REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT 

The PRESIDENT, 

The White House. 

SIR: This is a report on an amendment to the Code of Fair Competition for the Cotton Textile Industry. Notice of Opportunity to 

be Heard on this amendment was published on March 20, 1935; only 

one objection was received within the given twenty day period ending April 9, 1935. The amendment, which is attached, was presented 

by duly qualified and authorized representatives of the Industry, 

complying with statutory requirements and being the duly constituted Code Authority under the provisions of the said Code for the 

said Industry. 

The purpose of this amendment is to amplify the existing Section 

2 of the Trade Practices Governing the Merchandising of Carded 

Cotton Yarn by requiring spinning mills to file certified reports of 

sales of carded cotton yarn whether such sales are made direct or 

through sales agents, thereby assuring more complete and accurate 

statistical data on this branch of the Industry. 

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to the 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; 

The National Industrial Recovery Board finds that: 

(a) The amendment to said 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 

nnited 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 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 the 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 10 thereof; 

(c) The Code empowers the Code Authority to present the aforeBaid 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 practices. 

(2) 
3 

(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. 

(f) Those engaged in other steps of the economic process have 

not been deprived of the right to be heard prior to approval of said 

amendment. 

For these reasons this amendment has been approved. 

For the National Industrial Recovery Board:
