REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT 

The PREsiDENT, 

The White House. 

Srn: The Code Authority for the Dress Manufacturing Industry 

submitted a proposed amendment to the Code of Fair Competition 

for the Dress Manufacturing Industry. A Public Hearing was held 

on this amendment on October 9, 1934, and every person who requested a hearing was fairly heard in accordance with regulations of 

the National Recovery Administration. 

This amendment amends Article VI, Section 2 (d), of the Code by 

r evising the first paragraph and adding two new paragraphs thereto. 

The addition of these two paragraphs (1) grants the Code Authority 

and/ or the National Industrial Recovery Board the authority to require members of the Industry to keep such necessary records as may 

be required by the Code Authority andjor the N atiorial Industrial 

Recovery Board, such plans and forms of operation to be proposed by 

the Code Authority subject to the disapproval of theN ational Industrial Recovery Board, and (2) provides that falsifying such records 

and/ or reports or withholding information which shall be required 

as therein provided shall be a violation of the Code. 

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 purposes 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 

present productive capacity of industries, by avoiding 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 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 sub-section (a) of Section 3, sub-section (a) of Section 7 and 

sub-section (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. 

(2) 
3 

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

and will not eliminat 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 

amendment. 

For these reasons this amendment has been approved. 

For the National Industrial Recovery Board: 

JANUARY 23, 1935.
