ðåùà: [Cz-L] The Dutch Ambassador, the "Good Jews" and Consul Edmund
Luttinger
Czernowitzers...
When it came to the designation of the Dutch Consul in Czernowitz in 1928, a
snippet out of a letter of the Dutch Ambassador in Bucharest to the Minister
of Foreign Affairs in The Hague, dated November 17, 1927 reads as follows:
"Czernowitz remained what it was under Austrian rule: An almost entirely
Jewish town, but one with „good Jews“ according to the local authorities.
Out of six „potential candidates“ only Mr. Ballo, the Director of Banca
Romaneasca and Mr. Fischer - who of course is practically ineligible for
this position - are Christians. In my opinion there is no reason at all, why
in such a Jewish milieu a Jew should not been entrusted - similar to Galatz
- with the Dutch interests."
Well, Edmund Luttinger became in 1928 Dutch Consul in Czernowitz and
remained in office even after WW2. As you see, our ancestors were even
according to the Romanian authorities "good Jews"!
