To have reliable pulsar distances, we have used several natural requirements and distances of pulsar-calibrators. We have constructed dispersion measure-distance relations for pulsars in 48 different directions. KEY WORDS: PULSAR DISTANCES, ELECTRON DISTRIBU- TION, GALAXY 2 1 Introduction In this paper, our goal is to give dependence between the dispersion measure (DM) and distances (d) for radio pulsars (PSRs) in each different direction, similar to the dependence between AV and distance. Naturally, degree of ir- regularity in electron distribution in the G
