Justice Arthur Klein,
Ex-N. Y. Congressman
NEW YORK (JTA)—State Su-
preme Court Justice Arthur G.
Klein died Feb. 20 at age 63. Judge
Klein served in Congress for 15
years and on the bench for 12.
He was elevated to the Supreme
Court of New York in 1956.
Justice Klein was born on New
York's lower East Side, the young-
est of eight children of Hungarian-
Jewish immigrants. He was an
Orthodox Jew throughout his life.
He graduated from New York
University Law School in 1926 and
became active in Tammany poli-
tics in his old neighborhood.
In 1934 he became a lawyer
for the Security and Exchange
Commision in Washington and was
first elected to Congress from his
home district in 1941. He was also
a partner in the Wall St. firm of
Klein, Wikler and Gottlieb from
which he resigned when he took
his seat on the State Supreme
Court.
Justice Klein's most famous de-
cision came in 1963 when he threw
out the state ban on the sale of
the book "Fanny Hill." He ruled
that the book was not obscene and
that the ban was unconstitutional.
His rule was upheld by the U.S.
Supreme Court.
