REPORT TO TI-IE PRESIDENT 

The PRESIDENT, 

The 1V hite li ouse. 

SrR: This is a report on an amendment to the Code of Fair Competition for the Electrical Manufacturing Industry. Opportunity 

to be Heard was noticed to all interested parties March 14, 1935, 

in accordance with the provisions of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery Act. All criticisms of, objections to, or suggestions 

concerning said am.endment have been given due consideration. 

The amendlhent, which is attached, was presented by the Board of 

Governors of the National Electrical Manufacturers As ociation 

(Code Authority for the Electrical Manufacturing Industry). 

The Electrical :Manufacturing Code is amended to incorporate 

additional fair trade practice provisions, the need of which has 

been demonstrated by practical experience under the Code. 

FINDINGS 

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to the National Industrial Recovery Board on said amendment to said Code having 

found as herein set forth, and on the basis of all the proceedings in 

ihis matter: 

It i 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 inter tate 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 

gm·ernmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair competitive practices, by promoting the fullest po.'sible utilization of 

the present productiYe capacity of indu trie , by avoiding undue 

restriction of production (except as may be temporarily required), 

by increasing the consumption of industrial and agricultural products through incre'-'sing purchasing power, by reducinp· and relievino· unemployment, by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise rehabilitating indu try. 

(b) The Code as amen led complies in all re ·pects with the pertinent provi ion of said Title of aid \.ct. including without limitation Sub ection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of Section 7, and 

Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof. 

(c) The amendment and the Code as amende l are not de ·igned to 

and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices. 

·(2) 
3 

(d) The amendment and the Cole as amende 1 are not de igned 

to and will not eliminate or oppre ·mall enterprise and will not 

operate to discriminate again t them. 

(e) Those engaged in other tep · of the econom1c process have 

not been clepriYecl of the right to ~ heard prior to approval of aid 

amendment. 

For these reasons, therefore, thi amendment ha · been approved, 

the approYal to become effective fifteen (15) day from the date of 

the Order.
