REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT 

The PRESIDENT, 

The White House. 

Srn: This is a report on a modification of the Supplementary Code 

of Fair Competition :for. the Painting, Paperhanging and Decorating Division of the Construction Industry which was approved by 

you on February 17, 1934. 

The effect of this amendment will enable the Code Authority to 

submit a budget and basis of assessment and give it the power to 

institute legal proceedings, if necessary, for the collection of said 

as essments. . The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said modification of said Code having found as herein set forth and on the 

basis of all the proceedings in this matter: 

I find that: 

(a) The modification of said Code and the Code as Modified 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 1 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 modified 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) o:f Section 7 and 

sub-section (b) of Section 10 thereof. 

( c) The modification and the Code as modified are not designed to 

and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices. 

( d) The modification and the Code as modified 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 proces have not 

been deprived of the right to be heard prior to approval of said 

modification. 

For the e reason this modification has been approved. 

Respectfully, 

JULY 10, 1934.
