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 ~covery 

Act for an amendment of Article IV of the Supplementary Code of 

Fair Competition for the Cutlery, Manicure Implement and Painters and Paperhangers Tool Manufacturing and Assembling Industry by the Supplementary Code Authority for that Industry. 

The Supplementary Code of Fair Competition for the Cutlery, 

Manicure Implement and Painters and Paperhangers Tool Manufacturing and Assembling Industry was approved on March 26, 1934. 

Article IV, Section 6, Subsection ( e) provides that: 

' ( e) To distribute the expense incurred in connection with ita 

activities relative to the administration of this Supplementary Code 

among the members of the Industry, the share of said expense to be 

paid by each member of the Industry, to be based upon the volume 

of business and/ or such other factors as the Supplementary Code 

Authority may prescribe, and every member of the Industry subject 

to the jurisdiction of this Supplementary Code shall pay to the Supplementary Code Authority his or its proportionate share of the 

cost of maintaining such Supplementary Code Authority. When 

such proportionate hare to be paid by each member of the Indu try 

ha been determined, the Supplementary Code Authority hall notify 

each member of the Industry of the amount thereof, and said member of the Industry hall promptly pay said amount to the Supplementary Code Authority at such times and in such installments as 

the Supplementary Code Authority may require. Any unreasonable 

delay in making such payment or refusal to make same shall be a 

violation of this Supplementary Code." 

The above Section of Article IV in effect provides for voluntary 

contribution on the part of the members of the Industry. This 

method of providing funds for the proper administration of the 

Supplem ntary Code has been found to be un atisfactory. The 

pr ent amendment i therefore propo ed to create a legal oblio-ation on th part of the Indu try members to pa their pro ratu share 

of the expen es of the Supplementary Code Authority. 

FINDINGS 

The As i tant Deputy Admini trator, in his final report to the 

National Indu trial Recovery Board on aid amendment of said 

Supplementary o l having found a herein set forth and on the 

basis of all of the proceedings in thi matter: 

(3) 
4 

It finds 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 or 

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 

governmental 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 Code as amended complies in all respects with the perti- nent 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 Code empowers the Code Authority to present the afore-

~aid amendment on behalf of the Industry as a whole. 

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

to and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices. 

( e) The amendment and the 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, it has approved this amendment. 

For the National Industrial Recovery Board:
