REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT 

The PRESIDENT, 

The White House. 

Sm: An application has been duly made pursuant to and in full 

compliance with the provisions of the National Industrial Recovery 

Act for an amendment of Article V of the Supplemental Code of 

Fair Competition for the Mechanical Lubricator Subdivision of 

Machinery and Allied. Products Industry, by the temporary Code 

Authority of that Subdivision. 

The Code of Fair Competition for the Machinery and Allied 

Products Industry· provides in Article VI, Section (g) as follows: 

"A Code Authonty is hereby constituted for each Subdivision to 

administer, supervise and facilitate the enforcement of this Basic 

Code in the manner and to the extent hereinafter provided in this 

Article, and of such Supplemental Code as may be submitted hereafter by a Subdivision and approved by the Administrator. 

" During the period not to exceed sixty ( 60) days following the 

eH:ective date of this Code, the governing body of the trade association (member of the applicant) representing the employers within 

the Subdivision, shall constitute a temporary Code Authority. The 

Administrator, in his discretion, may appoint one additional member (without vote and without expense to the industry). 

" Within said sixty (GO) day period each such temporary Code 

Authority shall call a meeting, to which all known members in the 

particular Subdivision concerned shall be invited, at which meeting 

the following action shall be taken : 

" 1. Adoption of procedural rules and regulations for the election, 

organization and operation of a permanent Code Authority. 

"2. Election of permanent Code Authority. 

"Each permanent Code Authority shall consist of not less than 

three (3) nor more than nine (9) representatives of employers in the 

Subdivision. The Administrator in his discretion may appoint one 

additilmal member (without vote :tnd without expense to the Subdivision). 

"Each such Code Authority may adopt such rules :for the conduct 

of the Code Activities of the Subdivision as are not inconsistent with 

thelrovisions of this Code. 

" ction by employers in any Subdivision meeting for the election 

of Code Authority shall be by vote of the employers entitled to vote 

as provided in Section (d) hereof, each such employer to have one 

vote only. Action by employers in any Subdivision meeting for the 

adoption of procedural rules, submission of a Supplemental Code or 

revisi{.m.9 or additions thereto, or the transaction of other business in 

such Subdivision under this Code, shall be by vote of the employers 

in su~h Subdivision who are entitled to vote thereat as provided in 

Section (d) hereof and are present in person or by proxy duly 

(2)

executed and filed with Code Authority of such Subdivision. cast and 

computed in the manner provided in Section (d) hereof for voting 

in the Industry, e~cept that employers in any Subdivision may prescribe such other method of voting as they may determine upon with 

the approval of the Administrator. 

"The foregoing provisions of this Section (g) shall apply to any 

Subdivision only In the event and so long as there shall be no Supplemental Code for such Subdivision aFproved by the Administrator 

in the event that such approved Supplemental Code shall fail to 

contain provisions for the creation and operation of a permanent 

Code Authority." 

A Code Authority for the Mechanical Lubricator Subdivision of 

Machinery and Allied Products IndustrA was elected in accordance 

with the Basic Code of Machinery and llied Products Industry as 

outlined above, before the Supplemental Code for this Subdivision 

was approved. Since the Supplemental Code for this Subdivision, 

approved June 4, 1934, does not contain provisions for recognizing 

the Code Authority elected in accordance with the provisions of the 

Basic Code, an application has been made by the temporary Code 

Authority for this Subdivision for an amendment to said Supplemental Code, which, when approved, will legalize the first permanent 

Code Authority elected as shown above. For elections aftBr the 

first, the provisions of this Supplemental Code for the election of 

a permanent Code Authority shall apply. 

The Assistant Deputy Administrator in hjs final report to me on 

said amendment to said Supplemental 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 Supplemental Code and the Supplemental 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 united action of labor and 

management under adequate goYernmental 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 standards of 

labor, and by otherwise rehabilitating industry. 

(b) The Supplemental 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 Mechanical Lubricator Association was and is a trade 

association truly representative of the aforesaid Subdivision and 

that said as ociation imposed and imposes no inequitable re trictions 

on admission to membership therein and has applied for or consents 

to this amendment. 
4 

·(d) The amendment and the Supplemental Code as amended are 

not designed to and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic 

practices. 

(e) The amendment and the Supplemental 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, therefore, I have approved this amendment to 

become effective fifteen (15) days from the date of the Order unless ~ood cause to the contrary is shown to me before that time and I 

Issue a subsequent order to that effect. 

Respectfully, 

AuousT 9, 1934.

Administrator.
