ZUM4903642: Jan. 01, 1954 - Preparing to drop envelopes into the sea admiralty take part in oil Pollution research: As a contribution to the campaign against the pollution of the beaches by oil residue jettisoned by ships, 10,000 plastic envelopes are to be dropped by aircraft of Coastal Command over a radius of approx 500 miles from the Bay of Biscay to a point half way between the Hebrides and Iceland. The envelopes are expected to drift ashore in time and the finders are asked to complete the enclosed cards and send them to the National Institute of Oceanography, nr. Godalming, Surrey. Each card carries an award of 2/6d, and is printed in eight different languages. The cards are numbered and the date and position at which each was dropped will be recorded. It will thus be possible to work out the approx speed and directions of the currents which will give a lead as to the direction taken by oil dropped from ships at various points. Instructions on the cards are printed in eight different languages. 2,000 are to be sent out in early Spring Autumn and Winter while 4,000 will be dropped in Early Summer / Bridgeman Images
