Competition :for the Cotton Garment Industry. The amendment 

when submitted was presented to the L egal Division of the National 

Recovery Admini trati01.1 and received its approval. 

As the amendment was short and simple and consistent with the 

policies of the Administration, a Public I-Ieal'ing was considered not 

neces~ary and in li 0 u of the Public H earing, Notices of Opportunity 

to be Heard were printed and distributed in the same manner as the 

Notice of Public Hearing. A specified date was set forth in such 

notice by whi.ch time objections and criticisrn.s were to be received 

relative to the amendment. Up to and including the dates specified 

in such notice, no objections or criticisms were received.

Division and the report o:f the Consumers' Advisory Board and

of all the proceedings in this matter: 

I find that:

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

the National Industrial Recovery Act including the removal of obstructions to the free flow of interstate and foreign commercB which 

tend to diminish the amount thereof, and will provide for the general welfare by promoting the organization of industry for the purp ose of cooperative action among trade groups, by inducing and 

maintaining united action of labor and management nnder adequate 

governmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair competitive practices, by promoting the fullest possibls utilization of the 

present productive capacity of industries, by avoiding undue restriction of production ( except as may be tBmporarily required), by 

increasing the consumption of industrial and agricultural products 

through increasing purchasing power, by reducing and relieving 

unemployment, by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise 

rehabilitatin_g industry. 

(b) The Code as amended complies in all respects with the pertinent provisions of said Title of said Act, including without limitation Subsecton (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of Section 7, and 

Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof. 

(2) 
3 

( c) The Code empowers the Code Authority to present the aforesaid amendments on behalf of the industry a a whole. 

( 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. (f) Those engaged in other steps of the economic process have 

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

amendments. 

For these reasons, these amendments have been approved. 

Respectfully, 

AUGUST 21, 1934.
