The subpoena shall be served in the manner as if issued from a circuit court unless otherwise provided. In case a person refuses to obey any subpoena issued hereunder or to testify with respect to any matter concerning which he may be lawfully interrogated, the commissioner or his representative may invoke the aid of any circuit court in order that the testimony or evidence be produced.

A person failing to obey such order may be punished by such court as for contempt.
