,  I have  never found  or been  shown  any
sections of  the IRC that imposed any requirement on me as a free
Sovereign  natural  born  Citizen  and  unprivileged  inhabitant,
living and  working within  a County within a State of the Union,
to file a "Form 1040 Income Tax Return" or any other State income
tax form,  or that  imposed a requirement upon me to pay a tax on
"income", or  that would  classify me  as a "person liable", as a
"person made  liable", or  as a "taxpayer" as the term "taxpayer"
is defined  in 26 U.S.C. Section 7701(a)(14), which states:  "The
term 'taxpayer'  means any person subject to any internal revenue
tax.";  and further,

     18.  That, after  the study  and consultations  mentioned in
paragraph 17,  the only  mention of any possible requirement upon
me, as  an individual,  to pay  a tax  on "income",  that I could
find, or  was shown  in 26  U.S.C., was the title of Part I under
Subtitle A,  Chapter 1, Subchapter A (which is deceptively titled
"Tax on  Individuals") and  Section 6012(a),  Subtitle F, Chapter
61-A, Part  II-B, Subpart  B, and  the California  Tax  Statutes;
that a  careful study  and earnest  examination of these parts of
the IRC  revealed that  the "individuals"  to whom these sections
refer are,  in fact, either individuals who work within a foreign
country like  France and  are taxed according to a tax treaty, or
they are  nonresident aliens  who receive  income which is either
effectively connected  with the  conduct of  a trade  or business
within the  corporate jurisdiction  of the  "United  States",  or
derived from  sources within  the corporate  jurisdiction of  the
"United States",  although not  effectively  connected  with  the
conduct of trade or business within the corporate jurisdiction of
the "United  States", according  to Sections  871 and  872 of the
IRC;   and that,  to the  best of  my  knowledge,  I  have  never
conducted any trade or business within the corporate jurisdiction
of the  "United States",  nor have  I ever  derived  income  from
sources within the corporate jurisdiction of the "United States";
and further,

     19.  That, after  the study  and consultations  mentioned in
paragraph 17  above, my  attention was called to the IRC, Chapter
21,  entitled   "Federal  Insurance  Contributions  Act"  (Social
Security), and  my attention  was also  called to Subchapter A of
Chapter 21  entitled "Tax  on Employees",  which includes Section
3101, wherein the (Social Security) tax is identified as a tax on
"income", not  as an  "Insurance Contribution",  not as a "Tax on
Employees", and  not as  a tax  on wages  or earnings;   that  my
attention was  further called  to  these  facts:    there  is  no
provision in  the IRC  that  imposes  the  tax  on  employees  or
requires them to pay the tax;  a voluntarily signed and completed
Form W-4,  "Employee's Withholding Allowance Certificate", allows
an employer  to withhold  money from  a worker's  pay for (Social
Security) "income"  tax, even  though the  worker has  claimed on
that form to be "exempt" from the graduated "income" tax;  and an
employer has  no authority  to withhold money from a worker's pay
for  the  (Social  Security)  "income"  tax,  for  the  graduated
"income" tax,  nor for  any IRS-imposed  penalty or assessment if
there is  no voluntarily  signed "W-4"  form in  force and a Form
2678, Granting Power of Attorney;  and further,


            Correspondence with State of California:
                          Page 8 of 24


     20.  That, after  the study  and consultations  described in
paragraph 17  above, my  attention was called to Section 61(a) of
the IRC,  which lists  items that are sources of "income", and to
the following facts:  that IRS Collections Summons Form 6638 (12-
82) confirms  that these  items are  sources,  not  "income",  by
stating  that   the  following  items  are  "sources":    "wages,
salaries, tips,  fees, commissions,  interest, rents,  royalties,
alimony, state  or local  tax refunds, pensions, business income,
gains from  dealings in property, and any other compensations for
services (including  receipt of  property  other  than  money).";
that sources  are not  "income", but  sources become  "income" if
they are entered as "income" on a signed "Form 1040", because the
signer affirms,  under penalty  of perjury  (within  the  "United
States"), that  the items  entered in the "income" section of the
"Form 1040"  are "income"  to the  signer;   that  Section  61(b)
clearly indicates  which Sections  of the  IRC identify  and list
items that  are included  in "income"  by stating:    "For  items
specifically included  in gross  income, see Part II (sec. 71 and
following)";  and further,

     21.  That my  attention was  then called to the said Part II
entitled: "Items  Specifically Included in Gross Income";  that I
studied sections  71 thru  87 and  noticed that  wages, salaries,
commissions,  tips,   interest,   dividends,   pensions,   rents,
royalties, etc.,  are not listed as being included in "income" in
those Sections  of the  IRC;   and that, in fact, those items are
not mentioned  anywhere in any of these sections of the IRC;  and
further

     22.  That, after further diligent study, it appears entirely
clear to  me that  the only way that property received by me as a
free  Sovereign   natural   born   Citizen   (see   2:1:5,   U.S.
Constitution), living and working within the States of the Union,
in the  form of  wages, salaries,  commissions,  tips,  interest,
dividends, rents,  royalties and/or  pensions could  be, or could
have been  legally considered to be "income", is if I voluntarily
completed and  signed a  "Form 1040  Income Tax  Return", thereby
affirming, under penalty of perjury (within the "United States"),
that the  information on  such "Form  1040" was true and correct,
and that  any amounts  listed on  the "Form 1040" in the "income"
block were  "income", and  thereby acknowledging  under  oath  or
affirmation, that I am, or was, a taxpayer subject to the tax and
have, or  had, a  duty to  file a  "Form 1040  Income Tax Return"
and/or other  IRS forms,  documents and  schedules, none of which
instruments I  have ever  signed with  the understanding  that  I
signed them  knowingly, voluntarily,  and  intentionally  and  by
means  of   knowingly  intelligent   acts  done  with  sufficient
awareness of all the relevant circumstances and consequences (see
Brady v.  United States,  397 U.S.  742);   and that, when I have
sent in  State and  Federal tax  forms purposely not signed, they
were returned  to me  with a  letter instructing  and stipulating
that I  must sign the forms under the penalty of perjury, thereby
claiming that  I was a "United States citizen" due to the wording
of the perjury clause (Title 28 U.S.C. 1746);  and further,


            Correspondence with State of California:
                          Page 9 of 24


     23.  That, with good faith, with an honest reliance upon the
aforementioned U.S.  Supreme Court rulings and with reliance upon
my constitutionally  protected Natural Common Law Bill of Rights,
Amendments 1  thru 10  (1791), to  lawfully contract, to lawfully
work and to lawfully acquire and possess property, I am convinced
and satisfied  that I  am not  now, nor  was I  ever subject  to,
liable for,  or required  to pay an income/excise tax;  that I am
not now,  nor have  I ever been a "taxpayer", and there has never
been a Judicial Power proceeding in which it was ruled that I was
a "taxpayer"  as that  term is  defined and used in the IRC;  and
that I  have never had any legal duties or obligations whatsoever
to file any "Form 1040" or to make any "income tax return", or to
sign or  submit any  other IRS "individual" forms or documents or
schedules, to  pay any  "individual"  income  tax,  to  keep  any
personal financial records, or to supply any personal information
to the IRS;  and further,

     24.  That the  U.S.  Congress,  the  International  Monetary
Fund, the Federal Reserve Banks and the Internal Revenue Service,
by means  of vague, deceptive and misleading words and statements
in the IRC, in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), in official
statements by  IRS Commissioners  in the Federal Register, in IRS
publications  and   in  IRS-generated  news  articles,  committed
constructive  fraud   and  misrepresentation  by  misleading  and
deceiving me,  as well as the general public, into believing that
I was  required to  file "Form 1040 Income Tax Returns" and other
IRS forms,  documents and  schedules and that I was also required
to keep  records, to  supply information and to pay income taxes;
and further,

     25.  That, by  reason of  the  aforementioned  facts,  I  do
hereby exercise  my rights  as  a  free  Sovereign  natural  born
Citizen (see  2:1:5, U.S.  Constitution), upheld by various court
decisions, to revoke, to cancel and to render null and void, Nunc
Pro Tunc,  both  currently  and  retroactively  to  the  time  of
signing, based  upon the constructive fraud and misrepresentation
perpetrated upon me by the Federal government, the U.S. Congress,
the IRS,  the "State  of California",  its Revenue Department and
the Franchise Tax Board (FTB), all IRS and FTB forms, statements,
documents, returns, schedules, contracts, licenses, applications,
articles, certificates  and/or commercial  agreements ever signed
and/or submitted  by  me,  or  on  my  behalf  by  third  parties
(including but  not limited to Forms 1040 and attached schedules,
Forms W-2, Forms W-4, and Forms 1099) on the accounts bearing the
account numbers  xxx-xx-xxxx, xx-xxxxxxx, and xx-xxxxxxx, and all
my signatures  on  any  and  all  of  the  aforementioned  items,
including  the  original  "Social  Security"  application,  which
caused the  account bearing  the account number xxx-xx-xxxx to be
established;   that this  notice of  revocation is  based upon my
rights with  respect to  constructive fraud and misrepresentation
as established  in, but  not limited  to, the  cases of  Tyler v.
Secretary of  State, 184 F.2d 101 (1962) and also El Paso Natural
Gas Co.  v. Kysar Insurance Co., 605 Pacific 2d 240 (1979), which
stated:   "Constructive fraud  as well as actual fraud may be the
basis of cancellation of an instrument.";  and further,


            Correspondence with State of California:
                          Page 10 of 24


     26.  That I  do hereby declare that I am not and never was a
"taxpayer" as  that term is defined in the IRC, a "person liable"
for any  internal revenue  tax, or  a  "person"  subject  to  the
provisions of  the IRC,  and I  do hereby  declare that I am, and
have always  been, a  "nontaxpayer";  that courts have recognized
and acknowledged  that individuals  can be nontaxpayers, "... for
with them  Congress does  not assume to deal and they are neither
the subject  nor the  object of  revenue laws ....", as stated in
the cases  of Long  v. Rasmussen,  281 F.  236 (1922),  Delima v.
Bidwell, 182  U.S. 176,  179, and  Gerth v. United States, 132 F.
Supp. 894 (1955);  and further,

     27.  That evidence  now available  to  me  proves  that  the
Internal Revenue  Service has  to date  failed to comply with the
clear  and   unambiguous  requirements  imposed  on  all  federal
government agencies  by the following Congressional statutes: the
Federal Register Act (44 U.S.C. 1501 et seq.), the Administrative
Procedures  Act  (5  U.S.C.  551  et  seq.),  and  the  Paperwork
Reduction Act  (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);  that the IRS failure to
comply  with  the  requirements  of  these  statutes  constitutes
further constructive  fraud, breach  of fiduciary  trust  between
sovereign Citizens  and public  servants, and  violations of  the
solemn oaths  of office required of federal government officials,
thereby relieving  me of  any and all legal duties which could or
might otherwise  exist for  me to file any returns, schedules, or
other documents  with the IRS;  and that, after having read these
three statutes  and summaries  of related  case  law,  I  thereby
conclude that there is no reason why the IRS would be exempt from
any of  the  clear  and  unambiguous  requirements  imposed  upon
federal   government    agencies   by   these   three   statutes,
notwithstanding any  and all  allegations to  the  contrary  that
heretofore may  have been  published by  the IRS  or the Treasury
Department in the Federal Register without also citing the proper
legal authorities, if any, for such allegations;  and further,

     28.  That recent  diligent studies  have convinced me of the
above, and  that as  such I am not "subject to" the territorially
limited "exclusive  legislation" nor  to the foreign jurisdiction
mandated for  the District of Columbia, federal enclaves, federal
territories, and  federal possessions  by Article  1, Section  8,
Clauses 17  and 18 and Article 4, Section 3, Clause 2 of the U.S.
Constitution, including its "internal" governmental organizations
therein (hereinafter  referred to  as  the  "Federal  Legislative
Democracy" and  elsewhere referred  to in  this Affidavit  as the
"corporate jurisdiction  of the  United States");   that I am not
"subject to"  this foreign  jurisdiction by  reason of  any valid
contract or any  valid commercial agreement resulting in adhesion
thereto across  America,  nor  are  millions  of  other  American
Citizens, unless they have provided "waivers of rights guaranteed
by the  Constitution" by  means of  "knowingly intelligent acts,"
such  as   contracts   or   commercial   agreements   with   such
government(s)  "with   sufficient  awareness   of  the   relevant
circumstances and  likely consequences,"  as ruled  by  the  U.S.
Supreme Court  in Brady v. U.S., 397 U.S. 742 at 748 (1970);  and
that I myself have given no such "waivers";  and further,


            Correspondence with State of California:
                          Page 11 of 24


     29.  That these same diligent studies have also proved to me
that misrepresentation  and a  shrewd and  criminal  constructive
fraud have  been perpetrated upon America Citizens by government,
under  counterfeit   "color  of   law,"  through   the   apparent
entrapments of  "certain ACTIVITIES  (monopoly  occupations)  and
PRIVILEGES  (other   benefits)"  allowed  by  statutory  acts  or
otherwise;   that, by reason of American Law which has never been
repealed, such  sources of  past and  present criminal element in
and  behind   government  should  be  brought  to  justice  in  a
Constitutional  Court   of  Law  for  aiding  and  abetting  this
misrepresentation and  constructive fraud as willing accomplices;
that it  is for  such a Court, with a 12-member jury of peers, to
decide  who   is  and  who  is  not  guilty  among  personnel  of
government, media,  schools,  lawyers,  accountants,  clergy  and
other purveyors  of misinformation and other mind-set propaganda,
in this and related regards;  and further,

     30.  That, due  to such shrewd entrapments over the years, I
have unwittingly  signed many  related documents,  contracts, and
commercial  agreements,  some  even  under  the  "perjury"  jurat
(within the  "United States")  as was  supposedly required;  with
American Law  on my  side, I hereby revoke and cancel any and all
such signatures  and render  them null and void, except for those
which I  may choose  to have  considered  as  being  under  "TDC"
(Threat, Duress and/or Coercion), past and present;  that this is
also my  lawful notice  that all  such signatures  of mine in the
future on  instruments of government or other entities, including
banks, which  might otherwise result in contract adhesion, are to
be considered  as being  under "TDC", whether appearing therewith
or otherwise;  that my Constitutional "Privileges and Immunities"
(per Article  4, Section 2) are apart from those mandated for the
Federal Legislative Democracy by Article 1, Section 8, Clauses 17
and 18  and by  Article 4,  Section 3, Clause 2, and shall not by
Law be  violated ever;   and that my status, in accord, is stated
for all  to see  and know in 2:1:5, 1:2:3, 4:2:1 and 3:2:1 of the
Constitution for the united States of America.  And further,

     31.  That,  with  this  accurate  knowledge  and  with  "the
supreme Law of the Land" (Article 6, Section 2) again on my side,
I do  Lawfully and "squarely challenge" the fraudulent, usurping,
octopus-like authority  and jurisdiction cited above in paragraph
28, which  authority and  jurisdiction do  not apply  to me  (see
Hagans v. Lavine,  415 U.S. 528  at 533);   it is, therefore, now
mandatory for  any personnel of the Federal Legislative Democracy
or its  agents to FIRST PROVE its "jurisdiction," if any, over me
before any  further procedures  can take  place in my regard, per
Title  5   United  States   Code,  "Government  Organization  and
Employees," Section 556(d), specifically by disclosing in writing
any and  all contracts or other commercial agreements whereby the
Federal Legislative  Democracy  and  its  agents  claim  to  have
obtained  controlling  interest  in  me  such  that  my  specific
performance  to  any  third  party  debt  or  obligation  can  be
compelled;   OR ELSE  any of  its personnel  and accomplices  who
willfully violate  this  statute  can  and  shall  be  personally
charged as  citizens under Title 18 U.S. Criminal Codes 241, 242,
1001 and/or  otherwise;  and, in fairness, it must be added that,
to my knowledge, IRS agents have NO written lawful "Delegation of
Authority" within  the 50  States and their so-called "Form 1040"
appears to  be a  bogus and  bootleg document  on its  face;  and
further


            Correspondence with State of California:
                          Page 12 of 24


     32.  That, with  all of  the above  in mind, it appears that
this free  Sovereign natural born American Citizen is, by Law, as
"foreign" and  as much  a "Nonresident Alien" with respect to the
Federal Legislative  Democracy as he is to France, and thus shall
be free to use related Forms of the Federal Legislative Democracy
if and  when they might be needed, required and/or appropriate at
various future  times  and  places  yet  to  be  determined  (see
paragraphs 12,  13 and  18 above),  including but  not limited to
Form W-8 ("Certificate of Foreign Status") for banks and/or other
financial institutions,  Forms 1040X  ("Amended  U.S.  Individual
Income Tax  Return") and  1040NR ("U.S.  Nonresident Alien Income
Tax Return")  for refunds  and for  correcting the administrative
record, and  IRC Section 3402(n) which authorizes certificates of
exemption from withholding.

     33.  That, since my date  of birth on April 30, 1947, I have
always been  a NONRESIDENT  ALIEN with  respect  to  the  Federal
Legislative  Democracy  of  the  "United  States",  never  having
resided, worked,  nor having  any  income,  to  the  best  of  my
recollection, from  any sources  within the District of Columbia,
Puerto Rico,  Virgin  Islands,  Guam,  American  Samoa,  Northern
Mariana Islands,  the Trust  Territory of  the Pacific Islands or
any other  territory or  possession within  the "United  States",
which entity  obtains its  exclusive  legislative  authority  and
jurisdiction from  Article 1,  Section 8,  Clauses 17  and 18 and
Article 4,  Section 3, Clause 2 of the U.S. Constitution;  that I
have  always   been  a   non-taxpayer  outside   the  venue   and
jurisdiction of  Title 26, United States Code;  that, to the best
of my knowledge, I have never had any "U.S. trade or business" as
defined in  Title 26  and in  26 C.F.R.;  that, to the best of my
knowledge, I  have never  had any  "gross income"  from any  U.S.
sources, as  the term  "gross income"  is defined  in  26  U.S.C.
872(a);  and further,

     34.  That my  use of  IRS Forms  1040X and  1040NR shall  be
presumed to  mean that  they were  filed solely  to  correct  the
administrative record  permanently,  retroactively  to  June  21,
1948, so as to claim any lawful refunds that may be due, to rebut
any  erroneous   presumptions  and/or   terminate  any  erroneous
elections of  U.S. "residence" which may have been established in
error by  the filing  of any prior IRS forms, schedules and other
statements by  mistakes resulting  in part  from the demonstrable
vagueness that is evident in Title 26 and its regulations, and by
mistakes  resulting   also  from   the  constructive   fraud  and
misrepresentation mentioned  throughout this  Affidavit;   that I
was neither  born nor  naturalized in the "United States", I have
never been  subject to  its jurisdiction, and I have never been a
"United States  citizen" as  defined in  26 C.F.R.  1.1-1 and  as
defined in the so-called 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution;
and further,


            Correspondence with State of California:
                          Page 13 of 24


     35.  That  I   am  not  now,  nor  have  I  ever  knowingly,
intentionally and  voluntarily, with  informed  consent,  entered
into  any   personal,  internal,  public  or  private  agreement,
contract, stipulation,  account or  similar contrivance  with the
"United States",  the "Federal  Government" or  the "District  of
Columbia",  its  territories,  its  agencies  or  other  property
appurtenant thereto,  which would  have altered  or waived  my de
jure, Sui  Juris status,  or  my  natural  unalienable  God-given
natural rights;   that any such agreement, contract, expressed or
implied, such  as a  Social Security  number and  application, or
Driver's License,  or Bank  Signature Card, or the use of Federal
Reserve Notes  (which are  not lawful Specie) etc., have all been
hereby revoked,  due to  the fraudulent  withholding of  material
facts, which  became a  snare and a trap and, as such, are a Bill
of Attainder  on this  free Sovereign  natural born  Citizen  and
inhabitant in the united States of America, for I cannot become a
nexus by  the effect of a fraudulent nexum, because my status and
unalienable  natural   rights  are   not  negotiable,   and   the
government, both State and Federal, has not proved that they ever
had jurisdiction  to change  my status,  as required  by Title  5
U.S.C.  Section   556(d),  or   as  defined  and  set  out  as  a
Constitutional requirement in Hagans v. Lavine, 415 U.S. 528, 533
(see also Brady v. United States, 397 U.S. 742 at 748);  that any
change of  status would  lawfully have  to take place in a Common
Law (judicial  power) court  under the  due process clause of the
5th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution;  and further,

     36.  That this  is to  certify that I, John E. Trumane, am a
free Sovereign  natural born Citizen and inhabitant in the united
States  of  America,  living  and  breathing  in  the  California
Republic, living  and working  in Marin  County, living under the
Common Law,  having assumed,  among the  powers of the Earth, the
Separate and  Equal Station  to which  the  Laws  of  Nature  and
Nature's God  entitles me,  in order  to secure  the Blessings of
Liberty to  Myself and  my Posterity,  and in order to re-acquire
the Birthright  that was  taken  from  me  by  fraud,  do  hereby
asseverate and  revoke all  feudatory contracts  with the Federal
government and  its agencies  and with  the  corporate  State  of
California and  its agencies,  for I,  John E.  Trumane, being of
sound mind  and body,  do not  choose, nor have I ever chosen, to
give up,  relinquish or  otherwise waive  any  of  my  God-given,
natural, Constitutionally secured rights;  and further,

     37.  That my use of the phrase "WITH EXPLICIT RESERVATION OF
ALL MY RIGHTS AND WITHOUT PREJUDICE UCC 1-207" above my signature
on this  document indicates  that I  have exercised  the "Remedy"
provided for  me in  the Uniform  Commercial Code  in Book  1  at
Section 207,  whereby I  have explicitly  reserved my  Common Law
right not  to be  compelled to  perform  under  any  contract  or
commercial agreement,  that I  have not  entered into  knowingly,
voluntarily, and  intentionally;  that my explicit reservation of
rights has  served notice  upon ALL  administrative  agencies  of
government, whether  international, national,  state,  or  local,
that I  do not, and will not accept the liability associated with
the "compelled"  benefit of any unrevealed commercial agreements;
and that  my valid  reservation of  rights has  preserved all  my
rights and  prevented the  loss of any such rights by application
of the concepts of waiver or estoppel.  And further,

     38.  That I  reserve my  unalienable  right  to  amend  this
Affidavit at  times and  places of  my own choosing, according as
new facts  and revelations  are made  available to  me at various
future times  and places  as  yet  unknown,  and  as  yet  to  be
determined, given  the massive  fiscal fraud  which has  now been
sufficiently revealed  to me  by  means  of  material  and  other
reliable   evidence    which   constitutes    satisfactory    and
incontrovertible proof  of the  fraud to  which I  refer in  this
paragraph and elsewhere in this Affidavit.

     39.  That I  affirm under  penalty  of  perjury,  under  the

March Fong Eu
Secretary of State
1230 "J" Street
Sacramento 95814/tdc
CALIFORNIA STATE

Dear Secretary Fong Eu:

Pursuant to  my recent  written correspondence  with Pete Wilson,
Governor of  the State  of California,  in which I documented the
fraud to  which the  State of  California  is  an  "accommodation
party" as  defined in the Uniform Commercial Code, you are hereby
noticed that  I now  exercise my  right, under American Law never
repealed, to  revoke my  signatures on  any and  all  statements,
documents, returns,  forms,  schedules,  licenses,  applications,
articles, contracts, certificates and/or commercial agreements to
which I  and the State of California may have been parties at any

                    FOREIGN STATUS AFFIDAVIT


CALIFORNIA STATE/REPUBLIC    )
                             )       Subscribed, Sworn and Sealed
MARIN COUNTY                 )


                            PREAMBLE

     The following Affidavit of Foreign Status is a public notice
to all  interested parties concerning the Affiant's "birthrights"
and his  "status" as  an "AMERICAN  INHABITANT", as  that  status
would  apply   with  respect  to  the  American  States  (the  50
independent States  of the  Union) and  also with  respect to the
"United States", as follows:

     1.   The Affiant,  John E.  Trumane, was born a Sovereign in
Massachusetts, which  is one of the sovereign States of the Union
of several  States joined  together to comprise the confederation
known as  the united  States of  America.   He is,  therefore,  a
"nonresident  alien"  individual  with  respect  to  the  "United
States", which entity obtains its exclusive legislative authority
and jurisdiction from Article 1, Section 8, Clause 17 and Article
4, Section  3, Clause 2 of the Constitution for the united States
of America.   The Affiant's parents were Sovereigns also, born in
sovereign States  of the  Union.   As the  progeny  of  Sovereign
people, the  Affiant was  born "...  one of  the sovereign people
....  A constituent member of the sovereignty synonymous with the
people.", Scott v. Sanford, 19 How. 404.  The Affiant is alien to
so-called 14th  Amendment "United  States" citizenship,  and also
nonresident to  so-called 14th  Amendment  State  residency,  and
therefore he is a "nonresident alien" with respect to both.  As a
Sovereign whose Citizenship originated in Massachusetts by birth,
and who  has remained  intact in  California since the year 1952,
the Affiant is also a foreigner (alien) with respect to the other
49 States  of the  Union and with respect to the "United States".
As a  consequence of  his birth,  the  Affiant  is  an  "American
Inhabitant";  and further,

     2.   The Affiant, to the best of his informed knowledge, has
not entered  into any  valid agreements of "voluntary servitude";
and further,


            Correspondence with State of California:
                          Page 19 of 24


     3.   The Affiant  is a  "NONRESIDENT ALIEN"  with respect to
the "United  States", as that term is defined and used within the
Internal Revenue  Code (Title  26, United  States Codes),  and/or
Title 27  U.S.C., and  with respect  to the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder as follows:

     The Internal Revenue Code, Title 26, and/or Title 27, United
States Codes,  and associated  federal regulations,  clearly  and
thoroughly make  provision for  Americans born  and living within
one of the 50 Sovereign States of America, to wit:


     Section 1.871-4  Proof of residence of aliens.

     (a)  Rules of  evidence.   The following  rules of  evidence
          shall govern  in determining  whether or  not an  alien
          within the United States has acquired residence therein
          for purposes of the income tax.

     (b)  Nonresidence presumed.   An  alien  by  reason  of  his
          alienage, is presumed to be a nonresident alien.

                                                 [26 CFR 1.871-4]

and further,

     4.   The Affiant  was not born or naturalized in the "United
States", consequently he is not a "citizen of the "United States"
nor a  "United States  citizen", as  those terms  are defined and
used within  the Internal  Revenue Code  (26  U.S.C.)  and/or  27
U.S.C. and  the rules  and  regulations  promulgated  thereunder;
and, therefore,  he is  not subject  to  the  limited,  exclusive
territorial  or  political  jurisdiction  and  authority  of  the
"United States" as defined.

     The "United  States" is  definitive  and  specific  when  it
defines one of its citizens, as follows:


     Section 1.1-1

     (c)  Who is  a citizen.  Every person born or naturalized in
          the United  States and subject to its jurisdiction is a
          citizen.
                                                [26 CFR 1.1-1(c)]

and further,

     5.   The Affiant is not a "citizen of the United States" nor
a "United  States citizen  living abroad",  as those  phrases are
defined and  used in the Internal Revenue Code (26 U.S.C.) and/or
27 U.S.C.  and the  rules and regulations promulgated thereunder;
and further,

     6.   The Affiant  is not  a "resident  alien residing within
the geographical boundaries of the United States", as that phrase
is defined  and used  in the  Internal Revenue  Code (26  U.S.C.)
and/or 27  U.S.C.  and  the  rules  and  regulations  promulgated
thereunder;  and further,

     7.   The  Affiant   is  not  a  "United  States  person",  a
"domestic  corporation",   "estate",  "trust",   "fiduciary"   or
"partnership" as  those terms  are defined  and used  within  the
Internal Revenue  Code (26 U.S.C.) and/or 27 U.S.C. and the rules
and regulations promulgated thereunder;  and further,


            Correspondence with State of California:
                          Page 20 of 24


     8.   The Affiant is not an "officer", "employee" or "elected
official" of  the  "United  States",  of  a  "State"  or  of  any
political subdivision  thereof, nor  of the District of Columbia,
nor of  any agency  or instrumentality  of one  or  more  of  the
foregoing, nor  an "officer" of a "United States corporation", as
those terms are defined and used within the Internal Revenue Code
(26 U.S.C.)  and/or 27  U.S.C.  and  the  rules  and  regulations
promulgated thereunder;  and further,

     9.   The Affiant receives no "income" or "wages with respect
to  employment"   from  any   sources  within   the   territorial
jurisdiction of  the "United States" and does not have an "office
or other fixed place of business" within the "United States" from
which the  Affiant derives  any "income"  or "wages"  as such, as
those terms  and phrases are used and defined within the Internal
Revenue Code  (26 U.S.C.)  and/or 27  U.S.C. and  the  rules  and
regulations promulgated thereunder;  and further,

     10.  The Affiant  has never  engaged in  the  conduct  of  a
"trade or  business" within  the "United  States", nor  does  the
Affiant receive  any income  or  other  remuneration  effectively
connected with  the conduct  of a  "trade or business" within the
"United States",  as those  terms are defined and used within the
Internal Revenue Code (26 U.S.C.) and 27 U.S.C. and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder;  and further,

     11.  The  Affiant  receives  no  "income",  "wages",  "self-
employment income"  or "other  remuneration" from  sources within
the "United  States", as  those terms are defined and used in the
Internal Revenue  Code (26 U.S.C.) and/or 27 U.S.C. and the rules
and regulations promulgated thereunder.  All remuneration paid to
the Affiant  is  for  services  rendered  outside  (without)  the
exclusive territorial, political and legislative jurisdiction and
authority of the "United States";  and further,

     12.  The Affiant  has never  had an  "office" or  "place  of
business" within  the "United States", as those terms are defined
and used  in the  Internal Revenue  Code (26  U.S.C.)  and/or  27
U.S.C. and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder;  and
further

     13.  The Affiant  has never been a "United States employer",
nor "employer",  nor "employee"  which also  includes but  is not
limited to  an "employee" and/or "employer" for a "United States"
"household", and/or  "agricultural" activity,  as those terms are
defined and  used in the Internal Revenue Code (26 U.S.C.) and/or
27 U.S.C.  and the  rules and regulations promulgated thereunder;
and further,

     14.  The Affiant  has never  been involved in any "commerce"
within the  territorial jurisdiction of the "United States" which
also includes  but is  not limited  to "alcohol",  "tobacco"  and
"firearms" and  Title 26, Subtitle D and E excises and privileged
occupations, as  those terms are defined and used in the Internal
Revenue Code  (26 U.S.C.)  and/or 27  U.S.C. and  the  rules  and
regulations promulgated thereunder;  and further,


            Correspondence with State of California:
                          Page 21 of 24


     15.  The  Affiant   has  never   been  a   "United   States"
"withholding agent"  as those  terms are  defined and used in the
Internal Revenue  Code (26 U.S.C.) and/or 27 U.S.C. and the rules
and regulations promulgated thereunder;  and further,

     16.  The Affiant  had no  liability for  any type,  kind  or
class of  Federal Income  Tax in  past  years,  and  was  and  is
entitled to  a full  and complete refund of any amounts withheld,
because any liability asserted and amounts withheld were premised
upon a  mutual mistake  of fact  regarding the  Affiant's status.
The Affiant  has never  knowingly, intentionally, and voluntarily
changed  his  Citizenship  status  nor  has  he  ever  knowingly,
intentionally,  and  voluntarily  elected  to  be  treated  as  a
"resident" of the "United States";  and further,

     17.  The Affiant, to the best of his current knowledge, owes
no "tax"  of any  type, class  or kind  to the "United States" as
those terms are defined and used in the Internal Revenue Code (26
U.S.C.)  and/or   27  U.S.C.   and  the   rules  and  regulations
promulgated thereunder;  and further,

     18.  The Affiant  anticipates no  liability  for  any  type,
class or  kind of federal income tax in the current year, because
the Affiant  does not intend to reside in the "United States", he
does not  intend to  be treated  as  either  a  "resident"  or  a
"citizen" of  the "United  States", he is not and does not intend
to be  involved in  the conduct of any "trade or business" within
the "United  States" or  receive any  "income"  or  "wages"  from
sources within  the "United  States", as  those terms are defined
and used  in the  Internal Revenue  Code (26  U.S.C.)  and/or  27
U.S.C. and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder;  and
further

     19.  The Affiant,  by means  of knowingly  intelligent  acts
done with  sufficient awareness of the relevant circumstances and
consequences (Brady  v. U.S.,  397 U.S. 742, 748) never agreed or
consented to  be given  a federal  Social Security  Number (SSN),
same said  as to  a federal  Employee Identification Number (EIN)
and, therefore,  waives and  releases from  liability the "United
States" and  any State of the Union of 50 States, for any present
or future  benefits that  the Affiant  may be  entitled to  claim
under the  Old-Age Survivors  and the  Disability Insurance  Act,
and/or the  Federal Unemployment  Tax Act.    Additionally,  your
Affiant makes  no claim  to any  present or future benefits under
any of the foregoing;  and

     20.  Therefore, I,  John E.  Trumane, am a natural born free
inhabitant and, as such, a Sovereign Citizen/Principal inhabiting
the California  Republic.  Therefore, I am not "within the United
States" but  lawfully I am "without the United States" (per Title
28, U.S.C.,  Section 1746, Subsection 1), and therefore I have no
standing capacity to sign any tax form which displays the perjury
clause pursuant  to Title  28, Section  1746, Subsection  2;  and
further

                          Page 22 of 24


     PLEASE NOTE WELL:   At no time will the Affiant construe any
of the  foregoing terms defined within the Internal Revenue Code,
Title 26  and/or Title  27, United States Codes, or within any of
the other  United States  Codes, in  a metaphorical  sense.  When
terms are  not words of art and are explicitly defined within the
Code and/or  within a  Statute, the  Affiant relies  at all times
upon the clear language of the terms as they are defined therein,
NO MORE and NO LESS:


     "... When  aid to  construction of  the meaning of words, as
     used in the statute, is available, there certainly can be no
     'rule of law' which forbids its use, however clear the words
     may appear on 'superficial examination' ...."

                 [United States v. American Trucking Association]
                                   [310 U.S. 534, 543,544 (1939)]


     This unsworn  certification is  being executed  WITHOUT  the
"United States",  pursuant to Section 1746(1) of Title 28, United
States Codes, Federal Rules of Civil Procedure:

     I affirm  under penalty  of perjury  under the  laws of  the
United States  of America  that I  executed the foregoing for the
purposes and  considerations herein  expressed, in  the  capacity
stated, and  that the  statements contained  herein are  true and
correct, to the best of my knowledge.
