In this paper we are concerned with power series of the type

which admit unique analytic extension onto a domain containing the negative real axis. Our primary object is to establish a general theorem giving a lower estimate for the number of different zeros of (1) on the negative real axis. W. Jurkat and A. Peyerimhoff showed that for a certain class of coefficient functions a(z) the number of negative zeros of (1) is closely related to the behaviour of a(z) at z = 0. In particular they proved the following theorem [4, p. 219, Theorem 4].
