The 0.35% carbon steel specimens with crack, whose diameter is 50 mm, were made, and some of them were induction-hardened. The results of comparative tests on them show that the fatigue limit, which is only about 6 kg/mm^2 in case of no heat treatment, rises nearly to 40kg/mm^2 through induction-hardening. These induction-hardened specimens were rather overheated, so that the rapid heating effect could not be expected, nevertheless their fatigue limit did not remarkably fall. This is presumably due to the residual compressive stress on the surface of specimens. Strain gages were set across the crack and strain variations were measured under both compression and tension loads, respectively. When it is suspected that residual compressive stress is present, the strain is approximately equal under either load, but, when it is not, the strain becomes much larger under tension load. Such phenomenon must originate from the fact that strain at the tip of crack becomes smaller, due to the existence of residual compressive stress and seems to explain one of the main reasons for the increased fatigue limit in the above mentiones results.
