A tribute to the memory of Abraham J. Koffman, Detroit Jewish leader, was paid here at a special memorial meeting arranged by the Jewish National Fund Council. The assembly contributed a sum for the planting of a hundred trees in Palestine as a grove dedicated to the Zionist leader, who had served as president of the Zionist district and Jewish National Fund here. He was treasurer of the Fund at the time of his death.
