REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT 

The PRESIDENT, 

The White House. 

Srn: The Code Authority for the Dress Manufacturing Industry 

submitted on July 26, 1934, two proposed amendments to the Code 

of Fair Competition for the Dress Manufacturing Industry. 

As these amendments were short and simple and consistent with 

the policy of the Administration a Public Hearing was considered 

not necessary and in lieu of the Public Hearing a N otke of Opportunity to be Heard (Administrative Order No. 64-17) was 

printed and distributed in the same manner as a Notice of Public 

Hearing. The date of August 13, 1934, was set forth in 1 his Notice 

of Opportunity to be H eard as a deadline on which to receive objections or criticisms to these amendments. Up to and including 

August 13, 1934, no objections or criticisms were received. 

The first amendment amends Article VI of the Code, allowing the 

Code Authority and any of its agencies or divisions to incorporate 

under the laws of any state of the United St.ates or the District of 

Columbia. 

The second amendment amends Article IX of the Code and makes 

the bribery or attempted bribery of any employees of the Code 

Authority a violation of the Code. 

In final form these amendments were approved by the Industrial 

Advisory Board, the Labor Advisory Board, the Consumers' Advisory Board, the Legal Division and the Research and Planning 

Division of the National Recovery Administration. 

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said amendments to said Code having found as herein set forth and on the basis 

of all the proceedings in this matter : 

I find that: 

(a) The amendments 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 pμrpose 

of cooperative 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 consmnption of industrial and agricultural products 

through increa,sing 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 

sub-section (a) of Section 3, sub-section (a) of Section 7 and subsection (b) of Section 10, thereof. 

( c) The Code empowers the Code Authority to present the aforesaid aniendments on behalf oi the industry as a whole. 

( d) The amendments and the Code as amended are not designed 

to and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices. 

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

to and will not eliminate or oppress small enterprises and will not 

operate to di,scriminate 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 

amendments. 

For these reasons these amendments have been approved. 

For the National Industrial Recovery Board: 

G. A. LYNCH,
