Abstract
The Scholz conjecture on addition chains states that for all integers where stands for the minimal length of all addition chains for . It is proven to hold for infinite sets of integers. In this paper, we will prove that the conjecture still holds for . It is the first set of integers given by Thurber \cite{9} to prove that there are an infinity of integers satisfying . Later on, Thurber \cite{4} give a second set of integers with the same properties (). We will prove that the conjecture holds for them as well.
