Dear Friends,

If you go to the effort of creating a petition to ask Yad Vashem to accept
all the documents of Jacob Drucker's lists, then you are assuming that the
owner of those documents, Mr. Drucker's daughter, is willing to donate
them. She is not going to do that. The Druckers were very badly hurt by
Yad Vashem's refusal the first time. There is no chance they are going to
try to donate again to Yad Vashem. If the Holocaust Museum in Washington,
D.C., will accept them, and Mr. Drucker's daughter is willing to donate
them to the US Holocaust Memorial Museum, then that is where they will go.
 Please remember that it's her decision.

I think she is touched by the great interest that has developed in her
father's lists. But they are still in her possession and we have to trust
she will do what is best.

Bruce
