Numerous extensive studies of the space distribution of stars of different spectral types, based on star counts and colour measures, have in the past been published for different sections of the Milky Way.1 These studies have given information on the nearby obscuring clouds, and they have revealed marked differences between the distribution of different kinds of stars. They have not, however, given us the much desired insight into the large-scale features of the density distribution.
