However, there were indications Studebaker would continue car production in Canada and market the cars in tiie United States. The company is not dead. Studebaker iccently has lost money on its automotive operation but 12 other divisions are operating at a profit, company sources said. They will continue. President Byers A. Burlingame and top company officials were in New York today for a board meeting. The executives met in South Bend with United Auto Workers Union officials over the weekend to discuss the fate of about 5,000 workers who will lose their jobs as a result of the move. Burlingame was expected to announce the demise of Studebaker’s auto operation Tuesday. The company has a rich transportation history that traces its roots all the way to covered wagon days. Burlingame was unavailable for comment in New York as were other top executives in South Bend. However, reliable sources here said the announcement would be made in New York Tuesday. The demise of Studebaker will reduce to four the number of major auto firms General Motors, Ford, Chrysler and American Motors. The automotive division of the company has been a money loser since 1959. That was its best year when it got the jump on the industry with a compact car and the corporation earned $28.5 mil-

lion.

However. Burlingame, in his first statement of policy since taking over the company, said early this month the other 12 divisions of the highly diversified corporation are operating at a profit this year. Studebaker finished 1960-61-62 in the black but the automotive division operated at a loss. Last j*ear, Studebaker posted earnings of $2.56 million on sales of $365.45 million. During the first nine months of the current year, sales totaled $302.6 million, up from $250.9 million during the same period last year. However, net losses for the first nine months of the year totaled $9.83 million compared with $4 49 million for the same period last year. In his first statement of policy. Burlingame announced stringent economy measures to lower the break-even point of the division. Included was the layoff of more than 2,000 employees, curtailment of bidding on defense contracts, beefing up the field sales force and cost reductions in all phases of Studebaker home office operation. Burlingame then indicated more layoffs were pending. Since 1961 the Corporation has received about $200 million in military contracts, mostly for trucks. The firm still has to make deliveries on some of the contracts. Studebaker merged with the Packard Motor Car Co. in 1954 when the automotive Big Three -—General Motors. Ford and Chrysler—became too successful for some smaller companies. Studebaker of Canada, Ltd., operates an automotive plant in Hamilton, Ont. It has a work force of about 725 employees and
