In my paper “ Bases for finite fields ”, published in this Journal , 43 (1968), 21–39, I overlooked the fact that the existence of a primitive normal basis for a finite field [ p n ], when p n is sufficiently large, had already been proved by L. Carlitz, Trans. American Math. Soc. , 73 (1952), 373–382.
