The publication appears to be a circular or newsletter for a group, indicated by 'BREVCIRKELN' and 'MEDLEMSBLAD' (members' newsletter).
Book Service Announcements
A significant section is dedicated to announcements from the "BOKTJÄNSTEN" (Book Service). New postal regulations are being implemented from the start of the year, affecting the dispatch of printed matter, including books. These regulations are described as 'stricter' and have caused some concern. To address the issue of informing borrowers about return dates, Yngve will now include a loose almanac page with each loaned book, as any other form of annotation is prohibited. The library has received numerous book and periodical donations throughout the year, and a supplementary list is promised soon. The library is experiencing a high lending frequency, with up to sixty dispatches per week. A special thank you is extended to Mrs. Carin Blake from Aptos, USA, for a valuable donation received just before New Year's.

Article: Is the Driving Method of Flying Saucers Already Discovered?
The main article of this issue speculates on the propulsion systems of unidentified flying objects (UFOs). It suggests that revolutionary discoveries are being made worldwide in secret, potentially enabling humanity to soon overcome gravity and achieve speeds beyond light. The article references recent space exploration, specifically mentioning astronauts Edward White and possibly cosmonaut Alexej Leonov, who reportedly found ways to move in space without propulsion systems like recoil pistols or tethers, seemingly defying known laws of physics.
This discovery is presented as a challenge to established scientific understanding, questioning whether centuries of scientific calculations might be based on flawed or misunderstood laws. The article posits that figures like Kepler and Newton may have understood the correct principles, but this knowledge was lost to later researchers. It suggests that as humanity ventures into space, these forgotten principles are being rediscovered.
The article further explores the implications of overcoming gravity, stating that it could lead to propulsion systems capable of moving at any speed, from stationary to faster-than-light, and potentially enabling travel to other solar systems. If the speed of light barrier can be surpassed, time would lose its significance.
This discussion touches upon Einstein's theory of relativity and the paradox of time dilation at high speeds. However, the article introduces alternative theories that suggest there are no absolute limits, and that time itself might be a human construct, with only motion being real.
The article concludes by quoting scientists who believe that if flying saucers exist, they must operate according to this newly proposed system.
The content of this article is attributed to Eugen Semitjov's articles in Aftonbladet on January 6th and 7th, 1966.
