therefor pro-vi ion which provide that cash discounts on supplies

on furniture and equipment shall not exceed five per cent ( 5%). 

The provisions also provide that members of the Trade may not extend credit to customers whose accounts are overdue more than ninety 

(90) clays, and set up machinery for the filing of delinquent accounts 

with the Divisional Code Authority or the Regional Committees and 

for the dissemination of such information. 

This Supplementary Code has been amended by striking out Subsection (f) of Section 1, of Article V, and inserting a provision 

which states in effect that all merchandise shaH be sold f. o. b. city

provision which provides that not less than twenty-five per cent

amendment to said Supplementary Code having found as herein set 

forth and on the basis of all the proceedings in this matter; 

The Board finds that:

and purposes of Title I of the National Industnal 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 

(2) 
3 

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 Supplementary 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 Supplementary Code as amended August 31, 1934, empowers the Divisional Code Authority for the Beauty and Barber 

Equipment and Supplies Trade to present the aforesaid amendment 

on behalf of the Trade as a whole. 

(d) The amendment. and the Supplementary Code as amended are 

not designed to and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic 

practices. 

(e) The amendment and the Supplementary 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 the approval of 

this amendment to the Supplementary Code. 

For these reasons this amendment to the above-named Supplementary Code has been approved.
