Abstract
SUMMARY A Monte Carlo investigation of 2 X n tables with fixed marginals has been performed. The results of the Monte Carlo distribution show that the probability of Type I error given by the conventional x2 test is in general conservative for 5 or more degrees of freedom even when expectations of successes are very small in each

In section 1 a general method for evaluating 6 is given and in section 2 the results of some of the well-known tests for randomness performed on digits generated by this multiplicative congruence method are shown.

It was found that intra-male heterogeneity was generally lower with "late" mating than with "normal" mating, and the mean square contingency was used as an index to measure the degree of heterogeneity.
