Thus far we have dealt with the special data only. 

 The less trustworthy R.F.F. give larger values of b in 

 every case. An epitome of all the results appears in 

 the following table : 



The data used in the four methods are somewhat 

 different. In (1) I could not deal with small Fraterni-
