Rome, 30 March 1939. Letter of dismissal received by Angelo Coen (1900-1963), employed by the National Bank of Agriculture (see Art. 13 of Decree-Law of 17 November 1938, in which it is forbidden for ‘Managers of banks of national interest’ to employ people belonging to the ‘Jewish race’). On 24 June 1944, shortly after Rome’s liberation, Angelo was called back into service by the same bank.
