The conditions for the cancellation of the Weyl and Lorentz anomalies in the two-dimensional chiral supergravities are analyzed. Three anomaly-free theories which have a two-dimensional supersymmetry N = 1/2,N = 1/sub +//sub +/, and N = 3/2/sub +//sub +//sub -/ and which correspond to the string theories with critical dimensions D = 10 (heterotic string), D = 2, and D = 2, respectively, are found to exist.
