JOSEPH J. GWIRTSMAN

The consequences of centering attention upon a material are several. Interests become broader than simply chemical, and relations are more complicated than mere combinations of chemistry with another discipline; many disciplines other than chemistry may be more or less concerned. Activities may begin with locating the material; proceed through various stages of processing, transportation, and use: and end with disposal. Although applications are a pertinent aspect, so also are fundamentals, so that the distinction from disciplinal interests is not as simple as that between applied and pure chemistry. Perhaps the key consequence is the emphasis upon rapid progress in a narrow direction, rather than thoroughness in a broad one. Emphasis upon rapid progress is the reason for the prevalence of preprinting within the Divisions of the third group. Started more than 40 years ago in one Division, preprinting has now extended to half. I t may expand further among Divisions of the third group, but has less reason to be adopted by the disciplinal Divisions of the first two groups. A further limit t o the expansion of the practice of preprinting is the ever-rising cost of reproducing and distributing scientific information. Papers that are preprinted, then published in a formal journal, must go through the process twice. The obvious answer is to formally publish the papers before presentation to gain the advantage of preprinting, and t o not do so afterward. At present, the regulations of most scientific societies prohibit that sequence. These regulations were designed to protect disciplinal interest, however, and may not meet the needs of materials-centered Divisions of the ACS. How much emphasis the ACS as a whole should devote to publication in the fields of interest of the materials

group is a question that deserves close study. Not more than 3 5 of the nearly 100,000 members of the ACS belong to any of these Divisions. All members of the materials Divisions have an interest in the disciplinal groups, but the reverse is not true. A possible answer is t o delegate to the interested Divisions the responsibility for administering all publication-informal or formal-in the materials fields. Formal journals in the materials fields might well be designed to cover the interests of more than one Division. Agriculture and Food Chemistry now encompasses the interests of two Divisions. The fields of fuel and petroleum have much in common. Cellulose and wood share some areas with carbohydrates, as do polymers with plastics. Only the field of water and waste lacks a present close companion among the materials Divisions. A journal administered jointly by two or more Divisions might well seem foredoomed to jurisdictional difficulties. One or another would have t o assume the bulk of the responsibility. However, the existence of a good publication medium is such a powerful influence that the initiation of appropriate journals could even promote realignment of Divisional boundaries. Present journals of the ACS thus cover the interests of most Divisions squarely, but provide for the needs of some only indirectly. Perhaps as few as four materials-oriented journals would fill today's needs, provided the preprint features were retained, and regulations against presentation of published materials were modified. Administration of these new journals by Divisions would retain them within the framework of the ACS, a desirable circumstance that has not been entirely possible in either the branch fields of chemistry or in the overlapping fields of chemistry and other disciplines.

Abbreviations in Russian Abstract Journals Covering Chemistry and Related Fields By JOSEPH J. GWIRTSMAN Chemical Abstracts Service, The O h i o State University Columbus 10, O h i a Received M a r c h 13, 1961

The Soviet abstract journals, known as the Referatiunyi Zhurnal ( R Z h ) series, make frequent use of various types of abbreviations. These involve geographical names, bibliographical designations, sources of patents, common words, dimensions, units, symbols, special terms, etc. Their interpretation is given in supplements to instructions to abstractors and editors' of the RZh which are not readily available. Some short and incomplete lists can be found scattered in various RZh issues.' Special abbreviations of words in names of journals are listed in the Index of Abbreviated and Complete Titles of the Scientific and Technical Journals3 covered by the RZh. A general survey of abbreviations in Russian chemical literature has been published earlier.' The list given here includes the most important abbre-

viations used in the series Khimiya, Biologicheskaya Khimiya, Fizika, Metallurgiya, Biologiya, and Geologiya. These abstract journals are considered of importance in the evaluation of completeness of coverage of the Russian chemical literature in Chemical Abstracts.' The list consists of the Russian (Cyrillic) abbreviations arranged alphabetically, the complete Russian (Cyrillic) versions of abbreviated expressions, and their English equivalents. Abbreviations entirely unrelated to the field of chemistry and abbreviations of Soviet institutions have been omitted. It is hoped that this list of abbreviations will be a useful tool not only for the reader of the RZh but for users of many primary scientific and technical Russian journals as well.
