Pauli offers detailed comments on Jauch's calculations.

Pauli expresses his interest in the work of Hu and Lopes and gives advice on how to treat the problem in the case that a strict solution of the equations should be impossible. He comments on offprints he got from Switzerland.

Pauli writes about offprints to be sent to certain adresses in Europe. He comments on Lopes' dissertation and gives some advice about the proper personal contact with elder colleagues.

Pauli writes more about his offprints.

Pauli mentions "artificial" mesons created by accelerators and the possibility of their identity with cosmic ray mesons. He gives some comments on Jauch's work. He writes that Anisotropy of scattering cannot be explained by Delta-function.

Pauli writes about his renouncing the partnership with Heisenberg. He thinks there are mistakes in Heisenberg's integration of his equation. Further, if one attempts to loosen either the causality or the unitarity of the metric, this leads to disastrous results in relativistic theories. His impression is that one has to wait for new physical ideas, because mathematical virtuosity alone cannot lead to the discovery of new laws of nature.

Pauli takes an interest in Jauch's scientific development and hopes to find a position for him. He writes of his own work with Fierz. He hopes to succeed in getting rid of the spinor-calculus.

Pauli urges Jauch to take his final examination so that he could come to Zürich if Fierz goes to Basel.

Pauli discusses technicalities of Jauch's possible trip to Switzerland next spring. He writes of his own work on a theory of particles with arbitrary spin. He suggests that Jauch should study meson theory.

Pauli hopes that in spite of all the difficulties caused by the war, Jauch will accept the position as assistant in Zürich.
