During the last several years IUE observations of UV spectra of galactic and extragalactic H II regions have provided the first good quantitative measurements of gaseous-phase C abundances in the ISM of several galaxies over a broad range of "metallicity". This paper illustrates the observed relative variations of C, N, and O based on IUE and ground-based observations of H II regions and discusses the trends evident using current concepts regarding stellar nucleosynthesis of CNO element group and simple models of galactic chemical evolution.
