Quantization Conditions for Regge Intercepts and Hadron Masses

We show that a reasonable generalization of the beta-function formula to the reaction $\pi +A\to B+C$, combined with Adler's self-consistency condition, implies that trajectories of opposite "normality" that can be connected by pion emission must have the same slope, and that their intercepts must differ by a half-odd integer. The agreement with experiment seems very good.
