The chemical composition of cosmic ray nuclei above 1.3 GeV per nucleus and 23 GeV per nucleusMeasurements made with a balloon-borne counter telescope are reported. The telescope was flown from Palestine, Tex., during the fall of 1971 for a total of 10 hours under an average residual atmospheric depth of 4.4 g per sq cm. The data analysis indicates that the integral flux ratios above 1.3 GeV per nucleus and 23 GeV per nucleus are consistent with energy independence.
