Dear Sir,
I write to acknowledge receipt of your letter of the 11th December last.
Mr.C.Carey Morgan, my predecessor in office made the distribution of the
one-fourth share of the residuary estate of the above deed among certain Jewish -
Charitable Institutions in Jerusalem. I have also made the distribution of another
one-fourth share among certain Jewish Charitable Institutions in Calcutta.
Owing to the prevalence of the war the Exchange Control Authorities
here have imposed certain restrictions upon remittances out of this country. In
view of this, I have not yet decided which of the Jewish Charitable Institutions in
Bagdad are most deserving. Besides it a very difficult task to select the most
deserving cases out of 32 applications received by this office from Jewish Chari-
table Institutions in Bagdad. This work of selection proves more difficult because
of the distance and meagre details of the sphere of activities supplied in some
cases. I shall be much obliged if you can render me any assistance in this matter.
Yours faithfully,

The same thing has been done for Jerusalem when a number of 13 ins-
titutions out of 114 institutions have been selected by a committee
composed of the Chief Rabbi and President of Jewish Community and reco-
mended to the Official Trustee who has approved the list and remitted
the money to the institutions through the said committee .
