STUDEBAKER AT
REDUCED PRICE
Radical Reductions Affect
Every Car in the Line
Quality Maintained

pWOOpAh6 pliSc IeuuCLlOHS rang
ing up to $3.50 are announced by
The Studebaker Corporation of Am
erica an the most beautiful, power
feel and durable line of Studebak-
ers yet produced.
The Mathis Motor Co., local rep
resentatives of the Studebaker. call
attention to the fact that the new
prices are the result of years of
preparation and are possible be-
cause The Studebaker Corporation
has consistently re-invested mil
lions of earnings in economic ex-
pansion. Coupled with this pro-
duction accomplishment, brilliant
engineering has played an import
ant part in the development of what
are properly considered the finest
Studebaker cars ever offered to the
motoring public.
The radical reductions announc-
ed affect every car in the line and
bring it to a new level of value.
1t was emphasized particularly that
in establishing these new low pri-
ces there has been no curtailment
in the accessories which are stan
dard on Studebaker production.
The Studebaker policy is to sell its
cars ready for the road with more
than 500 worth of extras without.
extra cost All models, it was sta
ted, will continue to be equipped
with front and rear bumpers; shock
absorbers; thief-proof coincidental
lock to ignition. steering wheel and
spare tire lock; engine thermome-
ter and hydrostatic gasoline gauge
in the dash; rear vision mirror;
automatic wind shield cleaner: rear
traffic signal light; two-beam acorn
headlights and other equally impor-
tant accessories.
The most generous reduction of
all affects the President sedan, that
has acquired marked favor with
American executives in whose hon
or it was named. This passenger
sedan model is reduced from $2245
to $685.. while the, prices of the
President tourer and President Linn
CUISINE were lowered to s1795 and
$2250 respectively,
In the popular Commander line.
reductions ranging from s29 to $50
are in effect. The 4-door sedan,
leader in this group, drops from
$685. to s1495; the sedan Regal
from $1710 to $1625; the Victoria
(4-passenger) from $1575 to $1495;
the Victoria Regal from $1645 to
s1625; coupe from $1545 to $1495;
coupe Regal from $I645 to $1625;
Roadster (4-passenger) from $1675
to 1886.
Value is more than ever the key
note of the new Dictator line where
the .4door Dictator sedan plush
upholstery is reduced from $1245
to s1195; the sedan (mohair uphol-
stery) from 1885 to $1295; Victo-
ria from 1925 to s12s5; coupe e.
passenger) from $1345 to $1295; A.
passenger roadster from 1925 to
$1245.
This announcement of reduced
prices on Studebaker models fol-
lows closely upon the recent sched-
ule of new prices for the Erskine

winter wheat.
Some buying of corn against sales
of wheat tended to rally corn prices
from an early downturn. Country
sales of corn to arrive were the small
est in some time, and the shipping
sales here the largest. Favorable con-
ditions existed for rapid curing of
corn, but husking returns from Illinois
and Indiana were below expectations
Oats were firmer, receipts being light
Provisions turned weaker, with hogs,
and on selling ascribed to packers.
