Thirty-four Jewish charities will benefit from the will of Morris Meiselman who left an estate of $750,000 of which $179,000 will be distributed to the various charitable organizations devoted to Jewish interests. Mr. Meiselman, who came to this country as an immigrant, states in his will: “My estate represents the hard work and savings of a life-time, and as it will not be my good fortune to leave any descendant, I desire in this way to leave behind a record of my earthly existence.”
