REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT 

The PRESIDENT, 

The White House. 

SIR: An amendment to the Code of Fair Competition for the 

Corset and Brassiere Industry approved August 14, 1933, was proposed by the Code Authority for this Industry. A Notice of Opportunity to be Heard on the proposed amendment was published March 

12, 1935. One objection was received and was duly considered. 

Article 9, Section ( t), of the Code provides that all garments 

manufactured or distributed shall bear N. R. A. labels. This Section 

also sets forth certain regulations concerning the issuance and use 

of such labels. The amendment proposed is a sentence to be added 

to the first paragraph of this Section, and provides that the charge 

for labels by the Code Authority shall~ at all times, be subject to the 

approval of the National Industrial Recovery Board. 

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to this Board on 

said amendment to said Code having found as herein set forth and 

on the basis of all proceedings in this matter : 

The National Industrial Recovery Board finds that: 

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

well designed to promote the policies and ~urposes of Title I of 

the National Industrial Recovery Act including the removal 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 of labor and management under adequate governmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair 

competitive practices, by promoting the fullest possible utilization 

of the ~resent productive capacity of industries, by avoiding undue 

restrictiOn of production (except as may be temporarily required), 

by increasing the consumptiqn of industrial and agricultural products through increasing purchasing power, by reducing and relieving unemployment, by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise rehabilitating industry. 

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

Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof. 

(c) The Code empowers the Code Authority to present the aforesaid amendment on behalf of the Industry as a whole. 

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

to and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices. 

(e) The amendment 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. 

(2) 
3 

(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 

amendment. 

For these reasons, this amendment has been approved.
