Pesach Yuditch, a Yiddish journalist well-known in left-wing and labor circles, died here yesterday at the age of 81. Born in the Ukraine, he came to the United States in 1909, was editor of the Neie Welt, organ of the Jewish Socialist Federation from 1914 to 1922, and later joined the staff of the Morning Freiheit, Communist-oriented Yiddish daily, as labor editor.
