Some simple inequalities which demonstrate the incompatibility of local realism with quantum theory are derived. They establish, for the first time, necessary conditions for violation of the generalized spin-{ital s} Bell inequalities for a set of three distinct {ital noncoplanar} axes. For {ital s}=1/2, however, these inequalities are equivalent to Wigner's results, thus giving necessary and {ital sufficient} conditions.
