GOLDSTEIN DESCRIBES JASENOVAC SECTION OF WAR SURVEY AS THOROUGH

( Editorial: --> 0745 ) ZAGREB, 30 April (Hina)- In an interview for the Zagreb daily, Vjesnik, Zagreb based author and former head of the local Jewish community, Slavko Goldstein, described the study "War Casualties, 1941-1954, the 1964 Survey" as "thorough in its discussion of the victims of the WWII concentration camp Jasenovac". The survey determined the number of "identified" camp victims as 60,000, Goldstein says. Based on his own information, Goldstein assesses the number of Jasenovac camp victims at about 80,000. Croatia and the international public should be informed about that assessment, as well as about another, which sets the total number of victims of WWII in the former Yugoslavia at 600,000, because they are relevanst and can be proved, Goldstein thinks. Goldstein sticks by his assessment of 80,000 victims, allowing for an error margin of five per cent. Similar assessments had been made earlier by Croatian demographer Vladimir Zerjavic and Bosnian Serb Bogoljub Kocovic, who made it based on his insight into Italian and German archives. Croatian State Archives recently offered the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia Archives money to supply it with a copy of the study, "Victims of the war, 1941-1945, the 1964 Survey". The offer was turned down, with an explanation that the study "was not comprehensive and as such cannot meet Croatia's expectations". The extensive study does not account for victims in the Gypsy community, although entire Gypsy families were taken away from their homes and executed. Namely, Gypsies were never thoroughly registered in Yugoslav census' between the twe world wars. Goldstein claims that he saw copy of a form that was filled out by families of the victims. The form comprised 27 precise and analytical questions about the victims. (Hina) jn mr/mrb 302055 MET apr 98
