Abstract
The authors empirically based contention that there exists an integral mass system for the principal baryons and the electron is put into a theoretical framework. This framework predicts a neutrally charged lepton which must correspond to the neutrino, generates very accurate base masses for the major leptons, mesons, and baryons and extremely accurate mass splitting for the principal octet of baryons. In addition, it predicts a totally new class of super heavy particles the lightest of which would have a mass greater than 38 GeV.
