A large portion of the inner galactic plane has been mapped in the far-infrared (C II) line using a balloon-borne survey instrument. Complete coverage is reported from 25 degrees north to 80 degrees south of the galactic center and extending a few degrees on each side of the plane. Effective resolution is 14.1 acrmin (FWHM) and contour levels begin at 2 E -5 ergs/(s x sq. cm x ster). When compared with 100 micron dust emission observed by IRAS the (C II) appears well correlated with the dust emission except for a 10 degree region centered on the galactic center where emission from the gas is much weaker than that from the dust.
