The 1¥h-i'te House. 

Sm: This is a report on an amendm.en.t to the Code of Fair Competition for the vVall Paper Manufacturing Industry, which was 

approved by you on September 1, 1933. 

The effect of this amendment will allow members of the Industry 

to sell products of the Industry below cost for the purpose of meeting 

competitive prices, which competitive :prices themselves do not violate the provision of the Code, prohibitmg the sale below cost.

basis of all the proceedings in the 1natter:

well designed to promote the policies and purposes of Title I of 

the National IndustriaJ Recovery Act including the removal of obstrnctions to the free flow of interstate and foreign corrunerce which 

tend to diminish the amount thereof, aJ1d will provide fo-r the 

general welfare by promoting the organization of Industry for 

the purpose of coeperative action of labor and management under 

adequate Gove:rnmental 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 1nodified complies in all respects with the pertinent provision of said Title of said Act, including without limitation Subsection (a) of Section 3, S11bsection (a) of Section 7 and 

Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof. 

( c) The Code empowers the Code Authoirity to propose this 

amendment on behalf of the Industry as a whole. 

(d) The modification and the Code as modified are not designed 

to and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices. 

( e) The modification and the Code as modified 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 pro ess have 

not b en deprived of the right to be heard prior to approval of said 

modification. 

F or the:e r asons thi modifi ation has b en approved.
