Scientific paper

Spectrographic data have been obtained of O and B supergiants in the Magellanic Clouds at dispersions 12 and 25 A/mm in the blue and 25 and 50 A/mm in the red. Mass loss phenomena, line radial velocities, and line intensities have been measured on them and are compared with similar data on galactic stars. There appear to be some differences between the SMC, LMC, and the Galaxy in all these respects. Mass loss is clearly occurring in the Magellanic Cloud stars, and the SMC stars have particularly discrepant line intensities.
