REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT 

The PRESIDENT, 

The White House. 

Srn: Under the Code of Fair Competition for the Farm Equipment Industry as approved October 3, 1933, the Code Authority for 

said Industry has submitted an Amendment w said Code, which if 

approved, would extend the expiration date from November 1, 1934 

to June 16, 1935. The Code in its present form does not conform to 

Administration Policy in a number. of respects and for this reason, 

the expiration date has been extended to February 1, 1935 instead 

of June 16, 1935 as requested by the Industry. Within the three 

months period of extensiOn a Public Hearing will be held to consider 

additional amendments. The amendment extending the expiration 

date to February 1, 1935 is embodied in the Order. 

An opportunity to be heard was duly noticed and no objections 

were received from the Industry or from interested parties associated with the Industry. 

FINDINGS 

The Deputy Administrator in his final report on said Amendment 

to said Code having found as herein set forth and on the basis of all 

proceedings in this matter, 

It is found 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 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 Subsection (a) of Section 3, Sub ection (a) of Section 7, and 

Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof. 

(c) The Farm Equipment Institute was and is an Industrial AssoCiation truly representative of the aforesaid Industry and that said 

Farm Equipment Institute imposed and imposes no inequitable restrictions on admis ion to membership therein and has applied for 

(2) 
3 

this amendment through the Code Authority of the aforesaid 

Industry. 

(d) The amendment and the Code as amended are not designe1l 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. 

(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, therefore, this amendment has been approved. 

For the National Industrial Recovery Board: 

OCTOBER 30, 1934.
