In this letter, we observe that if the E(1440) is identified as a glueball with pseudoscalar quantum numbers then its decay width can be significantly large, about as broad as that of the ρ{variant} meson, if not more. However, the possiblity of a narrow width cannot be rigorously ruled out. We also examine the sensitivity of the decay widths to the off-shell corrections as well as to the sign of the intermediate coupling constants. © 1982.
