In the February issue of this journal, Bunch1 gave a number of charts showing a comparison of the results of acuity tests of hearing taken by two different types of audiometer. These types were the 1-A audiometer, manufactured by the Western Electric Company, and the pitch range audiometer, developed at the State University of Iowa. They were called the "A" and "B" audiometers, respectively, a designation which will also be used in this paper.

For this purpose, a set of calibration curves has been deduced from the results published by
