The polarizations of 45 sources have been measured at 6 cm wavelength and have been compared with values obtained at longer wavelengths. The resulting wavelength dependence has been studied in relation to the spectra of the sources. For the quasi. stellar objects in particular, polarization features at short wave� lengths are associated with the young components of the source which radiate at high frequency. However, it is not possible to distinguish between radio galaxies and quasi-stellar objects solely on the basis of polarization data.

It has been nearly 70 years since Dreyer completed his famous NGC and IC compendia of all the 13,000 non-stellar objects known in his time. Since then, the number of these objects known has increased by an order of magnitude, but this knowledge is scattered throughout the astronomical literature in such a way that it 1s nearly inaccessible from a practical standpoint to any individual.The present work is an amalgamation of all known catalogs of non-stellar objects, in a uniform, easily readable form. It is Intended not only for astronomers, but also for scientists and engineers in other fields who have need for rapid access to this basic reference data. The types of objects included are galaxies (including both normal and all specialized types such as interacting, peculiar, dwarf, Seyfert, etc.), clusters of galaxies, nebulae of all kinds (planetary, reflection, emission, absorption, etc.), blue objects, groups of stars (open and globular clusters, associations, rings, chains, etc.), quasi-stellar objects, super-novae and others. The Information given for each object includes name, 1950.0 position, angular diameter in arcseconds, magnitude, description, and original reference. A portion of the work is shown in Figure 1. Approximately 185,000 listings appear in the full master 11st.
