Emission of gravitational radiation is considered as a mechanism which could cause a secular change in the observed period of the binary pulsar PSR 1913+16. The effect of gravitational-wave emission on the binary period is estimated and shown to be unobservably small for the probable masses of the components (1.41 solar masses each). However, it is found that the effect should be observable in a system containing components of 15 and 2 solar masses.
