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 pertinent provisions of said Title of said Act, including without Jjmitation sub-section (a) of Section 3, sub-section (a) of Section 7, and
