REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT 

The PRESIDENT, 

The White House. 

SIR: An application has been duly made pursuant to and in full 

compliance with the prov.i. ions of the National Industrial Recovery 

Act for an amendment to the Code of Fair Competition for the 

Restaurant Indu try recommended by the Code Authority for that 

Industry. 

This amendment is propo. eel in order to permit the National, State 

and Local Code Authorities, established pur uant to the provisions 

of Article VIII, Section 1, Subsection (e) of the Code, to incorporate. 

The Deputy Administrator, in his final report to me on said amendment to ·aiel Code, having found as herein set forth and on the 

basis of all the proceeding in this matter : 

I find that: 

(a) The amendment to ·aid 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 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 

purpose of cooperative action among trade groups, by inducing and 

maintaining united action of labor and management under adequate governmental sanction and supervision, by elimina6ng unfair 

competitive practices, by pron1.oting the fullest possible utilization 

of the 1Jresent 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 increa ing purchasing power, by reducing and relieving 

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 Subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of Section 7 and 

Subsection (b) of Section 1.0 thereof. 

(c) The Code empowers the Code Authority to present the aforesaid 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 practice . 

(e) 1 he 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) Tho e engaged in other steps of the economic proce s have not 

been clepriYed of the right to be heard prior to approval of aid 

amendment. 

For the e reasons therefore, I have approved this amendment. 

Respectfully, 

A_PmL 4, 1934.
