The ratio of total to selective absorbtion, R, has been found to remain constant as dust is processed in clouds from low to high density, through H II regions and open clusters, and returned to the interstellar medium. R has the same value in dense dust clouds as it has in H II regions of different ages. Variations in R values obtained from stars in H II regions may be due to errors in special type classification. Globular cluster diameters show no tendency to increase with distance from the sun when R equals 3.2 is used. Large grains evidently do not exist in the interstellar medium. There is no evidence for neutral extinction in the Galaxy at large.
