REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT 

The PRESIDENT, 

The White H oU8e. 

Sm : This is a report on the Hearing on the Amendm_ents to the 

Code of Fair Competition for the Underwear and Allied Products 

Manufacturing Industry, held in the Oak Room of the Raleigh Hotel 

Washington, D.C., January 19, 1934. The Amendments, which are 

attached, were presented by duly qualified and authorized representatives of the Industry, complying with statutory requirements and 

being the same agency that originally submitted the Code. 

In accordance with customary .procedure every person who had 

filed a request for an appearance was freely heard in public, and 

all statutory and regulatory requirements were complied with. 

PROVISIONS OF THE Al\IENDl\fENTS 

There are two amendments as follows: 

1. An amendment providing that production data returns be reported every month instead of eYery four weeks. 

2. An amendment specifying that all per ons engaged in the Industry assenting to and complying with the provi ions of the Code 

shall pay their pro rata share of administering the Code. 

FINDINGS 

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said amendments to said Code having found a · herein et forth and on the basis 

o~ all the pro2eedings in this matter: 

I find that: 

(a) The amendment· to aid Code and the Code as amended are 

well designed to promote the policies and purposes of Title I of the 

National Industrial Recovery Act including the remo1al of obstructions to the free flow of interstate and foreign commerce which tend 

to diminish the amount thereof and will provide for the general welfare by promoting the organization of industry for the purpose of 

cooperative action among trade groups, by inducing and maintaining 

united action of labor and management under adequate governmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair competitive 

practices, by promoting the :fullest possible utilization of the present 

productive capacity of industries, by aYoiding undue restriction of 

production (except as may be temporarily required), by increasing 

the consumption of industrial and agricultural products through 

increasing purchasing power, by reducing and relieving unemploy-

~nen~, by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise rehabilitatIng Industry. 

(b) The Code as amended complies in all respects with the pertinent provi ion of said Title of aid Act, including without limita-

(2) 
3 

tion Subsection (a) of Section 3, Sub.ertjon (a) of Section 7, and 

Sub ection (b) of Section 10 thereof. 

(c) The Underwear Institute was and i an indn trial a sociat.ion 

truly representative of the aforesaid Industrv and that said association imposed and imposes no inequitable restrictions on admission 

to membership therein and has applied for or ron. ents to these 

amendments. 

(d) The amendments and the Code as amended are not designed 

to and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices. 

(e) The amendments and the Code as amended are not designed to 

and will not eliminate or oppress small enterprises and will not 

operate to discriminate against them. 

(£) Those, engaged in other steps of the economic process have 

not been deprived of the right to be heard prior to approval of said 

amen<lments. 

For these reasons these amendments have been approved. 

Respectfully, 

MABCH 16, 1934.
