For any class of rings it is shown that the class (M) of all rings each nonzero homomorphic image of which contains either a nonzero -ideal or an essential ideal is a radical class. If is a class of simple rings the upper radical generated by , (M), is shown to be equal to (M) where ' is the class of simple rings complementary to .
