In a recent letter [Phys. Rev. Lett. {bold 72}, 3238 (1994)], Overend {ital et al.} have shown for YBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7} that three-dimensional (3D) XY scaling holds for applied fields less than 10 T, whereas, lowest Landau level scaling does not hold in their samples. The validity of the 3D XY scaling for different 3D superconductors is yet to be tested. For this purpose, we analyze the specific-heat data of Buan {ital et al.} for LuBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7}. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}
