REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT 

The PRESIDENT, 

The lV hite House. 

Sm: On August 19, 1933, you approved a Code of Fair Competition for the Lumber and Timber Products Industries. 

This is a report on Lumber Code Authority Amendment Number 

73, a public hearing on which was conducted at the Mayflower I-!otel, 

)Vashington, D. C., on July 31i 1934, in accordance with the provisions of the National Industria Recovery Act. 

The Amendment contemplates the deletion of Article XV of the 

Lumber and Timber Products Industries Code. 

At the hearing it developed that due to previous amendments to 

the Code, the Article is unnecessary, and that enforce1nent under the 

Code would be simplified, and the Code itself and other provisions 

of the Code would be clarified by deletion of the Article in 

question. 

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to us on said Amendment to said Code having found as herein set forth and on the basis 

of all the proceedings in this matter; 

We find that: 

(a) The Amendment to said Code and the Code as amended are 

well designed to promote the policies and purposeg, 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 including 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 restrictions of productions ( 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 unproving standards of labor, and by otherwise 

rehabilitating industry. 

(b) The Code as amended complies in all re;;pects 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 Code empowers the Code Authority to present the aforesaid Amendm~nt 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. 

(2) 
3 

( 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, we have approved this Amendment 

to the Code. 

For the National Industrial Recovery Board: 

G. A. LYNCH, 

A drninis trativ e Officer.
