The reduction in the prices OF
Studebaker cars came as a complete
surprise to me, said P. G. Spinning
local distributor of Studebaker cars
referring to the official announce
nent recently made by A. r. Ers
kline, president of the Studebaker
corporation.
In taking this action the Stude-
baker corporation was the first guam.
tity producer of quality automobiles
to effect a reduction in prices OF its
product. When one stops to consider
that Studebaker is the third largest
manufacturer Of motor cars in the
world, and for that matter, one OF
the worlds greatest Industrial in
stitutions, it's action in the way of
price reduction may be accepted as
indicative of real desire to mater

living conditions back to something
more nearly approaching a normal
basis.
"As President Erskine has so apt
ly remarked, 1t is highly desirable
that the lowering of prices be en-
couraged at this time and in reduc-
ing the prices of its product, Stude-
baker is anticipating its ability to
buy raw materials at lower prices
next year and to increase its labor
efficiency"
without cheapening the quality
of its product in any manner and at
the same time maintaining it's pres
ent wage scale, it has, in my esttma
tion, taken real courage to announce
price reductions.
Labor, too, is showing a splendid
to help in making it pos
sfble for the manufacturer to make
these reductions, but its increased T

a factor of greatest Importance if
we are to bring prices back to
lower level without further loss of
