That year, Pope accepted a post as an Abstractor and Editor of Abstract Journals for the Research Association of British Rubber Manufacturers, leaving them in 1938 to work with Kodak as Journal Abstractor and Indexer at their Research Laboratories in Harrow, joining her longtime friend, Hamer (see above). She took a position as Research Librarian at the Distillers Research Department, Epsom, in 1944 — the same year she married Johannus Martinus Hulsken, a Chief Officer in the Dutch Merchant Navy. Pope continued working after marriage but in 1948, she resigned her position prior to the... 

Tobacco achieved great importance for the British Merchant Navy as a material for barter with the American colonies. At the time of the American Declaration of Independence, in 1776, tobacco cultivation had been extended to North Carolina, Kentucky, Tennessee, Ohio and Missouri. 

All 140 members of the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) reqnire a thermal protection aid (TPA) to be carried on board vessels as standard eqnipment in case of shipwreck and the thermal protection required is from cold, to prevent hypothermia. The spnnbonded polyolefin fibre fabric Tyvek , made by DnPont, when alnminised and made into survival suits and survival bags, satisfies the SOLAS criteria. These suits can also be used in Arctic emergencies. Thermal insnlation overalls made from Tyvek are also carried by many Merchant Navy ships and by several airlines flying the polar route in case the aircraft is forced down onto the Arctic ice. ... 

Safety measures to be taken on board ship must comply with international conventions adopted and put into force in the French merchant navy. They concern the 1974 SOLAS Convention for the Safety of Human Life at Sea (the establishment of an acceptable level of safety onboard ship), the MARPOL 73/78 Convention for the Prevention of Sea Pollution by Ships, and the 1972 Container Safety Convention (CSC). 

These reporting requirements relate to all employment except in a limited number of industries with special reporting arrangements, such as railways, the merchant navy, nuclear installations, the use of poisonous substances in agriculture and the use of radioactive substances.

Most ships are powered by thermal power plants, including diesel engines, gas turbines, and nuclear systems. Merchant ships usually have diesel engines, while gas turbines or a combination of diesel engines and gas turbines often power naval vessels. Some of the larger ships in the U.S. Navy have nuclear power plants. 

Wood is one of the oldest constructional materials. Historically it was important in world exploration and trade, and the defence of that trade, in the provision of merchant ships and navies. It was also important in the early days of railway engineering and in building construction. Although in many applications wood has been replaced by other materials, this renewable resource now supports the growing industries of manufactured wood products. Prominent amongst these are the panel materials chipboard, flake-board, strandboard, plywood and blockboard, hardboard and softboard, wood-cement products and the products of the very large pulp and paper industries. 

Documents we have show that the information admiral Tributs shared with me was true. Initially it was agreed that all CW discovered in East Germany would be scuttled in the Atlantic Ocean, 200 miles to the north-east of Faroe Islands, at the depth of 4 km. However, the Soviet merchant fleet was not ready to perform this extremely complicated transport expedition due to the absence of special vessels. Neither the Baltic Navy had cargo vessels for safe long-distance transportation of the chemical weapons. 

In fact, diphenylamine was already in use by Nobel and the Germans, and had been claimed by the Artillery and the Navy since 1896. But the case illustrated the situation of French military chemical research at the time of the Entente cordiale , and the Tangiers crisis — a situation characterised by the unshakeable pride of Berthelot and Vieille by rivalries among the laboratories of the Poudres, Artillerie, and Marine by the participation of the cannon merchants (which led Henry Le Chatelier to resign from the Commission) and by the demand for civilian scientists and laboratories. In a letter to Poincare in November 1907, Le Chatelier gave an illuminating account of the tensions he experienced ...
