  In a recent letter [Phys. Rev. Lett. 80, 5782 (1998)], Bruder and Imry
address the reentrance effect in proximity coupled normal-metal coated
superconducting cylinders discovered by Mota et al. and challenging theoretical
understanding to date. At stake is the explanation of a low-temperature
paramagnetic reentrance of order unity. The authors claim to find a
`significant paramagnetic effect' which they strongly relate to the layout and
findings of the experiment. Here, we show that the straightforward calculation
of the paramagnetic change in the susceptibility along the lines of their
analysis is by several orders of magnitude smaller than experimentally
observed.
