White was Oliver's problem. and the unions in the 1950's that really hit Oliver and Studebacker. Stude never recovered and the Oliver family wasn't really replacing themselves either (there are no Olivers left. just the Cunninghams) so i think the family wanted out of the business dealings and White was there to pick it up.
