Funeral services were held here yesterday for Louis B. Boudin, prominent labor lawyer and authority on constitutional law who was for 15 years chairman of the board of the American ORT. Mr. Boudin, who was 78, had been ill for a long time. He edited the ORT Economic Review for many years and also served on the central board of the World ORT.
Mr. Boudin retired from the chairmanship of the ORT in 1948 because of ill-health but continued active in the organization’s work for another year. He was widely known as a writer on legal, economic and political subjects and was the author of a two-volume study, “Government by Judiciary.”
