Pauli encloses a letter to Springer. He talks about a new paper by Schwinger on elementary particles. He writes on the logical connection of Källén's recent results to an example given by Jost last spring. He also talks about Thirring's model.

Pauli replies to Källén's letter of the 13 December 1957. Pauli agrees with him that the indefinite metric is the correct way. He talks about the macroscopic space-time description with complex roots and the Bisection of zero-states in parts corresponding to the upper and lower half-plane which must be connected with the difference between observed object and observing subject. By this bisection symmetric violations are introduced in a most natural way. He writes on his discussion with Heisenberg and on complex ghosts in weak interactions.

Pauli talks about the logical possibility of getting particles with mass different of zero in a world with $\gamma_{s}$-invariance and hints at another "unconventional" solution of the problem.

Pauli talks about the preliminary report on their joint work. Pauli does not believe anymore in many of the statements in this report. He has written to Heisenberg that the assumption of vacuum degeneration does not seem necessary to him. He writes about his talk with Gürsey in Brookhaven. Pauli expresses his optimism about the solution of the general formal questions, which have nothing to do with group theory. He believes that the symmetry violations do not depend on arbitrary terms in the Hamiltonian but on the metric in Hilbert-space.

Pauli asks Jordan to send his cosmological works to Prof. Lichnerowicz at Strasbourg. He writes about Jung's interest in parapsychology. He has a negative opinion about a book by an American psychologist, E White, on the "Unobstructed Universe".
