A broad superconducting transition with an onset near 30 K is observed for La-Ba-Cu oxides in the measurement of magnetic susceptibility. The superconductivity is of bulk nature and reproducible after several heat cycles.

- To estimate the susceptibility, we used the mass density of LaCuO3, since the phase exhibiting superconductivity has not yet beem identified.
