to the free flow of int.erstate 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 purposes 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 temporarily required),

Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof.

been deprived of the right to be heard prior to approval of said 

Amendment. 

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved this Amendment, 

such approval and such amendment to take effect in fifteen ( 15) 

days, unless good cause to the contrary is shown to me before that 

time and I issue a subsequent order to that effect. 

Respectfully, 

JULY 14, 1934.
