Abstract

A claim of H. H. Teh on Archimedean full orders ((2), ‘only if’ of Theorem 2, p. 480) fails. His statement (p. 478, line 5) that the direct product of n copies of the additive rational numbers admits no full order of Archimedean rank more than n is proved without Hahn's embedding theorem. A few other remarks are made.
