REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT 

The PRESIDENT, 

The vV hite House. 

Srn: The Code Authority for the Code of Fair Competition for 

the Sanitary and Waterproof Specialties Manufacturing Industry 

has submitted a proposed amendment to this Code. After conferring 

with members of the Code Authority and representatives of the various advisory boards of the National Recovery Administration, Notice 

of Opportunity to be Heard was afforded the members of this Industry through the published notice of August 6, 1934, said Notice having expired on August 18, 1934, with no criticisms of, objections to, 

or suggestions having been submitted. 

This amendment amended Article VI, Section 3 (h) by deleting 

that section and sub tituting therefor provisions authorizing the collection of funds for the purpose of administering Code Authority 

expenses. These provi ions will be ide.ntified as Article VI, Section 

3 (h) 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. 

The Acting Deputy Administrator, in his final report to the National Indn trial Recovery Board on the amendment to said Code, 

having found as herein set-forth and on the basis of all proceedings 

in this matter: 

It finds that: 

(a) The amendment to 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 

practice by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the presen~ 

productive capacity of industries, by avoiding undue restriction of 

production ( except as may be temporarily required), by incTeasing 

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 aid Act, including without limitation 

Subsection (a) of Section 3, Sub ection (a) of Section 7, and Sub<::ection (b) of Section 10 thereof. 

( c) The Code empowers the Code Authority to present the aforesaid amendn1ents on behalf of the Indu try as a whole. 

( d) The amendment to the Code as amended is not des.igned to 

and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices.
