Abstract: In a written correspondence with A. Livingston, ErdH{o}s conjectured that for any arithmetical function $f$, periodic with period $q$, taking values in $-1,1$ when $qmidn$ and $f(n)=0$ when $qmidn$, the series $su{m}_{n=1}^{infty}f(n)/n$ does not vanish. This conjecture is still open in the case $$ or when $2phi(q)+1leqq$. In this paper, we obtain the characteristic function of the limiting distribution of $L(k,f)$ for any positive integer $k$ and ErdH{o}s function $f$ with the same parity as $k$. Moreover, we show that the ErdH{o}s conjecture is true with "probability" one.
