[Cz-L]Re: Ghetto perimeter fence

Prin spatele cartierului diviziei means :"through the backside of the
 division quarter." Spate is back.
Hardy

Hello Iosif, Hello All,

I have now compared the Romanian text of the ghetto directive a copy of
which was obtained by Leo from the microfilms in the US Holocaust Memorial
Museum, with the German text, from the Gold book, and its English
translation, sent to us by Iosif and have come to the conclusion that some
terms in the Romanian version, have probably been incorrectly translated,
into English.

For instance, where it says in Romanian: "trece prin spatele cartierului
deviziei", the German says: "durch das Viertel der Division verlauft"
and in English: "through the Division Quarter"

I think that the correct translation is:

"goes from the space (location) of the quarters of the division (meaning the
location where the military division is staying).

In some cases I do not know the location of buildings or streets which are
mentioned in the Romanian order. Or I am unable to find them on the 1941
Stadtplan.
Do any of you know where the following are:

Str. Pocutiei
Str. Anton Silvestru
Str. Elena Doamna
Str. Wickenhauser
Str. Vorobchevici
Liceul si Conservatorul on the str. Prezan
Comendatura Politei

When I left Czernowitz in 1945, I did not know Romanian, I knew the street
names only in German and police headquarters, military division quarters and
the like did not interest me.

Thanks for any help,

Mimi
