WHOM MOSES H. GULESIAN THREATENED WITH KIDNAPING SOME TIME AGO Newton, Feb. Moses Guleslan, 71, former millionaire Boston and Newton realtor, threatened with kidnaping more than a year ago, was reported missing today by his son-in-law, James L.

Beck of Newton Center, Beck said Guleslan had received no recent threats. He said he "did not know what to think" when asked if he suspected kidnaping. He said Gulesian attended a dinner of the sons of veterans in Boston last night and that his abandoned automobile was found In Boston later. Beck was summoned to the Guleslan home about 3 a. he said, and Mrs.

Oulestan informed him Gulesian had not returned. At the time of the alleged threat to kidnap in November 1933, Guleslan told investigators he was lured to an Albany, N. hotel by two men who said they wished to make a real estate deal. Sensing foul play, Guleslan refused to accompany them on an automobile trip to Philadelphia. A few weeks later Gulesian identified John M.

Mason, alias Gray, as one of the men Involved. Helped Save Historic Warship Gulesian, who came to the United States at the age of 17, endeared himself to millions of Americans in 1905 when the navy department decided to scrap the old battleship Constitution. Gulesian immediately wired the secretary of the navy an offer of $10,000 for the famed vessel and announced his intention to make a national shrine of the ship. When this was turned down, Guleslan ralsetl his offer to $15,000 bub failed to obtain the vessel. This action inaugurated the establishment by Guleslan and others of the "Old Ironsides" fund which raised through a nation-wide drive among school children and through congressional appropriation more than $600,000.

Years later the old battleship was restored, toured the country's ports and now lies in the Boston navy yards as a national shrine. A former theatre owner, Guleslan collaborated with his wife, to write "The Immigrant" which ran in Boston and for nine weeks on Broadway in 1925.
