REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT 

The PRESIDENT, 

The vV hite H ou.se. 

Sm: Public Hearing on an amendment to the Code of Fair Competition for the Medium and Low Priced Jewelry Manufacturing 

Industry submitted by the Schoenthaler-Green-Ellbogen-VVood Committee, representing 57 manufacturers of fraternity jewelry out of 

a possible 100 concerns manufacturing this product, was conducted 

in lVashington on April 27, 1934, in accordance with the provisions 

of the National Industrial Recovery Act. 

As a result of said hearing, it is believed that Section C, of Section 1, Schedule "A" of the above Code, would tend to establish 

monopolies. 

The Deputy Administrator in his final report on said Amendment 

to said Code having found as herein set forth and on the basis of all 

the proceedings in this matter: 

It is found that : 

(a) The Amendment of 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 purpose 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 the industries, by avoiding unclue restrictions 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 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 group was and is an industrial group truly representative 

of the manufacturers operating under Schedule A of the Code for 

the Industry and that said group imposed and imposes no inequitable 

restrictions on admission to membership therein and has applied for 

this amendment. 

( d) The amendments and the Code are not designed to and will 

not eliminate or oppress small enterprises and will not operate to 

discriminate against them.
