He resigned from Congress to take a position on the bench of the Allegheny County Court of Common Pleas and rose to the rank of President Judge of that court in He was responsible for reforming and modernizing the court system before retiring in Henry Ellenbogen was born April 3, 1900 in Vienna, Austria. He attended the Real Gymnasium in Vienna and the Royal-Imperial University of Vienna Law School before coming to the United States in 1921, settling in the Squirrel Hill area of Pittsburgh. He worked as an accountant at Kaufmann s Department store during the day and attended Duquesne University Law School at night. He received the Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Laws in Ellenbogen passed the Pennsylvania Bar Association in 1924, achieving the highest marks ever received until that time. As a lawyer, Ellenbogen was quite liberal for his time. He defended the interests of labor against corporate abuse and represented clients accused of communistic activities. He also acted as counselor for a number of labor unions in the Pittsburgh area. In 1932, Ellenbogen ran for the 33 rd Congressional District seat of the United States House of Representatives on the Democratic ticket. He drew wide support among the laboring class for his work in defending the rights of the workingman and was elected to a two-year term in Congress on November 8, He was re-elected to Congress in 1934 on both the Democratic and Republican tickets. Ellenbogen went on to win another term in the House of Representatives in He conducted a weekly radio program, in which he informed listeners of proposed legislation and of Congressional and governmental activity in Washington. As a member of Congress, he sponsored and co-sponsored legislation designed to help the laboring class and the poor. This legislation included a resolution to establish a pension system, which was a forerunner for Social Security; the Home Owners Loan Corporation Act (HOLC), which provided funds to replace dilapidated and unsafe housing with new housing and created low interest loans for home-buyers; numerous resolutions to study unemployment and implement solutions; and numerous bills to assist veterans. Ellenbogen resigned from Congress in January 1938 to assume a position as a judge of the Allegheny County Court of Common Pleas, to which he had been elected in November 1937 for a ten-year term. He presided over civil and criminal cases. He handled precedent-setting cases in which his decision became law. During World War Two, Judge Ellenbogen served on the Price Control Board and the National War Labor Board. He determined wages and working conditions for most of the leading steel companies, such as U.S. Steel, Jones and Laughlin and Crucible Steel. He was re-elected in 1947, 1957 and again in 1967.

2 Henry Ellenbogen Papers, page 2 Judge Ellenbogen may be best remembered in the Pittsburgh region for his efforts in reforming the Court of Common Pleas. When he took over as President Judge and court administrator in 1963, the backlog of untried cases totaled almost eight thousand. By 1965, that number had been reduced to fewer than five thousand, the lowest it had been since His reforms in the court included the addition of twenty judges; modernization of court management and installation of computers; and cutting the vacation time of judges from two months to one month. The modernization of the court and cutting the backlog of cases were a major concern to Judge Ellenbogen. He studied the subjects and compared the legal systems used internationally. His studies resulted in a series of articles and lectures to various groups. He was also interested in how other countries dealt with problems that were currently plaguing the court systems in America. He was actively involved in the fight against drug abuse and was part of a delegation sent to the United Nations Commission on Narcotics, which was held in Geneva, Switzerland in During his tenure as President Judge and court administrator, other judges, officeholders and newspapers criticized Judge Ellenbogen, accusing him of taking credit for many plans that were not of his authorship alone. His control of the court system angered fellow judges and he resigned as court administrator in Despite the criticism, he was recognized for improving and modernizing the court system. His retirement on January 2, 1978 was not by his choice but by a state statute that required all judges older than seventy to retire at the end of their term. He moved to Miami, Florida, in 1980, where he died on July 4, He was buried in the West View Cemetery of Rodef Shalom Congregation, in Pittsburgh. Among Ellenbogen s many affiliations were the Masons, Moose, Eagles, Elks and the Islam Grotto. His activities in the Jewish community included the Zionist Organization of America, acting as president of the Pittsburgh Chapter of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem Association and acting as president of the Pittsburgh and Tri-State Council of the Jewish National Fund. Henry Ellenbogen married Rae Savage on December 18, They had two daughters together, Naomi and Judith. Mrs. Ellenbogen passed away on January 19, Judge Ellenbogen had two brothers, Joseph and Theodore. Joseph was a partner in the accounting firm of Crawford and Ellenbogen in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
