[Cz-L] Latest about the plaque

In my initial correspondence with the city administration of Chernivtsi,
I made a mistake in that I once wrote them that Traian Popovici issued
15000 permits and at another time wrote that he had issued 20 000. They
understandably wanted the information to be accurate. I asked Radu Ioanid,
at the Holocaust museum to write to them and give them the accurate
information. He could not do so himself, being on travel, but asked

Mr. Vadim Altskan of the International Archival Programs Division
                     Center for Advanced Holocaust Studies
to write to Chernivtsi instead.

Mr. Altskan has now written to Chernivtsi, explaining that Traian Popovici
initially issued 4000 temporary permits, later was able to arrange for the
distribution of another 15600 authorizations signed by Calotescu as well as
for the exchange of the Popovici permits for Calutescu permits.
It follows that the accurate number is 19600 and that is the number which
will be inscribed on the plaque.
