The problem of stationary energy eigenstates of relativistic spin 1/2- particles in external potentials exceeding twice the particles rest mass (Klein's paradox) was investigated, neglecting the interaction of the particles with the radiation field. This corresponded to the H 0 of the "bound state interaction representation'' in quantum electrodynamics. For simplicity, explicit calculations are based on a one dimensional square well potential. In potentials of this type which vanish at infinity and which do not become critically singular nt the origin there always exists a stationary ground state of fixed total charge. Though this state cannot be attributed to a sharp number of particles, no real paradox occurs.
