The PRESIDENT, 

The White House. 

SIR: This is a report on an amendment to the Code of Fair Competition for the Hair Cloth ~Ianufacturing Industry. Notice of 

Opportunity to be Heard on this amendment was published on 

August 25, 1934; no objections were received within the given fifteen

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.

(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. 

(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. 

Respectfully,
