The velocity dispersions and U-V distributions of Roman's (1950, 1952) four spectroscopic groups (weak CN, weak line, strong line, and 4150) are compared with those of groups based only on Fe/H ratio. It is shown that the velocity-dispersion gradient for the Roman spectroscopic groups is greater than for the comparison group for all three velocity components and for the mean orbital eccentricity, with a clearly defined minimum for the strong-line stars and a sharp upturn for the 4150 stars. The results suggest that the Roman's assignment to distinct spectroscopic groups results in more homogeneous groups than the binning on the basis of metallicity.
