1' he White H ouse. 

SIR : I have the honor to ubmit herewith an amendment t o the 

Code of Fair Competition for the Cotton Textile Indu try. The 

amendment, which is attached, was presented by the Code Authority. 

Notice of opportunity to be heard on t his amendment was given 

a_nd no objections were received. 

The amendment provides that that portion of sub-eli vi ion 4 of 

the second paragraph of Section 1, defining piece dyeing machines 

as "productive machinery " shall be stricken out an d that " piece 

dyeing machines where the same are used in production of unprinted 

fabrics " hall be in :erted, becau ·e of the f a,ct that in ca es wher e 

a fabric after being dye l in the piece is to be printed, the piece 

dyeing machine no longer remains the productive machinery. 

FI NDI~GS 

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said 

amendment to said Code having found as herein set forth and on 

the basis of all proceedings in this n1atter: 

I find that : 

(a) The am.endment to said Code and the Code as amended are 

well designed to promote the policies and purpo es of Title I of 

the National Industrial Recovery Act including the r·emoval of 

ob truc.tions 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 purpo e of cooperative action among tradP groups, by inclucjng 

and maintaining united action of labor and management under 

adequ" te governmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating 

unfair competitive practices, by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the prese11t productive capacity of indu tries, by avoiding 

undue r e triction of production (except as may be temporarjly required), by increasing the consumption of indu trial and agricultural products throuo·h increasing purchasing power, by reducing 

and relieving unemployment, by improving standards of labor, and 

by otherwi e rehabilitating industry. 

(b) The Code as amended complie in all re pf'cts with tl1e pertin nt provision of said Title f aiel Act, including without limitation Sub ection (a) of Section o, Subsection ( u) of Section 7 and 

Subse tion (b) of Section 10 thereof. 

(c) The Code Authority i. empowered to pre ent the afore aid 

amendment on bel alf of the Indu. try as a whole. 

(d) The am ndment and the Code as an .. ende 1 are not de ·igned 

to and will not permit monopolie or monopolistic p ractices. 

(2) 
3 

(e) The amendment and the Code as amended are not designed 

to and will not eliminate or oppress small enterprjses 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 a p1n·oval of said 

amendment. 

For the above reasons this amendment has been approved by me. 

AUGUST 2, 1934.
