information.

the piers. His vessel was unloaded by a floating crane which vas moved a:aogside

it bad no difficulty working tts cargo of his vessel; namely, peanuts and pea utl
oil. It was painted orange or perhaps yellow and sewed to be it good operating
condition.

details which could be recalled about this Polish ship was that it was a very large
freighter.

the 8ina-Soviet agreement about 1952.
