These are all the specific suggestions made by members of the list
for the wording of the inscription.

 From Hardy:

----------------------------------------

If I missed anyone's suggestion, please forgive me
and send it to the list today.

I would like us to vote on which of the suggested inscriptions
should be used. I think that we should do so by May 18th,
after which I will get the agreed upon inscription translated
into Ukrainian and Romanian, make a model design
of the complete inscription and send it Josef Zissels.
He will be in Chernivtsi at the end of May - beginning of June
and at that time will obtain cost estimates.

Please vote by choosing one of the suggested inscriptions and
send your votes to Berti, Gabrielle, Hardy and me by May 18th.
I have not asked Berti, Gabrielle and Hardy whether they are willing
to receive the votes, but hope they do not mind. Bruce Reisch
suggested the votes should not be sent to the whole list
and my mailbox frequently becomes overfilled, so it is safer
to do it this way.
