Re: [Cz-L] Daily life in Czernowitz

  The Toynbeehalle is jewish propriety.
    The Adventists pay rent for it. (US money ,I figure).
      This money should go to the Jews.
        So ,the rent for the Alte Shil , where they store "windows and
doors".
          Money to pay for cleaning the Zwinter.
