Abstract
Admissibility properties of the M.L.E. for the parameters of $m$ independent binomial distributions (when these parameters are known to be ordered) are determined for certain convex loss functions. It is shown that, except in two special cases, the M.L.E. is inadmissible whenever the total sample size is 7 or more.
