Studebakers Off
Assembly Line
By Early October

The removal of wartime produc-
ton controls and the cancellation
Of military contracts will enable
The Studebaker Corporation to re-
sumo passenger car production early
in October and to attain higher
levels of manufacture in the final
quarter of this year than has been
authorized, K. B. Elliott, vice pres
ident in charge of sales for the
company, stated today.
Initially, Studebaker's entire pas
senger car production will be con-
centrated on the Champion, the
companyS offering in the lowest
price field, Elliott disclosed.
Now that our military contracts
have been cancelled We can accel-
crate our Champion production pro-
gram" he said. The Champion en-
CINE was used to power the Stude-
baker military personnel and cargo
carrier known as the Weasel. AS a
result, the Champion engine line
remained intact throughout the war
and its output now can be diverted
exclusively to civilian use.
Production facilities for our
higher priced models, on the other
hand, had to be dismantled in order
to provide war production facilities
quickly. Consequently, manufacture
of our higher priced models will be
resumed somewhat later as it must
await the Encouragement of facili-
ties and the procurement and de-
livery Of new machines and equip
ment."
The 1916 Champion, Studebaker's
first postwar offering, will be dis
tinctively new in appearance and
will feature improved riding quail
ties, Elliott said. 1t will be offered
in four body Styles-two-door and
four-door sedans and two coupe
modelS-and in a wide variety Of
colors.
