issued by the Administration.

on said amendment 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 amendment to said Code and the Code as amended 

are well designed to promote the policies and purposes o:f Title I 

of the National Industrial Recovery Act including the removal o:f 

obstructions to the free flow 0£ interstate and -foreign commerce 

which tend to diminish the amount thereof, and will provide :for 

the general welfare by promoting the organization 0£ industry for 

the purpose o:f cooperative action among trade groups, by inducing 

and maintaining united action of labor and managern.ent under adequate governmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating un:fair 

cOIIIlpetitive practices, by promoting the :fullest possible utilization 

of the present productive capacity o:f industries, by avoiding undue 

restriction of production ( except as may be temporarily required), 

by increasing the consumption o:f industrial and agricultural products through increasing 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 limita-

(2) 
3 

tion 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 aforesaid amendment on behalf of the Industry as a whole. 

( d) The amendment and the Code a amende l are not designed 

to and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices. 

( e) The a.mendment and the Code as amended are not designed 

to and will not eliminate or oppre s 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, therefore, I have approved this amendment. 

Respectfully, 

AUGUST 24, 1934.
