1. Almost all the people (including my parents and me) in the "Cariera" were
deported in July 1942 from the "Macabbiplatz" because their Popovici
authorizations were annulled by Calutescu - fact.
2. My second grade cousin Dora Thornschein (born 1908) came to Czernowitz in
1941 from Lemberg (to where her family moved from Suczawa) with the hope to
move on to Chile or the USA. She was among the first deported to
Transnistria where she perished - fact.

Yosef...
Thank you very much for your remark. In order to integrate it into the
historical context of summer 1942, let me quote a paragraph from Svitlana
Frunchak's dissertation "THE MAKING OF SOVIET CHERNIVTSI" (to be released as
"Book of the Month, January 2016 at our Czernowitz Book Corner):
"The chaos that arose around authorizations for exemption from deportations
also frustrated Romanian central authorities who were against them in the
first place. Later in the fall of 1941, Calotescu organized a special
commission to investigate the process of exemptions. As a result, a number
of authorizations were annulled and their holders deported. After the fall
commission, a new set of authorizations to stay in the city (around 5,000)
was signed by Popovici. In June of 1942, Popovici was fired from the mayor�s
position and the entire second wave of authorizations (the so-called
�Popovici�s authorizations�), were annulled by the Romanian government. The
deportations resumed, and, according to Romanian statistics, 4,790 Jews were
sent to Transnistria between June and September of 1942, and many more later
on during the war. Vladimir Solonari estimates that in February 1942 there
were still more than 21,000 Jews in Chernivtsi; in the summer of 1942 when
deportation resumed, 11,000 Jews were deported from the city. Chernivtsi
became a place of survival for more than 800 Polish Jews who had fled Poland
at the beginning of the German occupation in 1939 and chose to go to
Chernivtsi, whether because they had relatives in the city or simply because
they knew about the size and influence of the local Jewish community. A
consul of Chile in Chernivtsi, Degozh Shymanovich, saved many Jews by
issuing Chilean passports to them and assisting in their emigration until
his activity was uncovered and the consulate liquidated by Romanian
authorities."
