Abstract :
In the above paper 
Davisson and Leon-Garcia prove a result equating the minimax redundancy for universal codes to a channel capacity that is computable by standard techniques. They point out that the result had been developed earlier in unpublished work by Gallager. I would like to point out an alternative development of this result and to compare this work with that of Davisson and Leon-Garcia.
