in Office until his successor has been
named and the appointment confirmed
by the senate, which is so strongly La
Toilette in complexion that it is not
likely to confirm any appointment by
the governor if by so doing Mr. Ekern
will be unable to continue in office.
SoIons Dazed Over Affair.
Governor McGovern's position re-
mains unchanged He says he never
bluffs" It is said to be his intention
to permit Ekern to continue as insur-
ance commissioner for few days and
then forcibly remove him from office
if such course is necessary.
It is little wonder that with such
situation attracting the close atten-
ton of the state, that the members of
the legislature are dazed over the af-
fair. Little thought has been given
to the work of the session. Everybody
is discussing the McGovern-Ekern con-
troversy, which for personal bitterness
and factional Importance rivals con
tests of those years in which Senator
La Toilette was struggling with a
powerful opposition in this state.
The legislature opened with a polit-
ical crash which was not considered
on the program until it actually oc
Cured. Eight minutes before neon on
the day that the legislature met, Gov
ernor McGovern, after a hearing Of
less than three hours, served notice
on State Insurance Commissioner Elk
ern that he Mr. Ekern) was dismissed
from office for violation Of law which
according to the governors interpre-
tation, provides that the insurance
commissioner shall devote his full
time to the office and shall not take
an active part in politics. Governor
McGovern charged that Mr.. Ekern vic.
lated this law when he rented rooms
in Madison hotel which were to be
used as headquarters for L. T. John
son, considered one CT the leading La
Toilette candidates fer speaker of the
assembly.

taken up by personal clashes between
