REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT 

The PRESIDENT, 

The White House. 

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

compliance with the provisions of the National Industrial Recovery 

Act for an amendment of Article VI of the Code of Fair Competition for the Collapsible Tube Industry, by the Code Authority. 

In order that the Code Aut~ority for the Collapsible Tube Industry may establish legal obligation making payment of approved 

Code Authority assessments for Code Administration mandatory, 

and that if such assessments are not paid within a reasonable time 

it _may institute legal proceedings therefor, this Industry has submitted and respectfully requested approval of an amendment whereby these purposes may be accomplished. 

The Assistant Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on 

said amendment to said Code having found as herein set forth and 

on the basis of all the proceedings in this matter: 

I find 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· among trade groups, by inducing and maintaining united action of labor and management under adequate governmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair competitive ph:tctices, by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the 

present productive capacity o:f 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 pow r~ by reducing and relieving unemployment, by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise 

rehabilitating indus try. 

(b) The Code as amended complies in all respects with the 

pertinent provisions of said Title of said Act, including 'vithout 

limitation Subsection (a) of Section 3·, Subsection (a) of Section 7 

and Subsection (b) o:f Section 10 thereof. 

(c) The Collapsible Tube :Manufacturers Association was and is 

a trade association truly representative o:f the aforesaid Industry and 

that said association imposed and imposes no inequitable restrictions on admission to membership therein and has applied :for or 

consents to this amendment. 

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

to and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices. (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.
