Regarding the Journal Ball Bearing 13 x 37 x 9 m/m called for on the above I.O.P., this is an odd size and not listed by any of the Makers, perhaps RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} will use one of the 12 x 37 x 9 m/m (Hoffmann's No. 4198) by boring out the Inner Race to 13 m/m.{Mr Moon / Mr Moore} RHO. will remember that Ball Bearing No. 4198 was ordered for use with the Bendix Drive suitable for the sample motors which have been made up by outside firms.

Regarding D.{John DeLooze - Company Secretary} 50324 Armature Shaft we have shewn the knurling .031 pitch, if however, RHO. finds that knurling to some other size produces a better job, will he kindly let us know and we will alter the drawing accordingly.
