National Industrial Recovery Act, including the removal of obstructions to the free flow of interstate and foreign commerce which tend 

to dimini h the amouilt thereof, and will provide for the general 

welfare by promoting the organization of industry for the purpo e 

of cooperative action among trade groups, by inducing and nlaintaining united action of labor and manag ment under adequate 

governmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair competitiYe practices, by avoiding undue restriction of production 

(except as may be temporarily required), by increasing the consumption of industrial and a!Tricultural products through increasing purcha ing power, by reducing and relieving unemployment, 

by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise rehabilitating 

industry. 

(2)

(b) The Code as amended complies in all respects with the pertinent proYi ion of ail Title of aiel A t, including without limitation Subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of Section 7, and

(c) The amendment and the Code as amended are not designed 

to and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices.

amendment. 

For these reasons, therefore~ The National Industrial Recovery
