In the paper "Neutron Star Magnetic Field Evolution, Crust Movement, and Glitches" by Malvin Ruderman, Tianhua Zhu, and Kaiyou Chen (ApJ, 492, 267 [1998]), the following corrections should be made: Four lines below equation (24), "with v_phi still the same as that of the Vela" should be replaced by "with each vortex line-flux-tube intersection force still the same as that in Vela." Just after equation (25), "as long as 3 - n is less than 1, but 3 - n = 1 otherwise" should be inserted. There is no change in Table 1. The authors also note that a new analysis of observations of the period history of PSR 0540-69 gives a most probable spin-down index n = 2.5 (S. Eikenberg, G. Fazio, and S. Ransom, ApJ, 492, 754 [1998]), which removes the major discrepancy between the observed and model spin-down indices and makes the remarks about it below equation (25) no longer relevant.
