REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT 

The PRESIDENT, 

The White House. 

SIR: The Code Authority for the Code of Fair Competition for 

the Millinery and Dress Trimming Braid and Textile Industry, has 

submitted a proposed amendment to this Code. After conferring 

with members of the Code Authority and representatives of the 

various advisory boards of the National Recovery Administration, 

a hearing was held on May 10, 1934, following which, revision of the 

amendment was made. 

The proposed amendment changes the definition as it applies to 

this Industry under Article I, Section (a) of the Code to the extent 

that the words" made in major portion" are changed to read "made 

in whole or in any portion", in order that those members of other 

industries who have been prone to engage in the manufacture and/or 

distribution of products common to the Ivlillinery and Dress Trimming Braid and Textile Industry shall not be able to determine the 

demarcation of the words "major portion " to their own benefit and 

thereby be exempted from provisions of the Code of Fair Competition for the Millinery and Dress Trimming Braid and Textile 

Industry. 

The Deputy Administrator, in his final report to me on the amendment to said Code, having found as herein set forth and on the 

basis of all the proceedings in this matter: 

It finds that: 

(a) The amendment to said Code and the Code as amended are 

well designed to J?romote the policies and purposes of Title I of the 

National Industnal Recovery Act, including the removal of objections 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 Government sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair competitive 

practices by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the productive capacity of industry, 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 to the pertinent 

provisions of said Title I of said Act, including without limitation 

subsection (a) of Section 3, subsection (a) of Section 7, and subsec- tion (b) of Section 10 thereof. 

(2) 
3 

(c) The amendment to the Code as amended is not designed to and 

will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices. 

(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 o£ the economic process have not 

been deprived o£ the right to be heard prior to the approval o£ said 

amendment. 

For these reasons, this amendment has been approved. 

For the National Industrial Recovery Board:
