Abstract
A SYSTEMATIC search for linear polarization of radio sources has been carried out at this Observatory at three frequencies and several antenna separations. A detailed discussion of the results obtained awaits further analysis and will be published elsewhere. However, the measurements made during September 1962 at a wave-length of 21 cm have been completely analysed. The preliminary results have been reported previously1.
