Let R be a free associative ring with identity freely generated by r1, r2,. .. , rk. In analogy to group theory the lower central series for R is defined inductively Byγo = R and γn = [γn-1, R],where γn is the ideal generated by the indicated ring commutators. Using P. Hall's collection process [2; 1, Chapter 11] γn/γn+1 will be shown to be free as a Z-module and as an R/R''-module for each non-negative integer n. In each case a basis will be exhibited. Definition 1. Commutators of order zero are the free generators of R. A commutator, c, of order n (denoted by o(c) = n) is of the form [x, y], where x and y are commutators and o(x) + o(y) = n — 1.
