A. H. Stone (9), E. Michael (3, 4), J. L. Kelley and J. S. Griff en (2) have established many necessary and sufficient conditions that a regular Hausdorff space be paracompact. It is the purpose of this note to show that if the word “countable” is inserted in the appropriate places in the above-mentioned conditions they become, in general, necessary and sufficient conditions that a normal space be countably paracompact.
