"Phantom II" Starter Motor.

With reference to Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst8/KT.18-8-32, we have now issued a 29-slot armature for this motor, and we confirm that we agreed that the pole does not want to be smaller but larger, and that the experiment for the time being should be confined to the new armature, before we attempt larger section field winding.
