Democrat, dumped the gun" today
and upset precedent hv taking the
oath Of office before the legislature

It was the first time in the history
of South Dakota that governor had
qualified before the legislature con-
vcned. Governor Bulow took the
oath before Supreme Court Justice
s. G. Policy, in the presence Of sew
eral witnesses.
Governor Bulow, informally an
nouncing that he had assumed the
reigns Of office. said he had done so
because Of "rrliabIe information
that retiring Governor Gunderson
contemplated appointment Of some Of
the men with whom | shall have to
work during the coming administra-
tion."
To this the retiring governor re-
piled that he "had no appointments
In mind for today or tomorrow and
l regret that Mr.. Bulow felt it neccs-
sary to take such q step. In my
opinion, it would have been better
had he conferred with me before TAX
ing any action"
Instead Of waiting for the meeting
Of the legislature tomorrow. when
precedent dictates his inauguration
Governor Bulow took advantage Of
the state law which provides the gov
ernor "shall quality and enter upon
his duties on the first Monday in
January"
