The finite temperature QCD phase transition is studied on the lattice withdegenerate two flavors of Wilson quarks. Motivated by reported strangebehaviors with the standard action on lattices with the temporal extention$N_t=4$ and 6, a renormalization group improved gauge action is applied. On an$N_t=4$ lattice, the strange behaviors observed with the standard action areremoved with our improved action. The finite temperature transition iscontinuous in the chiral limit and it becomes quite smooth in all observableswe studied when we increase the quark mass by increasing $\beta$ along thecrossover line.Comment: uuencoded compressed PS file, 13 pages, 5 figures.
