The PRESIDENT,

Srn: This is a report on an Amendment to the Code of Fair

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 this matter :

purposes of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery Act, including the removal 0:f obstructions to the free flow of interstate and 

foreign commerce which tend to diminish the amount thereof, and 

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 governmental sanction and supervision, by 

eliminating unfair competitive practices, by promoting the fullest 

possible utilization of the present productive capacity of indu.stries, 

by a voiding 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 standard of 

labor and by otherwise rehabilitating industry. 

(b) The Code, as amended, complies in all respects with the l ertinent provi ion of said Title o.f aid Act, includino- without limitation ub ection (a) of ection 3, Subsection (a) of ction 7, and 

~ 'ub ·tion (b) of S ction 10 thereof.

AMENDMENT TO CODE OF FAIR COMPETITION FOR THE 

CIGAR CONTAINER INDUSTRY 

Amend : Article VI, by adding a new Section 3, as follows : 

The Code Authority may incorporate under the laws of any state 

of the United States or of the District of Columbia, if it deems such 

action appropriate for the proper performance of its activities, powers and duties under this Code. Such a Corporation shall be not for 

profit and the powers, duties, objects and purposes of said Corporation shall be limited to the powers, duties, objects and purposes of 

the Code Authority as provided in this Code. Prior to such incorporation the Code Authority shall submit to the National Industrial 

Recovery Board for its approval the proposed Certificate of Incorporation and proposed by-laws, and no amendment of either shall 

be made without the like prior approval of the National Industrial 

Recovery Board. 

If, at any time, the National Industrial Recovery Board shall 

determine that the corporate status assumed by the Code Authority 

is interfering with the proper performance of its activities, powers 

and duties under this Code, or with the effectuation of the policies 

or purposes of the Act, it may, after such notice of hearing as it 

may deem necessary, require an appropriate modification of the 

structure of the corporation (if consistent with the law of the state 

of incorporation), the substitution of a corporation created under 

the laws of another state in the manner set forth herein, the substitution of a non-corporate Code Authority truly representative of 

the industry, or such other action as it may deem expedient.
