Throughout this paper, a space means a T1-space. A space is called fully normal if every open covering of it has a Δ-refinement , that is, an open covering for which the stars (x, ) form a covering which refines . A space is called paracompact if every open covering of it has a locally finite (= neighborhood finite) open covering which refines . It is well known that paracompactness is identical with full normality in a Hausdorff space ([3], [7]).
