Heisenberg comments on the latest results on showers and talks about possible reasons for the high penetrability of cosmic radiation and calculations on wave-quantization. He writes against the cut-off-method and gives an introduction to the universal length in a new operator. The question remains whether this can lead to a relativistic and convergent theory.

Bhabha's and Heitler's assumptions confirm Heisenberg's idea of the necessity for introducing a universal length. He writes about difficulties in the interpretation of cosmic radiation experiments with the Yukawa theory.

Heisenberg thinks, after receipt of Yukawa's paper, that his Hamiltonian is better than that of Kemmer or Bhabha. He writes on the Beta-instability of the yukon. He sends Pauli a short paper on the limitations of quantum mechanics and asks for his comments.

Heisenberg agrees with Pauli that one cannot make the S-matrix alone a starting point of a quantized field theory. There is discussion of other possible presuppositions.
