The object of this paper is to discuss the conjecture, which will be abbreviated (E), that every complete local ring of dimension n possesses a finitely generated module of depth n. It is noted that several conjectures which have been open for some time follow from (E), and the connection of (E) with Serre's conjecture on multiplicities over regular local rings is discussed. In fact Serre's conjecture is proved for dimension ≤ 4 using the ideas under consideration.
