Investigations of proper motions of faint stars generally are concerned with either of two problems: the distribution of the peculiar motions of the stars, or the mean parallax of certain groups of stars. In both kinds of investigations the knowledge of absolute proper motions is of fundamental importance. The present paper deals with some of the actual problems.
