REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT 

The PRESIDENT, 

The White House. 

Srn: An application has been duly made pursuant to and in full 

compliance with the provisions of the National Industrial Recovery 

Act, for an Amendment to the Code of Fair Competition for the 

'Vire, Rod, and Tube Die Industry, submitted by the Code Authority 

for the said Industry. 

The existing provision of Article VI, Section 4 of the Code for said 

Industry, is entirely inadequate in view of Executive Order 6678 and 

Administrative Order X-36, and it is therefore evident that the proposed amendment to Article VI of said Code, the provisions of which 

follow closely the text of the above mentioned Orders, will overcome 

the existing inadequate provisions. 

FINDINGS 

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to the National 

Industrial Recovery Board on said amendment to said Code having 

found as herein set forth and on the basis of all the proceedings in 

this matter : 

The 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 rem_o val 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 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 

rehabilitatin<Y industry. 

(b) The C'ode 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 amendment and the Code as amended are not designed 

to and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices. 

(2) 
3 

(d) 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. 

(e) 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, therefore, the National Industrial Recovery 

Board has approved this amendment. 

Respectfully, 

O cTOBER 6, 1934.
