 drift was no greater than for most substances. 



Runs were made at only three temperatures, 0°, 50°, and 100°. 

 I hoped at the time that a purer sample would be available and 

 intended this run for orienting purposes, but the purer sample has 

 not yet been successfully prepared.

 from linearity are given as fractions of the resistance at kg. and 0°C. Since 

 the deviations are symmetrical about the mean pressure, there is no need of 

 giving the detailed deviation curves. The pressure coefficient is the average 

 coefl&cient between and 12000 kg.
