This paper reports an attempt to derive large scale characteristics of the neighboring galactic absorption layer using the data of the two Basle catalogs of galactic star clusters. Applying a least square procedure to the 101 clusters which lie within 1000 pc of the sun, the 'thickness' of the galactic absorption layer has been found to vary strongly as a function of galactic longitude. The large amount of interstellar matter is strongly correlated with the distribution of the extreme population I galactic star clusters and H II regions.
