Magistrate Fight
Intervention Planned
By Law Department
Will Support O'Conor's
Recess Appointment
Of Two in Calvert
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE. June 14-Attorney
General William c. Walsh said to-
day the State Law Department
would intervene as friends of the
court in supporting Gov. O'Conor S
recess appointment of two Calvert
County magistrates.
State Senator j. Wilmer Johnson
two weeks ago filed mandamus pro-
ceedings in Calvert Circuit Court
asking that William w. Duke, trial
magistrate at Prince Frederick. and
DR.. Clyde L. West, Chesapeake
Beach magistrate, be removed.
Gov. O'Conor named the men
two years ago in recess appoint
mentS.
A year ago Mr.. Duke and Mr.
West supported Howard w. Bruce
in his unsuccessful primary cam
paign to win the Democratic sena-
torial nomination from Senator
Radcliffe.
Protest Upheld.
Mr. johnson backed Senator
Radcliffe, and when the legislature
met this year, Gov. O'Conor sent
the recess appointments of Mr.
Duke and Mr.. West to the Senate
where. out of senatorial courtesy,
the members upheld Mr.. Johnson S
protest and rejected both.
Two substitute appointments were
made by Gov. O'Conor-Ramsay
Hodges in place of Mr.. Duke. and
D. Kern Robinson in place of Mr..
West. Mr.. Robinson was confirmed
but the Senate rejected Mr.. Hodges.
Later, Mr.. Robinson notified the
Governor he could not serve and
Gov. O'Conor renamed Mr.. Duke
and Mr., West in new recess appoint
ments.
Due to Reach Appeals Court
Regardless of the Circuit Court s
action, the case is expected to reach
the Court of Appeals on the consti-
tutional question of whether the
Governor has the power in such un-
usual cases to make appointments
of the same persons once rejected
by the Senate.
The Attorney General, declaring
his office would contend the appoint
ments are valid, bases his opinion
on the fact that appointment of
Mr.. Hodges and Mr.. Robinson in
tervened between the rejection of
Mr.. West and Mr.. Duke and their
second appointment.
