The common carotid arteries were clamped in the dogs, whose epinephrine secretion was measured by means of the method of Satake and others. No anaesthesia was used; the dog was not fastened. The observation extended for 1-2.5 hours after clamping. The clamping caused blood pressure elevation, but did not bring about any alteration in the epinephrine output rate from the supraren-als nor any change in the blood sugar concentration.
