The intensity ratio of the continuum to the molecular emissions was estimated in the spectra of eight-five comets. Four conclusions are drawn: (1) There is no readily apparent difference in continuum to emission intensity ratio between new and more evolved comets; (2) an intrinsic distribution of this characteristic does occur; (3) periodic comets with weak continua are derived from new comets with the same property; and (4) no weakening of the continuum in general occurs following perihelion passage. The infrared evidence for comet Encke suggests that the faintness of its continuum may be caused by a size distribution containing only particles larger than about 10 um.
