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 amendment to the Code of Fair Competition for the Cordage and Twine Industry, submitted by the Code Authority for said 

Industry. 

The purpose of the amendment is: 

1. To delete Schedule "A:' in its entirety from the Code of Fair 

Competition for the Cordage and Twine Industry. 

The effects of the deletion of said Schedule "A" are: 

1. To eliminate the fair trade practice provisions contained in 

Schedule "A" in order that the members of the Cordage and 'Vrapping Twine Industry Division may more equitably meet the competitiol). offered by the Philippine cordage and twine importers and 

the competition offered by the prison labor made cordage and twine. 

2. To eliminate fair trade practices which have been found to be 

impractical. 

FINDINGS 

The Assistant Deputy Administrator in his final report to the N ational Industrial Recovery Board on said amendment to said Code 

having found as herein set forth and on the basis of all the pro- ceedings in this matter: 

The Board finds that: 

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

well designated to promote the policies and purpoc::es 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 f-or 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 

practices, by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the present 

productive capacity of the industries, by avoiding undue restriction 

of production (except as may be temporarily required), by increasing 

the consumption of industrial and agricultural J?roducts through 

increasing purchasing power, by reducing and reheving 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 sub-section (a) of Section 3, sub-section (a) of Section 7, and 

sub-section (b) of Section 10 thereof. 

(2)_

(c) The Code empowers the Code Authority to present the afore- , aid amendment on behalf of the industry as a whole. 

(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. 

(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, said amendment has been approved. 

For the National Industrial Recovery Board:
