REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT 

1

-Xhe PRESIDENT, 

The White House. 

SIR: The Code Authority for the Dress Manufacturing Industry 

submitted two proposed amendments to the Code of Fair Competition for the Dress Manufacturing Industry. These am_endments were 

presented to the Legal Division, Research and Planning Division, 

Consumers' Advisory Board, Labor Advisory Board and Industrial 

Advisory Board of the National Recovery Administration and received their approval. 

One amendment was merely the correction of a typographical 

error in Article VI, Section 1 (b) of the Code which clarified its 

meaning. The amenq.ment was in accordance with the standard 

:form and consisten:t with the policy of the Administration. For this 

reason a Public Hearing was considered unnecessary and in lieu of 

the said hearing the amendment was approved in the form of a 

show cause order. 

The second amendment was an addition to Section 14 of Article 

IX to the effect that, it shall be a violation of the Code for any 

member to accept orders from a resident buyer unless written authorization is either submitted with the order or is on file with the 

Dress Code Authority. This amendment · was also in accordance 

with the standard form and consistent with the policy of the Administration. For this reason it was treated in the same fashion as the 

first amendment. 

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to the National Industrial Recovery Board on said amendments to said Code having 

found as herein set forth and on the basis of all proceedings in this 

matter. 

The National Industrial Recovery Board finds that: 

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

well designed to promofa~ the policies and purposes of Title I of the · National 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 purpose of "Cooperative action of labor and management under adequate governmental 

sanctions 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 tern porarily required), by increasing 

the consumption of industrial and agricultural products through increased purchasing power, by reducing and relieving unemployment, 

by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise rehabilitating 

industrv. 

(b) The Code as amended complies in all respects with the pertinent provisions of said Title of said Act, including without limita-

(2) 
3 

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

Subsection (b) 0£ Section 10, thereof. 

( c) The Code empowers the Code Authority to present the aforesaid amendments on behalf 0£ the industry as a whole. 

( d) The amendments and the Code a 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. · (£) Those engaged in other steps 0£ the economic process have not 

been deprived 0£ the right to be heard prior to the effective date of 

these amendments. 

For the National Industrial Recovery Board: 

w. A. HARRIMAN,
