    George E. MacKinnon Born: April 22, 1906, in St. Paul, Minnesota Died: May 1, 1995, in Potomac, Maryland __________ On April 26, 1985, a ceremony was held in the United States Court- house in Washington, D. C., for the unveiling of a portrait of Judge George Edward MacKinnon, who had served on the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit since May 1969. As is customary on these occasions, the speakers, who included former Governor Harold Stassen, District Court Judge Edward Devitt and Chief Justice Warren Burger, reminisced about MacKinnon’s pre-court experiences. From these anecdotes it may be concluded that he was superbly prepared for the many important public law issues that were to come before his court. MacKinnon received his LL.B. from the University of Minnesota Law School in 1929, was admitted to the bar, and became employed as assistant counsel at Investors Syndicate in Minneapolis. He was elected, as a Republican, to represent the 29th District of the Minnesota House of Representatives in 1934, reelected three times, and left office in 1942. While in the state house, he authored the 1936 Old Age Assistance Law, the 1939 Reorganization Act and the 1939 Civil Service Act. During the war, he served in the Navy. In 1946, he was elected to represent the Third District in the U. S. House of Representatives, defeating Democrat Roy W. Wier. 1 It was during this term that he became 1 Results of the election for congress on November 5, 1946: George E. MacKinnon (Rep).....57,397 Roy W.

  • Interview with Karl Rolvaag
    Interview with Karl Rolvaag Interviewed by Mark Haidet December 11, 1978 MH: Today is December 11, 1978. This is Mark Haidet interviewing former Minnesota governor Karl Rolvaag in Deer River. Mr. Rolvaag, I think that an appropriate place to begin would be with a brief description of your family background and your early life in Minnesota. KR: Well, Mark, my father was a college professor at St. Olaf College in Northfield, Minnesota. He was, by all reports that I get, a rather distinguished professorRolvaag of Norwegian language and literature and a special scholar in the area of the dramatistF. Henrik Ibsen. I still run into people who studied under him. He was also a novelist of significance; wrote in his native Norwegian language. He emigrated, incidentally, to the United States when he was 20 or 21 years of age. He never felt at home in the EnglishKarl language to the degree that he could write easily. He said he always thought in Norwegian. Society Northfield was a small community and St. Olaf College was at that time a rather small college. I graduated from Northfield public schoolwith system and started St. Olaf College in 1931. My father died that fall. I left home and came back in the fall semester of 1932. I then left home again and came back and graduated in 1941, receiving my diploma in one hand and my greetings from the President in the other. I entered military service through Selective Service in 1941. I don't know whatHistorical else you want to know about the early years.
