CODES OF FAIR COMPETITION

Approved Code No. 491
CODE OF FAIR COMPETITION

FOR THE

IMPORTED GREEN OLIVE INDUSTRY

As Approved on July 24, 1934

ORDER

Approving Code of Fair Competition for the Imported Green

Oli^^ Industry

An application having been duly made pursuant to and in full
compliance with the provisions of Title I of the National Industrial
Recovery Act, approved June 16, 1933, for approval of a Code of
Fair Competition for the Imported Green Olive Industry, and hear-
ings having been duly held tJiereon and the annexed report on said
Code, containing findings with respect thereto, having been made
and directed to the President :

Hugh S. Johnson,
Administrator for Indiustrial Reco'very.
Approval recommended:
Armin W. Riley,

Division Administrator.
Washington, D.C,

July ^4, 193Jf.

75619° 829-133 34 1 (1)

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

Th£ White House.
Sir : This is a repoi't on the Code of Fair Competition for the
Imported Green Olive Industry, and on the Public Hearing held
in Washington, D.C., on March 9, 1934, in accordance with the
provisions of the National Industrial Recovery Act.

GENERAL

The Code for the Imported Green Olive Industry will mean, it is
estimated, an increase in employment of between fifteen per cent
(15%) to twenty per cent (20%) and in wages approximately
eighteen per cent (18%). Average hours in 1933 were reported as
forty-seven (47) hours; a reduction to forty (40) hours as provided
in this Code will mean an increase of between fifteen per cent (15%)
to twenty per cent (20%) in employment from that prevailing early
in 1933.

The volume of Imports of Green Olives including Pitted and
Stuffed has shown a steady decline from a peak of 9,790,792 gallons
in 1930 to 5,932,800 gallons in 1931 and 6,824,798 gallons in 1932 with
a corresponding decline in the sales price of Green Olives on the
American market.

The employment in the Imported Green Olive Industry is evsti-
mated at one thousand (1000) employees.

The Association of American Importers of Green Olives is a trade
association, truly representative of the industry, and imposes no in-
equitable restrictions on membership.

HOURS

The Code for the Imported Green Olive Industry provides for a
maximum work week of forty (40) hours with a limitation of eight
(8) hours in any twenty-four (24) hour period. There are the usual
exceptions, complete or partial, in the case of persons employed in a
managerial, executive, or technical capacity, who regularly receive
not less than thirty-five dollars ($35.00) per week. Watchmen are
not permitted to work in excess of fifty -six (56) hours per week.
Chauffeurs, truckdrivers, and deliverymen are not permitted to work
in excess of forty-eight (48) hours per week. Foremen, foreladies,
shipping and receiving clerks may be permitted to work forty-four
(44) hours per week provided that time and one-third is paid for all
time worked in excess of the basic forty (40) hours as provided in
this Code. No employee shall be permitted to work more than six
(6) days in any seven (7) day period. In cases of peak production,
inventory periods, financial closing periods, and other uniLsual con-
ditions beyond the control of the employer, employees may work not

(2)

in excess of six (6) hours in any week or one (1) hour in any day,
during not to exceed twelve (12) weeks in any calendar year or eight
(8) weeks in any six (6) months, such overtime to be compensated
for at time and one-third. Emplo3^ers shall report to the Code Au-
thority or the Administrator, as the case may be, all hours worked
in excess of basic hours permitted by tliis Code. Office employees
who regularly receive thirty-five dollars ($35.00) per week or more
are not subject to overtime payment. Employees on emergency re-
pair or emergency maintenance work involving mechanical break-
downs or protection of life and property working in excess of the
basic hours permitted by this Code shall be compensated by time
and one-third the regular hourly rate.

WAGES

No person employed in clerical, accounting or office work shall be
paid less than at the rate of Sixteen dollars ($16,00) per week except
that office boys shall be paid at a rate of not less than fourteen
dollars ($14.00) per week.

The number of office boys classified and compensated below the
minimum shall not exceed five per cent (5%) of the total number of
office employees, but each employer shall be entitled to one such
employee. No other employee shall be paid less than at the rate of
forty cents (40^) per hour for male employees and thirty cents (30^)
per hour for female employees, provided, however, that the Code
Authority shall render a complete report on this subject to the Ad-
ministrator or his duly authorized agent at a time prior to September
1, 1934, with a view to an upward revision of these minima. Time
and one third the normal rate shall be paid for all time worked
(except by those employees covered by Section 2 of Article III and
watchmen) on Sun-days or on State and National holidays. There
are the usual safeguarding clauses. No person under sixteen (16)
years of age shall be employed in the Industry.

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said Code
having found as herein set forth and on the basis of all the pro-
ceedings in this matter:

I find that:

(a) Said Code is well designed to promote the policies and pur-
poses of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery Act, including
removal of obstructions to the free flow of interstate and foreign
commerce which tend to diminish the amount thereof and will pro-
vide for the general welfare by promoting the organization of indus-
try for the purpose of cooperative action among the trade groups,
by inducing and maintaining united action of labor and manage-
ment under adequate governmental sanctions and supervisions, 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), and b}^ increasing the consumption of indus-
trial and agricultural products through increasing purchasing
power, by reducing and relieving unemployment, by improving
standards of labor, and by otherwise rehabilitating industry.

(b) Said Industry normally employs not more than 50,000 em-
ployees; and is not classified by me as a major Industry.

(c) The Code as approved complies in all respects with the per-
tinent provisions of said Title of said Act, including without limita-
tion Subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of Section 7, and
Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof; and that the applicant asso-
ciation is a trade association truly representative of the aforesaid
Industry; and that said association imposes no inequitable restric-
tions on admission to membership therein.

(d) The Code is not designed to and will not permit monopolies
or monopolistic practices.

(e) The Code is 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
Code.

For the above reasons, this Code has been approved.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Ad7ninistrator,
July 24, 1934.

respects comply with the provisions of the Act, may require an ap-
propriate modification in the method of selection of the Code
Authority.

Akticle VII — Trade Practices

The following practices constitute unfair methods of competition
'for members of the industry and are prohibited :
I 1. Inaccurate Advertising. — No member of the industry shall pub-
lish advertising (whether printed, radio, display, or of any other
nature), which is misleading or inaccurate in any material particu-
lar, nor shall any member in any way misrepresent any goods Hn-
cluding, but without limitation, its use, trade-mark, grade, quality,
quantity, origin, size, substancCj character, nature, finish, material,
content, or preparation) or credit terms, values, policies, services, or
the nature or lorm of the business conducted.

2. False Billing. — No member of the industry shall knowingly
withliold from or insert in any quotation or invoice any statement
that makes it inaccurate in any material particular.

3. lnnccv.rate Labelling. — No member of the industry shall brand
or mark or pack an}' goods in any manner which is intended to or
does deceive or mislead purchasers with respect to the brand, grade,
quality, quantity, origin, size, substance, character, nature, finish,
material content, or preparation of such goods.

4. Inaccurate References to Ccnrfpetitors^ etc. — No member of the
industry shall publish advertising which refers inaccurately in any
material particular to any competitors or their goods, prices, values,
credit terms, policies, or services.

5. Diversion of Brokerage. — (a) No member of the industry shall
pay or allow any brokerage or commission, except to its sales repre-
sentatives, and then only for services actually performed ; no brokeu-
age or commission shall be paid or allowed, directly or indirectly,
to a buyer. No member of the industry shall permit a brokerage
or commission to be paid or allowed to any buyer by employing a
sales agency which such member of the industry knows or has reason
to believe is dividing or will divide its brokerage or commission with
any buyer.

(b) The foregoing provision shall not be construed or applied
60 as to limit the right of any member to grant to any buyer a price
reduction or discount by reason of savings effected through a price
differential which is based upon and reasonably measured by such
savings to the member and is based upon and reasonably measured
by the quantity sold and delivered.

j 6. Costs and Price Cutting. — (a) Wilfully destructive price cut-
ting is an unfair method of competition and is forbidden. Any
member of the industry or of any other industry or the customers
of either may at any time complain to the Code Authority that any
price constitutes unfair competition as destructive price cutting,
imperiling small enterprise or tending toward monopoly or the im-
pairment of code wages and working conditions. The Code Author-
ity shall within five (5) days afford an opportunity to the member

filing the price to answer such complaint and shall within fourteen
(14) days make a ruling or adjustment thereon. If such ruling
is not concurred in by either party to the complaint, all papers
shall be referred to the Research and Planning Division of NRA
which shall render a report and recommendation thereon to the
Administrator.

(b) When no declared emergency exists as to any given product,
there is to be no fixed minimum basis for prices. It is intended that
sound cost estimating methods should be used and that consideration
should be given to costs in the determination of pricing policies.

(c) When an emergency exists as to any given product, sale below
the stated minimum price of such product, in violation of Section 8
hereof, is forbidden.

7. Distressed Merchandise. — Notwithstandino^ the provisions of
Section 6 of this Article, distressed merchandise may be sold in
accordance with rules and regulations to be prescribed by the Code
Authority, subject to the approval of the Administrator.

8. Emergency Provisimis. — (a) If the Administrator, after in-
vestigation shall at any time find both (1) that an emergency has
arisen within the industry adversely affecting small enterprises or
wages or labor conditions, or tending toward monopoly or other
acute conditions which tend to defeat the purposes of the Act; and
(2) that the determination of the stated minimum price for a speci-
fied product within the industry for a limited period is necessary
to mitigate the conditions constituting such emergency and to effect-
uate the purposes of the Act, the Code Authority may cause an
impartial agency to investigate costs and to recommend to the Ad-
ministrator a determination of the stated minimum price of the
product affected by the emergency and thereupon the Administrator
jnay proceed to determine such stated minimum price.

(b) When the Administrator shall have determined such stated
minimum price for a specified product for a stated period, which
price shall be reasonably calculated to mitigate the conditions of such
emergency and to effectuate the purposes of the National Industrial
Recovery Act, he shall publish such price. Thereafter, during such
stated period, no member of the industry shall sell such specified
products at a net realized price below said stated minimum price
and any such sale shall be deemed destructive price cutting. From
time to time, the Code Authority may recommend review or recon-
sideration or the Administrator may cause any determinations here-
under to be reviewed or reconsidered and appropriate action taken.

9. Selling On Other Than Standard Terms. — It shall be an unfair
trade practice to sell on other than the following terms and
conditions :

(a) Bottled Olives — Guarantees. — No member of the industry
shall guarantee against spoilage, olives in bottles and jars (up to
and including the thirty -two (32) ounce size) for a period in excess
of six (6) months from date of shipment. This provision does not
prohibit the reconditioning of olives upon which the cost of trans-
portation and reconditioning is defrayed bj the buyer.

(b) Bulk Olives. — No member of the mdustry shall guarantee
bulk olives against spoilage. Sellers shall guarantee that bulk olives
are in good condition, and well coopered when shipped.

10. Allowances. — ^No member of the industry shall make an allow-
ance (1) for broken bottles, bottles without caps if identified only
by labels; (2) unless he has had a reasonable opportunity to ex-
amine the ^oods, and if goods are to be destroyed, a reasonable
opportunity to supervise such destruction; (3) for labels "where
products are packed under Private Label unless the label is com-
pletely imprinted and ready for use, and if allowance is made it
shall not be in excess of the average cost of labels to the packer.

11. Threats of Law Suits. — No member of iho industry shall pub-
lish or circulate unjustified or unwarranted threats of legal pro-
ceedings which tend to or have the elt'ect of harassing competitors
or intimidating their customers.

12. Sea'et Relates. — No member of the industry shall secretly
oflFer to make any payment or allowance of a rebate, refund, com-
mission, credit, unearned discount or excess allowance, whether in
the form of money or otherwise, nor shall a member of the industry
offer or extend to any customer any special service or privilege not
extended to all customers of the same class, for the purpose of
influencing a sale.

13. Selling on Consignment. — No member of the industry shall
ship goods on consignment except under circumstances to be defined
by the Code Authority and subject to the approval of the Admin-
istrator, where peculiar circumstances of the industry require such
practice.

permit to be given, or offer to give, anything of value for the purpose
of influencing or rewarding the action of any employee, agent, or
represenative of another ia relation to the business of the employer of
such employee, the principal of such agent or the represented party,
without the knowledge of such employer, principal or party. This
provision shall not be construed to prohibit free and general distri-
bution of articles commonly used for advertising except so far as
such articles are actually used for commercial bribery as hereinabove
defined.

15. Interference with Another's Contract. — No member of the in-
dustry shall attempt to induce the breach of an existing contract
between a competitor and his employee or customer or source of
supply; nor shall any such member interfere with or obstruct the
performance of such contractual duties or services.

purchase of any goods be a prerequisite to the purchase of any other
goods.

pate with other members of the industry who with such member
constitute a substantial number of members of the industry or who
together control a substantial per cent of the business in any specific
product or products of the industry, in any transaction known in
law as a black list, including any practice or device (such as a white
list) which accomplishes the purpose of a black list.

Article VIII — Coordination with Other Codes

The industry, recognizing the value of uniform basic trade practice
provisions for all food and grocery manufacturing codes, pledges co-

operation in securing the amendment of any trade practice pro-
visions in this Code which may be in conflict with trade practice pro-
visions approved by the President or suggested by the Administrator
for the entire food and grocery manufacturing industry.

Article IX — jModificatiox

Section 2. This Code, except as to provisions required by the Act,

EEPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

White House.
Sir : This is a report of the hearing on the Code of Fair Competi-
tion for the Stereotype Dry Mat Industry, conducted in Washington
on May 3, 1934, in accordance with the provisions of Title I of the
National Industrial Recovery Act.

HOURS AND WAGES

This Code i)rovides a standard forty (40) hour week for factory
workers with a weekly tolerance of eight (8) hours to be paid for
as overtime. The usual exceptions are made in regard to non-
productive employees and employees engaged in continuous process
operations.

The minimum wage rate for hourly paid emploj'ces is 40^ per
hour for males and 32i/2V^ for females. Office employees will receive
a minimum of $16.00 per week, except for 5% of such class of
employees who may be compensated at the minimum return of
$14.00 per week.

OPEN PRICE PLAN

An open price plan of selling is provided and selling below cost,
except to meet competition, is proliibited.

OTHER PROVISIONS

Provision is made for furnishing the Administrator with such
statistical data as he may require, and for the adoption of a uniform
contract form which shall be subject to the disapproval of the
Administrator.

ECONOMIC EFFECT OF THE CODE

The Industry employed in 1929 about 200 persons. Sales were
approximately $1,900,000.00. As a result of the President's Re-
Employment Agreement employment was increased approximately
20% in November 1933, in spite of decreased man hour requirements
which were about 40% less in 1929.

As a result the total increase in salaries in the Industry will be
about 25%.

FINDINGS

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said Code
having found as herein set forth, and on the basis of all the pro-
ceedings in this matter

(18)

I find that :

(a) Said Code is well designed to promote the policies and pur-
poses of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery Act, including
removal of obstructions to the free flow of interstate and foreign
commerce which tend to diminish the amount thereof and will pro-
vide for the general welfare by promoting the organization of in-
dustry for the purpose of cooperative action among the 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 full-
est possible utilization of the present productive capacity of indus-
tries, by avoiding undue restrictions of production (except as may
be temporaril}' required), by increasing the consumption of indus-
trial and agi'icultural products through increasing purchasing power,
by reducing and relieving unemployment, by improving standards
of labor, and by otherwise rehabilitating industry.

(b) Said Industry normally employs not more than 50,000 em-
ployees and is not classified by me as a major industry.

(c) The Code as approved complies in all respects with the per-
tinent provisions of said Title of said Act, including without limita-
tion Subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of Section 7, and
Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof; and that the applicant Asso-
ciation is an industrial Association truly representative of the afore-
said Industry; and that said Association imposes no inequitable
restrictions on admission to membership therein.

(d) The Code is not designed to and will not permit monopolies
or monopolistic practices.

(e) The Code is not designed to and will not eliminate or op-
press 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
Code.

For these reasons this Code has been approved.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

A dministrator.
July 27, 1934.

ECONOMIC EFFECTS OF THE CODE

The economic welfare of tliis industry largel}'^ depends on the
revival of capital investment^ partly on revival of construction ac-
tivity. Industrial Oil Burning Equipment is used in generating
heat and/or power for steamships, power-plants, locomotives, dis-
tilleries, breweries, industrial plants, etc. The Unit Equipment de-
fined is used in various types of construction activity and in the arts
and industry.

Annual dollar sales have decreased about twenty percent from
1928 to W.VA. Invested capital has decreased about eight percent
during the same period. The number of wage earners emploj^ed
by this industry decreased about eight percent during the same
period, an increase having been made from 1932 Ioav of about two
percent the latter part of 1933. It is estimated that the industry
employed 440 wage earners in 1928.

No large further increase in employment is anticipated under
the maximum hourly provision of the Code as, although tliere was
an increase in employment under the President's Reemployment
Agreement, the industry is not working in excess of the maximum
hours specified. Trade practice provisions of the Code are expected
to remedy many of the evils that have been prevalent in the past
within this industry.

The Deputy Administrator, in his final report to me on said Code
having found as herein set forth and on the basis of all the pro-
ceedings in this matter :

I find that :

(a) Said Code is well designed to promote the policies and pur-
poses of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery Act, including
removal of obstructions to the free flow of interstate and foreign
commerce wdiich tend to diminish the amount thereof and will pi*o-
vide for the general welfare by promoting the organization of indus-
try for the purpose of cooperative action among trade groups, by
inducing and maintaining united action of labor and management
under adequate governmental sanctions and supervision, by eliminat-
ing unfair competitive practices, by promoting the fullest possible
utilization of the present productive capacity of industries, by avoid-
ing undue restriction of production (except as may be temporarily
required), by increasing the consumption of industrial and agricul-
tural products through increasing purchasing power, by reducing
and relieving unemployment, by improving standards of labor, and
by otherwise reliabilitating industry.

(b) The Code as approved complies in all respects with the per-
tinent provisions of said Title of said Act, including without limi-
tation Subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of Section 7, and
Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof; and that the applicant asso-
ciation is an industrial association truly representative of the afore-
said Industry; and that said association imposes no inequitable re-
strictions on admission to membership therein.

(d) The Code is not designed to and will not eliminate or oppress
small enterprises and will not operate to discriminate against them.

(e) Those engagfed in other steps of the economic process have not
been deprived of the rit>ht to be hoard prior to approval of said
Code.

For these rejisons, therefore, I have approved this Code.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Admdnistrator.

such notice and hearing as he may deem necessary, require an appro-
priate modification of the structure of the Corporation (if consistent
with the law of the State of Incorporation), the substitution of a

Section 1. The standards of fair competition for the industry
with reference to pricing practices are declared to be as follows:

(a) Wilfully destructive price cutting is an unfair method of
competition and is forbidden. Any member of the industry or of
any other industry or the customers of either may at any time com-
j)hun to the Code Authority that any price at which products of
this industry have been sold constitutes unfair competition as de-
structive price cutting, imperiling small enterprise or tending toward
monopoly or the impaii-ment of code wages and working conditions.
The Code Authority shall Avithin five (5) days afford an opportu-
nity to the member filing the price to answer such complaint and
shall within fourteen (14) days make a ruling or adjustment thereon.
If such ruling is not concurred in by either party to the complaint,

below the stated minimum price of such product, in violation of
Section 2 hereof, is forbidden.

Section 2. Emergency Provmons. — (a) If the Administrator,
after investigation shall at any time find both (1) that an emergency
has arisen within the industry adversely affecting small enterprises
or wages or labor conditions, or tending toward monopoly or other
acute conditions which tend to defeat the purposes of the Act; and
(2) that the determination of the stated minimum price for a spec-
ified product within the industry for a period is necessary to mitigate
the conditions ccmstituting such emergency and to effectuate the pur-
poses of the Act, the Code Authority may cause an impartial agency
to investigate costs and to recommend to the Administrator a deter-
mination of the stated minimum price of the product affected by
the emergency and thereujK)n the Administrator may proceed to
determine such stated mininumi price.

(b) When the Administrator shall have determined such stated
minimum price for a specified product for a stated period, which
price shall be reasonably calculated to mitigate the conditions of
such emergency and to effectuate the purposes of the National In-
dustrial Recovery Act, he shall publish such price. Thereafter, dur-
ing such stated period, no member of the industry shall sell such
specified products at a net realized price below said stated minimum
price and any such sale shall be deemed destructive price cutting.

reconsideration or the Administrator may cause any determinations
hereunder to be reviewed or reconsidered and appropriate action
taken.

Section 2. Cost Finding. — The Code Authority shall cause to be
formulated methods of cost finding- and accounting ca])able of use
by all members of the industry, and shall submit such methods to
the Administrator for review. If approved by the Administrator,
full information concerning such methods shall be made available
to all members of the industry. Thereafter, each member of the
industry shall utilize such methods to the extent found practicable.

An application having been duly made pursuant to and in full
compliance with the provisions of Title I of the National Industrial
Recovery Act, approved June 16, 1933, for approval of a Code
of Fair Competition for the Merchant and Custom Tailoring Indus-
try, and hearings having been duly held thereon and the annexed

KEPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White Emise.

Sm: This is a report on the Hearing on the Code of Fair Com-
petition for the Merchant and Custom Tailoring Industry, held in
the Auditorium of the Department of Commerce Building, on Satur-
day, January 27, 1934. The Code which is attached was presented
by duly qualified and authorized representatives of the Industry,
claiming to represent seventy-six per cent (76%) of the Industry.

In accordance with the customary procedure, every pei-son who had
filed a request for an appearance was freely heard in public, and all
statutory and regulatory requirements were complied with.

THE INDUSTRY

The Merchant and Custom Tailoring Industry includes the making
of men's outer garments to the individual measurement of the wearer ;
all operations are performed by hand. The typical worker in the
Industry is called a journeyman tailor. The garments made in the
Custom Tailoring Industry sell at a unit price between seven and
eight times as great as tlie unit price of garments made in the Men's
Clothing Industry. It may therefore be concluded that the products
of the Custom Tailoring Industry are of superior quality and work-
manship.

In 1829 the Industry contained 11,284 firms who employed 23,277
workers. In the year 1929 the Industry produced about 1,700,000
garments valued at $139,000,000 or about $80.00 each.

The Custom Tailoring Industry is subject to considerable seasonal
variation. Customers buy twice yearly; and as the product is
wholly made to order, no stock can be built up out of season. About
half the volume of business is contracted in a third of the year.

There are no reliable figures available on the number of hours
worked per week by employees in this Industry. On the basis of
a questionnaire sent out to 473 members of the Industry, it is esti-
mated that there has been a fourteen and three tenths per cent
(14.3%) increase in employment due to the President's Reemploy-
ment Agreement.

LABOR PROVISIONS OF THE CODE

The Code provides that no employee may be permitted to work in
excess of thirty-six (3G) hours in any one week or eight (8) hours
in any twenty-four (24) hour period, except in an extreme emer-
gency, which emergency shall be certified m writing by the con-
sumer at the time of sale. One and one third (IV^) the normal
rat« shall be paid for all extra work above eight (8) hours per day.

(48)

Student apprentices may be employed for five (5) hours a day and
twenty-five (25) hours a week.

The minimum rate of pay for journeymen tailors shall be sixty-
five cents (65^) an hour in an}^ city of over 100,000 population or
in the immediate trade area thereof; sixty cents (60^') an hour in
any city between 25,000 and 100,000 population or in the immediate
trade area thereof; and fifty-five cents (550) in the remainder of
the United States.

CONSTITUTION OF THE CODE AUTHORITY

The IMerchant and Custom Tailoring National Code Authority is
constituted so that equitable representation will be given to all in-
dustrial and labor groups. The Code Authority consists of thirteen
(13) voting members distributed as follows:

Natwnal Association of Mercliant Tailors of America 7

Pacific Coast Merchant Tailors Association 1

Merchant Tailor Designers Association '. 1

Contractors 3

Non-Association Members 1

Journeymen Tailors Union of America 1

Labor Advisory Board , 1 1

OTHER PROVISIONS

The fair trade practices are all the general provisions suggested
by the Federal Trade Commission with the exception of a provision
which makes it an unfair trade practice for persons not carrjdng
a stock of woolens or trimmings to advertise themselves as Merchant

FINDINGS

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said Code
having found as herein set forth and on the basis of all the proceed-
ings on this matter :

I find that :

(a) Said Code is well designed to promote the policies and pur-
poses of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery Act, including
removal of obstructions to the free flow of interstate and foreign
commerce which tend to diminish the amount thereof and will pro-
vide for the general welfare by promoting the organization of in-
dustry for the purpose of cooperative action among the trade groups,
by inducing and maintaining united action of labor and management
under adequate governmental sanction and supervisions, by elimi-
nating unfair competitive practices, by promoting the fullest possi-
ble utilization of the present productive capacity of industries, by
avoiding undue restriction of production (except as may be tempo-
rarily required), by increasing the consumption of industrial and
agricultural products through increasing purchasing power, by re-
ducing and relieving unemployment, by improving standards of
labor, and by otherwise rehabilitating industry.

(b) Said Industry normally employs not more than 50,000 em-
ployees; and is not classified by me as a major industry.

(c) The Code as approved complies in all respects with the perti-
nent provisions of said Title of said Act, includinc; without limita-
tion Subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of Section 7, and
Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof; and that the applicant associa-
tions are industrial associations truly representative of the aforesaid
Industrj'; and that said associations impose no inequitable restric-
tions on admission to membership therein.

(d) The Code is not designed to and will not permit monopolies
or monopolistic practices.

(e) The Code is 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
Code.

For these reasons, this Code of Fair Competition for the Merchant
and Custom Tailoring Industry has been approved.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Admvnistrator.

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.
Sik: This is a report on the Code of Fair Competition for the
Steel Joist Industry as revised after public hearing conducted in
Washington on December 11th, 1933, in accordance with the provi-
sions of the National Industrial Recovery Act.

THE INDUSTRY

This Industry, like the Reinforcing Materials Fabricating Indus-
try, has developed from a group of Specialists Engineering organi-
zations developing and promoting the use of various types of steel
joists in this country. This Code is drafted along lines paralleling
the Reinforcing Materials Fabricating Industiy's Code. Although
the Industry is small, the public has greatly benefited by its activities
in promoting new products and types of construction and will no
doubt continue to do so.

PROVISIONS FOR HOURS AND WAGES

Except in the case of executives, those employed in supervisory
capacities and in technical work, receiving thirty-five dollars ($35.00)
per week or over and those employed in emergency work involving
breakdowns or requiring protection of life and property, employees
in the Steel Joist Industry are limited to forty (40) hours per week
during any one-half (i/^) calendar year, except during seasonable
periods a maximum of forty-eight (48) hours during not more than
six (6) weeks in any one-half (I/2) calendar year or more than eight
(8) hours in any one (1) day, or more than six (6) days in any one
(1) week.

Persons employed as watchmen may be emploj'^ed not more than
fifty-six (56) hours in any week; six (G) days in any week or ten
(10) hours in any day. Clerical employees shall not be permitted to
work more than forty (40) hours in any one (1) week or more than
eight (8) hours in any one (1) day.

No reclassification of employees for the purpose of defeating the
purposes of the Act is permitted, and no employee is permitted to
work more than the specified maximum hours whether for one or
more employers.

No person under sixteen (IG) years of age is permitted to work
in the Industry, and no person under eighteen (18) years of age shall
be employed in any shop.

The Order of Approval eliminates the wage districts and rates in
the Code which ranged from twenty-five cents (25^) to forty cents
(40^) in twenty-one districts, and establishes minimum rates of
thirty-four cents (34^) in the South and fort}'- cents (40^) elsewhere.
The order also eliminates the provision whereby the Code could have

(65)

been t^^rminat^d at the will of ninety per cent (90%) of the members
of tlie Industry.

ECONOMIC EFFECT OF THE CODE

The Industry for the first ten (10) months of 1933 operated at
about ten and one-half ])er cent (1014%) of the 1929 peak volume,
Avhen employees numbered approximately nine hundred (900). The
present number of employees is about nineteen per cent (19%) of
the number employed during that periotl, or one hundred seventy-
two (172). To increase employment to the 1929 level it would
recpiire the 1930 volume of business and a thirty (30) hour week.

FINDINGS

The Assistant Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on
said Code liaving found as herein set forth and on the basis of all
the proceedings in this matter :
I find that :

(a) Said Code is well designed to promote the policies and pur-
poses of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery Act, including
removal of obstructions to the free flow of interstate and foreign
conunerce which tend to diminisli tlie amount thereof and Avill pro-
vide for the general welfare by promoting the organization of indus-
try for the purpose of cooperative action among the trade groups,
by inducing and maintaining united action of labor and management
under adequate governmental sanctions and supervision, by eliminat-
inoj unfair competitive practices, by promoting the fullest possible
utilization of the present productive capacity of industnes, by avoid-
ing undue restriction of production (excei)t as may be temporarily
required), by increasing the c(msumption of industrial and agricul-
tural products through increasing [)urchasing power, by reducing
and relieving unemployment, by improving standards of labor, and
b}'' otherwise rehabilitating industr3\

(b) Said IndiLstiy normally employs not more than 50,000 em-
ployees; and is not classified by me as a major industry.

(c) The Code as approved complies in all respects with the perti-
nent provisi(ms of said Title of said x\ct, including without limita-
tion Subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of Section 7, and
Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof; and that the a[>plicant asso-
ciation is an industrial association trul}^ representative of the afore-
said IndiLstry; and that said association imposes no inequitable re-
strictions on admission to memb^^rship therein.

(d) The Code is not designed to and will not permit monopolies
or monopolistic practices.

(e) The Code is not designed to and will not eliminate or oppress
small enterprises and will not operate to discriminate against them.

(f ) Tliose engaged in other steps of the economic process have not
been deprived of the right to be heard prior to appro\al of said Code.

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved this Code.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

A dministrator.
August 1, 1934.

apply to or aifect the sale of any steel joist material for direct ship-
ment in export trade by any member of the Industry within the
meaning of the term " export trade " as it is used in the Export
Trade Act, or, unless and to the extent that the Code Authority shall
otherAvise determine, the sale of any product by any such member for
direct shipment to the Philippines, Hawaii or Porto Rico or other
insular possessions of the United States of America.

Section 9. Unfair Practices. — For all purposes of the Code the
following acts shall constitute unfair practices and shall be deemed
to be unfair methods of competition in commerce within the mean-
ing of the Federal Trade Commission Act as amended, and the using
or employing of any of them shall be deemed to be a violation of the
Code, and any member of the Industry which shall directly or in-
directly through any officer, employee, agent or representative use
or employ any of such unfair practices shall be guilty of a violation
of the Code.

(a) No member of the Industiy shall give, permit to be given,
or offer to give anything of value for the purpose of influencing or
rewarding the action of any employee, agent or representative of
another member of the Industry in relation to the business of the
employer of such employee, the principal of such agent or the repre-
sented party, without the knoAv ledge of such employer, principal
or party. Commercial bribery provisions shall not be construed to

I^rohibit free and general distribution of articles commonl}'^ used for
advertisiui; except so far as such article*; are actually used for
commercial briber}' as hereinabove defined.

(b) Procuring, otherwise than with the consent of any member of
the Industry, any information concerning the business of such mem-
ber which is pr()i)erly regarded by it as a trade secret or confidential
within its organization, other than information relating to a viola-
tion of any provisions of the Code.

(c) Imitating or simulating any mark or brand used by any
other member of the Industry, when such imitat on or simulation is
calculated to or may mislead or deceive purchasers or prospective
purchasers.

(d) Using or substituting any material superior or inferior in
quality to that specified by the specifier and purchaser of any steel
joist material or using or substituting any material or an}'' method of
manufacture not in accord wath any applicable law, rule or regula-
tion of any governmental authority.

(e) Cancelling in whole or in ])art, or permitting the cancellation
in whole or in part of any contract of sale of any steel joist material,
except for a fair consideration.

(f) Paying or allowing or offering to any purchaser in connec-
tion with the sale of any steel joist material any rebate, commission,
credit, discount, adjustment, gratuity, gift or similar concession
other than as is permitted by the Code and specified in the contract
of sale.

(g) Disseminating, publishing or circulating any false or mis-
leading information relative to any steel joist material or price for
any product of any member of the Industry, or the credit standing
or ability of any memV^er tliereof to perform any work or fabricate
or produce any steel joist material, or to the conditions of employ-
ment among the employees of any member thereof.

(h) Inducing or attempting to induce by any means any party to
a contract with a member of the Industry to violate such contract.

(i) Aiding or abetting any person, firm, association or corporation
in any unfair practice prohibited under this Code.

(j) iMaking or giving to any purchaser of any steel joist material
any guaranty or protection in any form against decline in the market
price of such steel joist material.

(k) Stating in the in\M)ice of any steel joist material as the date
thereof a date later than the date of shipment of such steel joist
material, or including in any invoice any steel joist material shipped
on a date earlier than the date of such invoice. In the case of lump
sum contracts, the invoices of partial shipments shall be at least
proportionate to the shipments.

(I) iMaking any sale or contract of sale of any steel joist material
under any desc-ription which does not fully describe such steel joist
material in terms customarily used in the Industry.

(m) iMaking any misrepresentations as to the quality, quantity,
origin, or other material condition of any steel joist material or
service.

(n) Where different steel joist materials are contracted for sale
or bid on at the same time or for the same job, failure to itemize

steel joist and other materials as required pursuant to Article V,
Section 2 (a), shall be an unfair trade practice.

(o) Submission of more than one bid or quotation whether verbal
or written to any purchaser or prospective purchaser on any speci-
fied material on a definite project, except (1) in the event of a
material change in the plans and specifications of the project, or
(2) in the event that such bid or quotation has not been accepted in
the period named for acceptance in such bid or quotation, (3) in
tlie event of a decrease in the published prices of the producers of
the raw material in question, notification of which shall have been
given by the Secretary to the members of the Industry. Xothing
in this ride shall be deemed to prevent a member of the Industry from
correcting any typographical or other unintentional mistake provided
that notice of any such correction shall first be given to the Secretary.

(p) Acceptance of any form of paper or security in payment at
more than the true value thereof.

States with the full name of the country of origin on each piece;
provided, however, that this rule shall not be applicable to stocks of
foreign steel in the possession of, or owned by members of the
Industry and actually in this country at the effective date of the
Code and listed with the Secretary on or before such date, who shall
also be notified of all shipments from such stocks and the date they
are exhausted.

(s) Entering into contracts for steel joist materials without
actual obligation on the part of the buyer to purchase any specific
quantit}" for delivery either within a specified time, or for any
j)articular job or jobs.

(t) Making the acceptance of a separately jjriced material other
than steel joists and accessories in a quotation, or the making of
another quotation for other than steel joists and accessories, contin-
gent upon the acceptance of a quotation for steel joist material.

(u) To ship or receive steel joist materials on consignment.

(v) To render or secure inspection services (except regular mill
test reports) at other than the actual and customary rate charged
for such inspection services by established inspection organizations.

Section 10. Penalties and damages.— Kny violation of any pro-
visions of the Code by any member of the Industry shall constitute
a violation of the Code by such member and shall subject such
member to the full statutory penalties by the applicable statutes
made and provided; provided, however, that the following additional
damages shall be assessable against, and the following paragraphs of
this Section 10 shall apply only to such members of the Industry as
shall have signed and delivered to the Secretary a letter substantially
in accordance with the form contained in Schedule B attached hereto
and provided further that no member of the Industry failing to
sign such letter of assent shall be denied any of his full rights, priv-
ileges and benefits under this code as long as the same by the terms
hereof shall continue in effect.

(a) Reconrnizinf;: that the \'iolation by any member of the In-
dustry of any provision of the Code will disrupt the normal course
of fair competition in the Industry and cause serious damage to mem-
bers of the Code and that it may be difficult fairly to assess the
amount of such damage to any member of the Code or the public,
it is hereby agreed by and among all members of the Code that
each member of the Code who shall violate any such provision shall,
unless otherwise specified by the Code Authority, pay to the Code
Authority, in trust, as and for lif{uidated damages the sum of ten
dollars ($10.00) per ton of any steel joist materials, or twenty per-
cent {20'}i ) of the entire sales price of any contract for sale of steel
joist nuiterials, whichever is the larger, sold or contracted for sale
by such member in violation of any such provision.

(b) Upon the complaint of any member of the Code that any act
of any member of tlie Code ccmstitutes an unfair practice under the
Code, the Code Authorit}^ i^^ay provide for the investigation, hear-
ing and decision of such comphaint through such conunittce, im-
partial tribunal or otherwise as it may from time to time determine
and except as otherwise in this Article provided, the Code Authority
or such committee or other tribunal may assess such liquidated
danuiges or other jx'ualty or take such other action to refer the com-
])laint to the Administrator or such other governmental authority as
it may deem necessary or desirable in order to effectuate the policy
of the Act or the provisions of this Code.

(c) All amounts so paid or collected under this Article shall be
used by the Code Authority for the more eifective administration
and application of the Code and may be applied pro rata in the
reduction of the assessments of all members of the Code hereinbe-
fore provided for.

(d) Anything in the Code to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Code Authority b}^ the affirmative vote of two-thirds of the wdiole
Code Authority may waive any liability for or reduce the amount
of any liquidated damages imposed by or pursuant to any provision
of the Code for any violation of any provisions thereof, if in its
descretion it shall decide that such violation was innocently made or
that there were extenuating circumstances and that the collection of
such damages will not to an}^ material extent tend to effectuate the
I^olicy of the Act.

Article VI — IModifications

1. This Code and all the provisions thereof are expressly made
subject to the right of the President, in accordance with the provi-
sions of subsection (b) of Section 10 of the National Industrial Re-
covery Act, from time to time to cancel or modify any order, ap-
proval, license, rule or regulation isued under Title I of said Act and
specifically, but without limitatioUj to the right of the President to
cancel or modify his approval of this Code or any conditions imposed
by him ui)on his approval thereof.

2. This Code, except as to provisions required by the Act, may
be modified on the basis of experience or changes in circumstances,
such modification to be based upon application to the Administrator
by the Code Authority and such notice and hearing as he shall spec-
ify, and to become effective on his approval.

Article VII — Monopolies

No provision of this Code shall be so applied as to permit monop-
olies or monopolistic practices, or to eliminate, oppress or discriminate
against small enterprises.

Article VIII — Effective Date

This Code shall become effective on the second Monday after its
approval by the President.

Article IX

Whereas the policy of the Act to increase real purchasing power
will be made impossible of consummation if prices of goods and
services increase as rapidly as wages, it is recognized that price
increases except such as may be required to meet the seller's individ-
ual cost should be delayed, and that such increases when made should,
so far as possible, be limited to actual additional increases in the
seller's costs.

Article X

The Code shall continue in effect until June 16, 1935, or until any
earlier date upon which the Act shall cease to be in effect or until
the members of the Code shall excercise in the manner hereinafter
provided, the power which they hereby reserve to terminate the
Code at any time after the expiration of sixty (GO) days from the
effective date of the Code by the agreement of ninety per cent (90%)
of all the members of the Code to such termination. Such agi'eement
shall be evidenced in writing and shall take effect ten (10) days after
the date of its submission to the President. Upon the termination
of the Code in the manner hereinbefore provided, all obligations and
liabilities under the Code shall cease, except those for unpaid assess-
ments theretofore made in accordance v^dth the provisions of the
Code and those for liquidated damages wliich may have theretofore
accrued under any provisions of the Code.^

SCHEDULE O

Standard Stecifi cations For Stej-:l Joists

Adopted by the Steel Joist Institute, December 20, 192S. Effective February 1,
1029. Revised December 12, 1933

1. D(finitiov,».^Auy steel beam or truss shaped steel member suitable for
supporting floors and roofs when used for floor filling between the main sup-
porting girders, beams or wiills, shall be known as a steel joist. Such joists
may be made of rolled shaped or strips of sheet steel, round bars, angles or
specially rolled bars riveted or welded together, or by expanding rolled shapes,
or by any other method conijilying with the refjuirements of this article.

2. Maicrials. — All steel used shall conform to the standards of the American
Society for Testing Materials for stnictural sleel for building designated as
A9-2!).'

All joists shall receive one coat of good paint by dipping or spraying before
leaving the shop.

3. Connections. — The joints and connections of all steel joists shall be made
by connecting the members directly to one another by electric-arc. spot or
pressure welds or by rivets. In the case of expanded joists, a portion of the
metal may be left intact to form a connection. All joints and connections shall
be capable of withstanding a stress at least three (3) times the designed stress
and shall be sufficiently rugged to resist the stresses incident to handling and
erection when handled in a reasonable nuinner. All intermediate joints shall be
designed so as to be as symmetrical as jiosslble and in no case shall the eccen-
tricity of any such joint exceed thrtH'-quarters ('Yi) of the least diameter of
the largest bar connected, but end niendxu's may be designed as projecting
beams. Stresses arising from eccentricity shall be includetl with other stresses
in designing all members.

NoTT':. — Experience shows that the stress arising from careless handling
is much greater than that sustained by the connection while working at
full load.

4. Methods of Design and Stresses. — (a) Steel joists having solid webs shall
be designed as beams. The maximum fibre stress in tension and compression
shall not exceed eighteen thousand (18.000) pounds per square inch. The
maximum distance from any part of eompressiim flange to the web shall not
exceed thirty (30) times the thickness of the flange metal. The web shear
shall not excetn^l that allowed in the Standard Specifications of the Ameri-
can Institute of Steel Construction published December, 1027. Webs made of
two or more sheets of metal shall be considered as seinirate members, each
carrying its share of the shear.

(b) Steel joists built up of bars or other sections and those fabricated by ex-
panding rolled sections shall be designed as trusses. The compression stresses in
l)0unds per square ineli in the top chord or

18 000
diagonals shall not exceed 15,000 nor — ^i

I8,ooor

when the Jength, 1, of the member is taken as the distance cleft r of welds or
other attachments, and r is the least radius of gyration in the case of diagonal
and vertical mend)ers and the radius of gyration of the top chord or any com-
ponent part thereof. The top chord shall be considered t() be stayed laterally
at fianel points, by the slab above. The ratio of 1 to r shall not exceed 120.
In comi)Uting the resistance of joists to construction loads as required in Sec-
tion 7, the t(jp cho)-d shall satisfy the additional requirements that it shall safely
carry the required compression using 1 as the distance between lines of bridg-
ed)

iug and r as the least radius of gyration around the vertfcal axis but the ratio
of 1 to r in this case may be not exceeding 2lX>. No bending stresses shall he
assumed in top chords of trusses supporting poure<l concrete slabs which have
a thickness of more than one-fourteenth (Yn) of the distance between vertical
supports under the tup cliord. but for joints supporting concrete slabs thinner
than this and joists supporting wood flooi-s, the theoretical bending stress for a
uniform load shall be computed and subtracted from the allowable stress at the
center of the panel. Combhied axial compression and bending stress at points
of vertical support of the top chord shall not exceed eighteen thousand (18,000)
pounds per square inch. The unit tenside stress shall not exceed eighteea
thousand (18.000) iwunds in any member.

Note. — This paragraph does not require that bending stress shall be
figured if a concrete slab two (2) or more inches thick is used with woo4l
sleepers embedded as described in section 9, paragraph (b) and (c) of this
specification, nor does it require bending stresses to be figured when a wood
sleeper parallel to the joist and resting on top of the joist is of sufficient
size to satisfactorily carry the loads from panel point to panel point.

5. Span. — The span of joists having an all steel top chord shall not exceed
five hundred and fifty (550) times the radius of gyration of the top chord iu
a plane i>ei-pendicular to the web of the joist, but in case the top chord con-
sists of a flat top section continuous with a center web, the radius of gyration
of the top plate alone shall be taken. In the case of joists having a top
chord of steel with a wood mailing strip attacked, the span shall not exceed
one hundred sixty (160) times the total width of the top chord. The span
shall not exceed twenty-four (24) times the depth of the steel portion of the
joist.

6. Spacing. — The spachig of the joists shall not be greater than the safe
span of the top slab or flooring over the joists, and in no case shall be greater
than twenty-four (24) inches in floors and thirty (30) inches iu roofs, except
that steel joists may be used to support wood or sheet metal roofs only if
not over seven (7) feet apart.

7. Erection. — Joists shall have a l>earing of at least four (4) inches on
masonry or reinforced concrete, and at least two and one-half (2^^) inches
on steel. The unit bearing pressure on masonry and concrete shall not exceed
two hundred (200) pounds per square inch, and on steel shall not exceed one
thousand (1,000) pounds per square inch. Every third joist shall be anchored
to concrete or masonry support with an anchor equivalent to a three-eighths
(%) inch round. The ends of all joists supported on masonry walls shall be
bedded in mortar. All joists supported on steel beams shall be secured with
a hook made of not less than three-sixteenths ( A ) inch bar fastened over the
flange of the beam, except iu the case of buihlings having a height of more
than twice the least dimension of the base, in which case each joist shall be
welded to the steel work with two (2) welds at ench end. each one (1) inch
long, or by means of a one-half (lA) inch bolt or rivet at each end. In the
case of all joists which are not either welded, bolted or rivetetl to supports the
top lath or other top slab centering shall be cut away to permit concrete or
top slab to fill space around joists and seal ends.

All joists shall be fastened in place and permanent bridging installed before
any construction loads, except the weight of the necessary workmen to install
bridging, is placed upon the joists.

The joists when erected and bridged shall be capable of safely sustaining
a load of eight hundred (800) pounds at any panel joint on any one joist.

Note. — In all framed structures, the frame should be designed to carry

all wind load without assistance from the floor construction. In the case,

however, of relatively high slender buildings, it is provided that the joists

shall be welded to supports to give stiffness. In the case of relatively

low buildings, this is not necessary and it is provided only that the joists

shall be hooked over supports to guard against accidental dislodgment

during erection. In the case of fires, the greatest part of the damage is

due to the expansion of structural members. In the case of steel joists,

expansion across the run of joists is of course impossible, and by leaving

the ends free, expansion in the direction of the joists will be rendered

harmless.

Refore being bridged, steel joists cannot be expected to sustain considerable

loads, especially moving loads common in building constniction. Loading of

unstayed joists may easily result in construction accidents.

S. Bridfiing. — As soon as joists have boon eroctod, bridging: shall bo installed
between them before the application of constrnction loads. This bridsiUfT shall
be adequate to safely support the top ihord asainst lateral movement during
the construction period and shall hold the joists in an approximately vertical
plane passini; throiijih the bearings. If diajional bridginj; is used in which all
diagonal members will resist only tension, they sb-iU not be less in area than
a three-sixteenth ( I'rs ) incli round rod, and these diagonals shall be supple-
mented by a continuous strut bclween the top chords of all joists so bridged.
This top strut shall be equivalent as a strut to a half-inch round steel bar.
If diagonal members are used which are capid)le of resisting Ixith tension and
compression, the top strut may be omirted, but positive provision must be
made at the end of each run of bridging to hold the tirst two joists in a
vertical plane. These diagonal struts shall be capable of transferring five
huudred (5(10) pounds from each joist to the adjoining joists. In case bridging
in the form of horizontally placed beam or angle sections is provided, it must;
be adequate to transfer not le.'s than five hundred (5tX)) pounds from each
joist to the adjoining joists without apjireciable deflection, and it must also be
so connected to the joists that it will supjtort the top chords against lateral
movement and hold the joists approximately in a vertical plane. Fourteen
(14) gauge wire diagonals shall be used to secure the bottom chord at each lino
of bridging of this type. Wire may be omitted when a portal bridging is used
which restrains both top and bottom chords and transmits the load required
herein.

The number of lines of bridging provided shall bo in accinnlance with the
following table :

Span Number of Lines of Bridj^'ing

Up to 14 feet One row, near center

34 to 21 feet Two rows approximately % span apart

21 to 82 feet Tiu-ee rows

In the case of joists provided with nailer strips carrying a wood deck, the
wood deik may be used as the toji mend)er of the bridging system.

1). f/.vcs- of Steel Joiat.s. — (a) When used in any construction where wood
joists are permitted, steel joists may have a woo<l nailing strip attached to the
top chord and a wood floor may be used over such joists.

(!)) One hour fire resistance: Steel joists with or without a wood nailing
strip above, when protected with a ceiling of metal lath and jilaster three-
quarters {%) inch thick may be used wherever a one hour fire resistance is
lequired. A wood top floor may be use(4 in such cases.

(c) Two liour fire resistance: Steel joists protected with a ceiling of metal
lath and gypsum or portland cement plaster at least three-quarters (%) inch
thick may be used wherever a two honr fire resistance is required. Joists for
this inirpose shall not have any wood nailing strip attached thereto and shall
be covered with a toi» slab of concrete at least two (2) inches thick cast upon
metal lath or other incombustible material. Wood nailing strips may be em-
bedded in tills concrete slab if protected on the bottom with not less than one
(1) inch of concrete.

(d) Three-hour fire resistance: Steel joists protected with a ceiling of
metal lath and gyi)suni or portaiid cement plaster at least one (1) inch thick
may l)e used wliere a three hour fire resistance is required. Joists for this pur-
pose shall not have any wood attached and shall be covered on top by at least
two and one-half (2M;) inches of solid concrete. No wood nailing strii)s shall
be used in such toj) slab.

(e) F(nir-bour fire resistance: Steel joists protected on the bottom with a
poui-od or precast reinforced gypsum slab not less than two (2) inche.s thick
and otherwise in accordance with paragraph (d) above may be used wherever
a four-hour fire resistance is recpiired.

NoTK. — Tests made by (he Bureau of Standards show that ten (10)
pounds of wood, paper or other combustible are required for each square
foot of floor space to sustain a fire equivalent in intensity to a one-hour
stand;ird fire test. Similarly, twenty (20) pounds of combustibh^ will
produce a two-hour fiie, thirty (.10) pounds a three-hour and about thirty-
seven CM) i)ounds a four-hour fire.
In order that a structure may safely resist the complete burning of its con-
tents, it is only necessary that all the elements of the construction should
tsafely withstand a fire slightly greater than the maximum that can be supported

by its total contents. Usually, a factor of safety of one and one-half (li^)
Is used based upon the average combustible contents.

The combustible contents of the following occupancies including wood floor
finish, trim and doors is ordinarily not greater than ten (lU) pounds so that
a two-hour protection would give a more than ample factor of safety : Dwell-
ings, apartments, liotels, hospitals, schools, colleges, theatres, (except stage),
churches, assembly halls, lodge halls, offices (except record storage) and manu-
facturing buildiiigs used for labricating metal or other incombustible materials.
Storage rooms in any of the above occupancies, such as locker rooms in apart-
ments, carpentry shops in hotels and hospitals and record vaults in oflices,
will often contain considerably more combustible than this and should be
l)rotected for a four-hour tire.

Mercantile buildings, factories and warehouses vary considerably in com-
bustible contents and are usually protected for a three or four hour period.
No mention is made of the protection to beams and colunms which are outside
of the province of this stantlard.

10. Decks a>id Top 8lah.s. — Decks or top slabs of wood, concrete, gypsum or
other material shall be assumed to stay the top chords of joists laterally but
shall not be assumed to carry any part of the compression stress.

Flat wood decks of single thickness of seven-eighths (%) inch material shall
not have a span of more than twenty (20) inches for floors, or thirty (30)
inches for roofs, and those uiade with one and tive-eighths (1%) inch material
shall not have a span of more than five (5) feet in any case. All such decks
shall be securely fastened to the wood nailer strips.

Toured structural slabs of concrete, gypsum or other material shall not be
less than two (2) inches thick. They shall be poured uixju three-eighths (%)
incii riiibed metal hub weighing not less than four (4j pounds per yard tor
spans not exceeding twenty-four (24) inches and upon three-quarters (%.)
inch rib lath weighing not less than .46 jwunds per .square foot for spans not
exceeding thirty (30) inches. The ribs of rib lath shall not be more than
six (G) inches on centers. Other incombustible material at least equivalent
in strength and stiffness may be used in place of lath. This lath or other
centering shall be attached by substantial clips or soft wood wedges to the top
chord of each joist at intervals of not over eight (8) inches. When no wooden
top floor is to be placed over such slabs, they shall be adequately reinforced
witli mesh or rods in addition to the lath to safely resist both positive and
negative bending with due allowance for probable load concentrations.

Note. — No material should be used as centering for the top slab which
must be stretched across the top chord of joists or vvhich will exert an
undue lateral pull on the top chords of the joists during the pouring of
concrete.

11. Dc/levtion. — The deflection due to the designed live load shall not exceed
one three hundred and sixtieth (1/360) of the span. The i^ermanent deflection
resulting from b.ading a finished floor to twice the designed live load for
twelve (12) hours .shall not exceed twenty (20) percent of the total deflection
for this load.

12. I'avior of safely. — The maximum total load at failure shall not be less
than two (2) times the total designed load of joists as computed by using
the stresses permitted herein when tested with bridging and top slab using a
uniform load.

Note. — Steel joists are not intended to act as structural membei-s except
as temporary suiiporting members during construction. With steel joists
just as in the case of wood joists, the lateral support of the top deck is
an essential element of construction. The performance of a steel joist
floor construction can only be determined by applying the top deck and
testing with a uniform load. Concrete decks of quick setting cement can
be tested at the end of 24 hours.

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir: This is a report on the Code of Fair Competition for the
Industry of Collective Manufacturing for Door-to-Door Distribu-
tion and on the Hearing conducted thereon in Washington, D.C. on
April 24, 1934.

The members of this Industry are engaged in the collective manu-
facture of several classes of products, in the production of which
machinery and labor are used intercliangeably. A further pecu-
liarity which segregates them from other manufacturers of similar
products is their method of distribution, which is through their own
dealers, or agents, by door-to-door selling. The members of this
Industry do not distribute their products through the regular out-
lets used b}^ manufacturers of similar products, and thus there is no
direct competitive conflict between this Code and other approved
Codes for these products. Considerable study and investigation has
convinced the Deputy Administrator that an attempt to make these
manufacturers comply with the various Codes covering their prod-
ucts would be burdensome if not iin]:)0ssible and that less adminis-
trative detail will be involved under a separate Code of Fair
Competition.

FINDINGS

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said Code
having found as herein set forth and on the basis of all the proceed-
ings in this matter;

I find that:

(a) Said Code is well designed to promote the policies and pur-
poses of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery Act, including
removal of obstructions to the free flow of interstate and foreign
commerce which tend to diminish the amount thereof and will pro-
vide for the rjeneral welfare by promoting the organization of
industry for tlie ])urp<)se of cooperative action among the trade
groups, by inducing and maintaining united action of labor and
management under adequate governmental sanctions and sui)er-
vision, by eliminating unfair competitive practice, by promoting the
fullest possible utilization of the present production capacity of in-
dustries, 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 otlierwise rehabilitating industry.

(b) Said Indu.-try normal!}' employs not more than 50,000 em-
ployees; and is not classified by me as a major industry.

(c) The Code as approved complies in all respects with the perti-
nent provisions of said Title of said Act, including without limita-

(94)

tion Subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of Section 7, and
Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof; and that the applicant group
is an industrial group truly representative of the aforesaid Industry ;
and that said group nnposes no inequitable restrictions on admission
to membership therein.

(d) The Code is not designed to and will not permit monopolies
or monopolistic practices.

(e) The Code is 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
Code.

For these reasons, this Code of Fair Competition for the Industry
of Collective Manufacturing for Door-to-Door Distribution has been
approved.

Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Administrator.

ably possible, be limited to actual increases in the seller's costs.

well designed to promote the policies and purposes of Title I of
the National Industrial Recovery Act including the removal of ob-
structions to the free flow of interstate and foreign commerce which
tend to diminish the amount thereof, and wnll provide for the general
welfare by promoting the organization of industry for the purpose of
cooperative action of labor and management under adequate govern-
mental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair competitive
practices, by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the present
productive caj^acity 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 unemploy-
ment, by improving standards of labor, and b}^ otherwise rehabilitat-
ing industry.

(b) The Code as modified complies in all respects with the perti-
nent provisions of said title of said Act, including without limitation
sub-section (a) of Section 3. sub-section (a) of Section T and sub-
section (b) of Section 10 thereof.

(d) The modification and the Code as modified are not designed to
and will not ])ermit monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(e) The modification and the Code as modified are not designed to
and will not eliminate or oppress small enterprises and will not
ojjerate 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 this modification has been approved.

IIEPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir: In the Order of Approval of the Code of Fair Competition
for the Funeral Service Industry, Section 13 of Article VII was
amended by chaniiing the period to a comma after the word " serv-
ice " in the ninth line thereof and adding the following :

•' Provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section shall
supersede any state law which by its terms permits any of the
practices described herein by members of the industry."

After the approval of the Funeral Service Industry Code the
original proponents of the Code as well as several members of the
Industry conferred with me and it develops that the wording of this
last paragraph of m^^ Order of Approval of this Code is not clear,
as to its intent.

Therefore in order to maintain the original intent of the last para-
graph of the order of ajDproval and to clarify its meaning, I recom-
mend the modification of this last paragraph by substituting the
following:

" Provided, however, that nothing contained in this section shall
supersede any state law which by its terms expressly authorizes a
member of this industry to organize, promote, participate in and
operate a form of enterprise prohibited herein."

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

■Sir: This is a report on the modifications to the Code of Fair
Competition for the Fur Dressing and Fur Dyeing Industry, on
which a public hearing was held on July 10, 1934.

The first modification will enable the majority of the members
of the Code Authority Board to recommend such modifications to
the Code as will be beneficial to the entire industry. This will facili-
tate efficient working of the Code Authority.

The second modification empowers the Administrator to suspend
any action of the Code Authority to afford an opportunity for in-
vestigation of the merits of such action, and thereby assures the
Administrator that all actions of the Code Authority will be to the
best interest of the industry and the public.

The Deputy Administrator in his hnal report to me on said modi-
fications of said code having found as herein set forth and on the
basis of all the proceedings in this matter :

I find that:

(a) The modification of said code and the code as modified are
well designed to promote the policies and purposes of Title I of the
National Industrial Recovery Act including the removal of obstruc-
tions to the free flow of interstate and foreign commerce which
tend to diminish the amount thereof, and will provide for the gen-
eral welfare by promoting the organization of trade for the purpose
of cooperative action of labor and management under adequate gov-
ernmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair competi-
tive practices, by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the
present productive capacity of industries, by avoiding undue restric-
tion of production (except as may be temporarily required), by in-
creasing the consumption of industrial and agricultural products
through increasing purchasing power, by reducing and relieving un-
employment, by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise
rehabilitating industry.

(b) The Code as modified complies in all respects with the per-
tinent provisions of said Title of said Act, including without limi-
tation sub-section (a) of Section 3, sub-section (a) of Section 7 and
3ub-section 10 thereof.

(c) The modification and the code as modified are not designed to
and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(d) The modification and the code as modified are not designed
to and will not eliminate or oppress small enterprises and will not
operate to discriminate against them.

(126)

127

(e) Those engaged in other steps of the economic iDroces3 have not
been deprived of the right to be heard prior to approval of said
modification.
For these reasons this modification has been approved.

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White Bouse.

Sir : This is a report on the proposed amendments to the Code of
Fair Competition for the Oxy-Acetylene Industry as approved by
you on December 15, 1933. The public hearing on all but one of
these amendments was held in the City of Washington, D. C. on
May 15 and IG. 11)3-1. The additional amendment was filed subse-
quent to this hearing and a notice of opportunity to be heard was
published on June 29, 1934. Full opportunity was given to all
interested parties to appear or to be heard.

The purposes and effects of the amendments on which the public
hearing was held are as follows:

Amendment No. 1 revises the definition of " member of the In-
dustry " to clarify same and amendment No. 2 eliminates the defini-
tion of " member of the Code " which is unnecessary.

Amendment No. 3 adds definitions for " reseller " and " consumer ",
terms used in subsequent amendments.

Amendment No. 4 exempts from the maximum hours provisions
employees working in a technical capacity, who receive more than
$35.00 per week. This is because the operation of plants frequently
depends on the work of employees of a technical capacity.

Amendment No. 5 changes the method of election of the Super-
vising Agencv. It provides that five out of ten members of the
Supervising Agency shall be elected on a basis of dollar volume of
the business and that the other five members shall be elected by
equal votes cast by units of the Industry.

Amendment No. 6 deletes Section 4 of Article VI as the subject
matter of this section is covered in amendment No. 5.

Amendment No. 7 merely changes the designation number of Sec-
tion 5 of Article VI.

Amendment No. 8 provides for the appointment of a Trade Prac-
tice Committee in accordance with Administration policy.

Amendment No. 9 enables the Supervising Agency to incur such
reasonable obligations as are necessary for the administration of the
Code. It requires that the Supervising Agency submit for approval
of the Administrator an itemized budget and an equitable basis of
pro-rating the assessments to be collected from the members of the
Industry. Payment of an equitable contribution to the expenses of
the Supervising Agency by members of the Industry is made manda-
tory by this amendment if their principal line of business is covered
by this Code.

Amendment No. 10 changes the designation by number of Article
VII to Article VII-A, Trade Practices — General Provisions.

Amendment No. 11 applies to Section 3 of Article VII (to be Ar-
ticle VII-A) and provides two optional methods of calculating

(130)

131

rental. The Code as approved did not contain any specification as
to the method of calculating rental.

Amendment No. 12 pertains to Section 4 of Article VII (tob(*
Article VII-A) and provides that the price to be charged for alt
gases ,sold may be an f.o.b. freight station price as well as an f.o.b.
plant or warehouse price. This amendment is of benefit to the con-
sumer because when shipments are made by rail no charge is made
for delivery of the goods from plant or warehouse to the freight
station.

Amendment No. 13 is a revision of Section 8 of Article VII (to be
Article VII-A). It exempts medical gases sold on a gallonage basis
for medical use only from the application of Sections 3, 4, 6 and 11.

Amendment No. 14 places in the Code as Section 9 of Article VII
(to be Article VII-A) the standard bribery trade practice provision.

Amendment No. 15 provides as a new Section 10 of Article VII
(to be Article VII-A) for the prohibition of lending, leasing or
giving away of apparatus under certain conditions. This provision
represents a compromise of different provisions proposed, by two
factions of the Industry, namely, those manufacturers interested in
the manufacture and sale of gas and apparatus and those interested
in the manufacture and sale of apparatus only. Because of the con-
troversial nature of this provision the Supervising Agency voted at
their meeting on June 6 and 7, 1934, to postpone action on same.
An agreement was reached later and eight out ten members of the
Supervising Agency have assented, one member not voting.

Amendment No. 16 places in the Code a new Section 11 of Article
VII (to be Article VII-A) pertaining to agreements between mem-
bers of the Industry and resellers or gas. It is required that re-
sellers of gas are bound in the handling of such products to comply
with the provisions of Sections 1, 3 and 4 of Article VII (to be
Article VII-A), provided, however, that nothing in this section shall
be construed to mean that resellers of gas are bound to file the same
rental or delivery charges filed by any member of the Industry.
There are no provisions in the Code concerning the prices at which
the products of the Industry are sold nor does it include any provi-
sion for the open filing of prices. All resellers of gas received a
notice of the public hearing and all objections were met in revising
the provision as proposed for approval.

Amendment No. 17 creates Article VII-B and provides trade
practice provisions, which are self-explanatory, for the medical gas
division of the business.

Amendment No. 18 changes the term " members of the Code "
wherever used in the Code as approved to read " members of the
Industry."

The purpose and efi^ect of the amendment which was submitted
subsequent to those on which the public hearing was held is as
follows :

Amendment No. 19 places in the Code a new Section 12 of Article
VII (to be Article VII-A) and provides, in connection with con-
tracts in effect prior to the effective date of the Code, that the trade
practice provisions contained in Sections 3, 4 and 5 of Article VII
(to be Article VII-A) shall not apply if they were not specified in
such contracts but that said provisions shall apply with re?pect to

132

extended or renewal periods of any such contract when extended or
-renewed by a member of the Industry. This amendment clears up a
difficulty which the Industry has experienced in connection with con-
^tracts which were in effect prior to the effective date of the Code.

FINDINGS

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said amend-
ments to said Code having found as herein set forth and on the
basis of all the proceedings in this matter:

I find that:

i(a) The amendments 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 ob-
structions 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 tlie organization of inchistry for the purpose
of cooperative action of labor and management under adequate gov-
ernmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair competi-
tive practices, by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the
present productive capacity of industries, by avoiding undue restric-
tion of production (except as may be temporarily required), by in-
creasing the consumption of industrial and agricultural products
through increasing purchasing power, by reducing and relieving un-
employment, by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise

on members of the Industry either to require correction of any re-
})orted infraction of such Sections by a reseller or to terminate its

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir : This is a report on the amendment of the Code of Fair Com-
petition for the Bedding Manufacturing- Industry as approved by
me January 23, 1934. Application Avas made under date of May 4,
1934, by the Code Authority for the Bedding Manufacturing Indus-
try, for amendment of the provisions of Article VIII of the Code.
Fair notice of opportunity to file objections to this proposed amend-
ment was given to all interested parties.

This amendment is drawn up and has been proposed in accordance
with Office Memorandum No. 228, dated June 7, 1934. It is intended
to permit the prohibition, in times of emergency, of the sale of
products below minimum prices to be determined.

This amendment does not in any way affect the labor provisions
of the Code.

The Assistant Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on
said amendment to said Code having found as herein set forth and on
the basis of the proceedings in this matter :

I find 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 obstruc-
tions to the free flow of interstate and foreign commerce which tend
to diminish the amount thereof and will provide for the general
welfare by ])romoting the organization of industry for the purpose
of cooperative action of labor and management under adequate
governmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair com-
petitive 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 prod-
ucts 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 provision of said Title of said Act, including without limitation
sub-section (a) of Section 3, sub-section (a) of Section 7, and sub-
section (b) of Section 10 thereof.

(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 oper-
ate to discriminate against them.

(140)

141

(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.

I believe the amendment to be fair to labor, to the consmner, and to
the industry, and for these reasons, therefore, I have approved this
amendment.

Kespectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Adtninistrator.

AMENDMENT TO CODE OF FAIR COMPETITION FOR THE
BEDDING :MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY

Article VIII of the Code of Fair Competition for the Bedding
Manufacturing^ Industry, shall be and herebj^ is amended b}' the
addition thereto of the following paragraphs :

" (a) If the Administrator, after investigation shall at any time
find both (1) that an emergency has arisen within the industry
adversely affecting small enterprises or wages or labor conditions,
or tending toward monopoly or other acute conditions which tend
to defeat the purposes ot the Act; and (2) that the determination
of the stated minimum price for a specified product within the
industry for a limited period is necessary to mitigate the conditions
constituting such emergency and to effectuate the purposes of the
Act, the Code Authority may cause an impartial agency to in-
vestigate costs and to recommend to the Administrator a determina-
tion of the stated minimum price of the product affected bj' the
emergency and thereupon the Administrator may proceed to de-
termine such stated minimum price.

'• (b) "When the Administrator shall have determined such stated
minimum price for a specified product for a stated period, which
price shall be reasonably calculated to mitigate the conditions of
such emergency and to effectuate the purposes of the National In-
dustrial Recovery Act, he shall publish such price. Thereafter, dur-
ing such stated p.eriod, no member of the industry shall sell such
specified products at a net realized price below said stated minimum
price and any such sale shall be deemed destructive price cutting.
From time to time, the Code Authority may recommend review or
reconsideration or the Administrator may cause any determinations
hereunder to be reviewed or reconsidered and appropriate action
taken."

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

llie White House.

Sir: An application has been duly made pursuant to and in full
compliance with the provisions of the National Industrial Recovery
Act, for an amendment to the Code of Fair Competition for the
Electric Storage and Wet Primary Batt-ery Industry, submitted by
the Code Authority for the said Industry,

The existing provision of Article IX of the Code for said Industry
is entirely inadequate in view of Executive Order 6678. dated April
14, 1934, and Administrative Order X-36, dated May 26, 1934, and
it is therefore evident that the proposed amendment to Article VI
of said Code, the provisions of which follow closely the text of the
above mentioned Orders, will overcome the existing inadequate
provisions.

FINDINGS

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said amend-
ment to said Code having found as herein set forth and on the basis
of all the proceedings in this matter:

I find 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 among trade groups, by inducing and
maintaining united action of labor and management under adequate
governmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair com-
petitive practices, by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the
present productive capacity of the industries, by avoiding undue
restrictions of production (except as may be temporarily required),
by increasing the consumption of industrial and agricultural prod-
ucts through increasing purchasing poAver, by reducing and reliev-
ing unemployment, by improving standards of labor, and by other-
wise 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

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir: An application has been duly made pursuant to and in full
compliance with the provisions of the National Industrial Recovery
Act, for an amendment to the Code of Fair Competition for the Fire
ExtintTuishino; Appliance Manufacturing Industry, submitted by the
Code Authority for the said Industry.

The existing provision of Article VI Section 2 (h) of the Code
for said Industry is entirely inadequate in view of Executive Order
6678, dated April 14, 1934, and Administrative Order X-36, dated
May 26, 1934, and it is therefore evident that the proposed amend-
ment to Article VI of said Code, the provisions of which follow
closely the text of the above mentioned Orders, will overcome the
existing inadequate provisions.

FINDINGS

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said amend-
ment to said Code having found as herein set forth and on the basis
of all the proceedings in this matter :

I find 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 obstruc-
tions 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 inclustry 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 prac-
tices, by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the present
productive capacity of the industries, by avoiding undue restrictions
of production (except as may be temporarily required), by increasing
the consumption of industrial and agricultural products through in-
creasing purchasing power, by reducing and relieving unemployment,
by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise rehabilitating
industry.

(d) The amendment and the Code as amended are not designed to
and will not eliminate or oppress small enterprises and will not
(»perat€ to discriminate against them.

(152)

153

(e) 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, I have approved this amendment.

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir: Under the Code of Fair Competition for the Lumber and
Timber Products Industries, as approved by you on August 19, 1933,
the Lumber Code Authority has submitted its Amendment, which is
inchided and attached.

This is a report of the Hearing on the foregoing Amendment con-
ducted January 22. 1934, in the Ball Room of the Raleigh Hotel,
"Washington. D.C., in accordance with the provisions of the National
Industrial Recovery Act.

This Amendment changes the wage rate in tlie Black Hills Forest
region of South Dakota and Wyoming to equalize the wages in this
region with the wage rates which prevail in the territory from which
the employees are drawn. The present Code wage rate for this
region is the same as in the dense fir forests of Oregon and Washing-
ton, while the timber operations are similar to those in Northern
Minnesota and Wisconsin and the laborers are drawn from the latter
two States.

Unless the wage rates in these two territories are equalized it will
be impossible for the operators in the Black Hills Forest region to
continue to give satisfactory employnient to labor because of the
excessive cost of the lumber operation.

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said amend-
ment to said Code having found as herein set forth and on the basis
of all the proceedings in this matter:

I find that :

(a) The Amendment to said Code and the Code as amended are
Avell designed to promote the policies and purposes of Title I of the
National Industrial Recovery Act including the removal of obstruc-
tions to the free flow of interstate and foreign commerce which tend
to diminish the amount thereof, and will provide for the general
welfare b}' promoting the organization of industry for the purpose of
cooi)erative action of labor and management under adequate gov-
ernmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair competi-
tive practices, by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the
present productive capacity of industries, by avoiding undue re-
striction 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 per-
tinent provisions of said Title of said Act. including without limi-
tation subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of Section 7 and
Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof.

(372)

(d) The Amendment and the Code as amended are not designed
to and wall 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

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved this Amendment to

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir: On August 19, 1933, you approved a Code of Fair Competi-
tion for the Lumber and Timber Products Industries.

This is a report on a Hearing on Amendments Xos. 34 and 37 to
that Code conducted in Washington, D.C.. beginning on January 22,
1934. in accordance with the National Industrial Recovery Act.

The Amendments contemjdate the establishment of a Wooden Pail
and Tub Subdivision to the AVooden Package Division of the Lumber
and Timber Products Code and were presented by representatives
of the industry over which the contemplated Subdivision will have
jurisdiction, said to represent 94.3 per cent of the value of such prod-
ucts manufactured and distributed in the United States and repre-
senting with approval 93 per cent of the invested capital.

In 1928 approximately one thousand and seven hundred (1,700)
employees were engaged in the Wooden Pail and Tub Industr}^ and
the sales for that year are estimated at $3,427,720.00. The estimated
demand for 1934 for the products of the industry is below the sales
for 1933 which were estimated at $1,634,926.01.

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said
Amendments to said Code having found as herein set forth and on
tlie basis of all the proceedings in this matter:

I find that :

(a) Tlie Amendments to said Code and the Code as amended are
well designed to promote tlie policies and purposes of Title I of the
National Industrial Recovery Act including the removal of obstruc-
tions 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 main-
taining united action of labor and management under adequate
governmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair com-
petitive practices, by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the
present productive capacity of industries, by avoiding undue re-
strictions of production (except as may be temi)orariiy required),
by increasing the consumption of industrial and agricultural prod-
ucts through increasing purchasing power, by reducing and relieving
unemployment, by impioving 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 limi-
tation Subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of Section 7 and
Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof.

(176)

(d) The Amendments and the Code as amended are not designed
to and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(e) The Amendments 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

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved these Amendments
to the Code.

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir: The Code Authority of the Motion Picture Industry sub-
mitted on July 3, 1934, proposed amendments for the Code of Fair
Competition for the Motion Picture Industry. Those amendments
as submitted were presented to the Legal Division of the National
Recovery Administration and received its approval.

The main body of these amendments being in accord with an
Executive Order signed Iw you and dated April 14. 1934, a public
hearing was not deemed necessary, and in lieu of the public hearing
a notice of opportunity to file objections (Administrative Order No.
124-24) was printed and distributed in the same manner as a notice
of hearing. Ten days were given in this notice of opportunity to
file objecti(ms as a time within which objections to these amendments
were to be received.

In their final form, these amendments were approved by the Legal
Division and the Research and Planning Divisio7i of the National
Recovery Administration. The reports of the remaining Boards are
not necessary since these amendments are confined to the collection
of expenses of Code Administration and a model clause regarding
the liability of members of the Code Authority.

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said amend-
ments to said Code having found as herein set forth and on the
basis of all the proceedings in this matter :

I find that :

(a) The amendments 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 obstruc-
tions 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 main-
taining united action of labor and management under adequate
governmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair com-
petitive practices, by promoting the fullest possible utilization of
the present productive capacity of industries, by avoiding undue re-
striction 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.

(180)

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

(e) The amendments 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
amendments.

For these reasons, these amendments have been approved.

Hugh S. Johnson,

stitute legal proceedings for the collection of any such equitable
contribution.

Add as Section II the following new paragraph :

lain Breakfast Furniture Assembling Industry, for amendment of
the provisions of Article VII, Part A, Section 5, of the Code. Fair

This amendment was drawn up and proposed in accordance with

intended to govern the collection of assessments for code adminis-
tration by the Porcelain Breakfast Furniture Code Authority.

This amendment does not in any way affect the labor provisions
of the Code or anything other than assessment for expenses of code

The Assistant Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on
said amendment to said Code having found as herein set forth, and
on the basis of all the proceedings in this matter:

I find 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 obstruc-
tions 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 main-
taining united action of labor and management under adequate gov-
ernmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair competi-

present productive capacity of industries, by avoiding undue re-
striction of production (except as may be temporarily required),
by increasing the consumption of industrial and agricultural prod-
ucts through increasing purchasing power, by reducing and reliev-
ing unemployment, by improving standards of labor, and bv other-
wise rehabilitating industry.

(b) The Code as amended complies in all respects with the ])erti-
nent ])rovisions of said Title of s^iid Act, inchiding without limita-
tion Subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of Section 7, and
Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof.

(184)

185

to and will not eliminate or oppress small enterprises and will not

I believe the amendment to be fair to labor, to the consumer and
to the industry, and for these reasons, therefore, I approve this
amendment.

Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Administrator.

Industry. There are also submitted herewith Amendments which
will allow the Administrator additional control over the actions of
the Code Authority for this Industry. Other Amendments deal
with fair trade practices, some of Avhich are a re-statement of those
already in the Code Avhile others are new to the Industry. It is
felt that the adoption of these additional fair trade practices by
the Industry will encourage fair competition within that Industry.

The Amendment submitted by the Industry, which has to do with
the authority of the Administrator to determine an emergency, is
of utmost importance and necessity to this Industr}^ It was clearly
shown at the public hearing on the proposed Amendments that one
unit in the Industry could meet the entire consumer demand for
the products of this Industry whereas there are seventy-seven (77)
members of the Industry engaged in the manufacture of umbrellas.

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said
Amendments to said Code having found as herein set forth and on
the basis of all the proceedings in this matter :

I find that :

(a) The Amendments 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 obstruc-
tions to the free flow of interstate and foreign commerce which tend
to diminish the amount thereof, and will provide for the general
%velfare 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 com-
petitive practices, by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the
present productive capacity of industries, by avoiding undue restric-
tion 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 Imiitation

(192)

193

sub-section (a) of Section 3, sub-section (a) of Section 7 and sub-
section (b) of Section 10 thereof.

(d) The Amendments and the Code as amended are not designed
to and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(e) The Amendments 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
Amendments.

This Industry has cooperated in a most satisfactory manner with
the Administration in the preparation of these Amendments to this
Code. From the evidence adduced during this hearing and from
recommendations and reports from the various Advisory Boards, it
is believed that these Amendments as now proposed and revised
represent an effective, practical, equitable solution for this Industry
and for these reasons have been approved.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Sir: An application has been duly made pursuant to and in full
compliance with the provisions of the National Industrial Recovery
Act for an amendment to the Code of Fair Competition for the
Motor Fire Apjoaratus Manufacturing Industry, submitted by the

The existing provision of Article VI, Section 4, of the Code for
said Industry is entirely inadequate in view of Executive Order
6678, dated April 14, 1934, and Administrative Order X-36, dated
May 26, 1934, and it is therefore evident that the proposed amend-
ment to Article VI of said Code, the provisions of which follow
closely the text of the above-mentioned Orders, wdll overcome the
existing inadequate provisions.

amendment to said Code, having found as herein set forth and on

I find that :

(a) The amendment to said Code and the Code as amended are i
well designated to promote the policies and purposes of Title I of the

to diminish the amount thereof, and will provide for the general wel-
fare by promoting the organization of industry for the purpose of
cooperative action among trade groups, b}^ inducing and maintaining
united action of labor and management under adequate governmen-

productive capacity of the industries, by avoiding undue restiictions
of production (except as may be temporarily required), by increas-
ing the consumption of industrial and agricultural products through
increasing purchasing power, by reducing and relieving unemploy-
ment, by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise rehabili-
tating industry.

(b) The Code as amended complies in all respects with the "perti-
nent provisions of said Title of said Act, including without limita-
tion Subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of Section 7, and
Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof.

to and will not eliminate or oppress small enterprises and will not
operate to discriminate against them.

(e) Those engaged in other steps of the economic process have

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved this amendment.

rehabilitating industry.

(d) 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 a'gainst them.

Sir : This is a report on amendments to the Code of Fair Competi-
tion for the Bedding Maniifacturino: Industry as approved by me on
January 23, 1934. Application was made under date of April 7,
1934 by the Code Authority for the Bedding Manufacturing Indus-
try for amendment of certain of the provisions of Articles II and
VII of the said Code. All interested parties were given opportunity
to present their views at a Public Hearing held on these proposed
fourteen amendments on May 4, 1934.

Four of these fourteen amendments have been approved by me.
They are intended to clarify the language of that section of the Code
which prohibits the use of second-hand or previously used material
in the manufacture of bedding and regulates renovate or repair
work, to clarify the Code's definition of second-hand and previously
used material, to implement existing regulations pertaining to the
tagging of bedding, and to require compliance Avith all provisions of
the Code, notwithstanding requirements of State statutes.

The Assistant Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on
said amendments to said Code having found as herein set forth and
on the basis of all the i)roceedings in this matter:

I find that :

(a) The amendments 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 obstruc-
tions to the free flow of interstate and foreign commerce wdiich tend
to diminish the amount thereof, and w^ill provide for the general wel-
fare by promoting the organization of industry for the purpose of
cooperative action of labor and management under adequate gov-
ernmental sanction and suijervision, by eliminating unfair competi-
tive practices, by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the
present productive capacity of industries, by avoiding undue restric-
tion 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 un-
employment, b}' 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 limita-
tion sub-section (a) of Section 3, sub-section (a) of Section 7 and
sub-section (b) of Section 10 thereof.

(d) The amendments and the Code as amended are not designed
to and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(218)

219

(e) The amendments 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
amendments.

Therefore, I have approved said four amendments.

The White House.

Sir: An application has been duly made pursuant to and in full
compliance with the provisions of the National Industrial Recovery
Act, for an Amendment to the Code of Fair Competition for the
Mica Industry, submitted by the Code Authority for the said

The existing provision of Article VI, Section 6 of the Code for
the said Industry, is entirely inadequate in view of Executive Order

M'ili overcome the existing inadequate provisions.

ment to said Code having found as herein set forth and on the
basis of all the proceedings in this matter :

I find 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 obstruc-
tions 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 main-
taining united action of labor and management under adequate gov-
ernmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair competi-
tive practices, by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the
present productive capacity of industries, by avoiding undue restric-
tion 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 un-
employment, by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise
rehabilitating industry.

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

operate to discriminate against them.

(e) Those engaged in other steps of the economic process have not
been deprived of the right to be heard prior to approval of said

The ^ylute Homo.

Sik: The notice of opportunity to file objections to the proposed
assessment amendment to the Code of Fair Competition for the
Schiffli, Hand Machine Embroidery and Embroidery Thread and
Scallop Cutting Industries, as submitted by the Code Authority,
was published on May 29, 1934. During the period designated for
the filing of objections, no objections were received.

The proposed amendment was submitted by the Code Authority
in accordance with your Order of April 14, 1934.

The proposed amendment was revised pursuant to instructions,
issued by the Legal Division.

In final form this amendment has been approved by the Indus-
trial Advisory Board, the Consumers' Advisory Board, the Research

Board to take notice of the proposed amendment does not constitute
an objection thereto.

of all the proceedings in this matter :

I find that :

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

welfare by promoting the organization of industry for the purpose
of cooperative action among trade groups, by inducing and main-
taining united action of labor and management under adequate gov-
ernmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair competi-
tive practices by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the pres-
ent 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 in-
creasing 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 limita-
tion subsection (a) of Section 3, subsection (a) of Section 7 and
subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof.

(d) The amendment and the Code as amended are not designed!
to and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices.

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House^

Sie: An application has been duly made pursuant to and in full
compliance with the provisions of the National Industrial Recovery
Act, for a modification of the Code of Fair Competition for the
Trailer Manufacturing Industry.

The existing provision of Article VI, Section 6 of the Code for
the said Industry, is entirely inadequate in view of Executive Order
6678 and Administrative Order X-36, and it is therefore evident
that the proposed modification of Article VI of said Code, the pro-
visions of which follow closely the text of the above mentioned
Orders, will overcome the existing inadequate provisions.

FINDINGS

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said modi-
fication of said Code having found as herein set forth and on the
basis of all the proceedings in this matter :

I find that :

(a) The modification of said Code and the Code as modified are
well designed to promote the policies and purposes of Title I of the
National Industrial Recoverj'^ Act including the removal of obstruc-
tions 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 main-
taining united action of labor and management under adequate gov-
ernmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair competi-
tive practices by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the
present productive capacity of the industries, by avoiding undue
restrictions of production (except as may be temporarily required),
by increasing the consumption of industrial and a*;ricultural prod-
ucts through increasing purchasing power, by reducing and relieving
unemployment by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise
rehabilitating industry.

(b) The Code as modified complies in all respects with the per-
tinent provisions of said Title of said Act, including without limita-
tion Subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of Section 7, and
Subsection (b) of Section 10, thereof.

(c) The Trailer Manufacturers' Association was and is a trade
association truly representative of the aforesaid Industry, and that
said association imposed and imposes no inequitable restrictions on
admission to membership therein and has applied for this modifi-
cation.

(d) The modification and the Code as modified are not designed
to and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(236)

237

(e) The modification and the Code as modified 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
modification.

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved this modification.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

A dministrator.

I find that:

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

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

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir : This is a report on the procedure followed by the National
Recovery Administration in approving an amendment to the Code-
of Fair Competition for the Blouse and Skirt Manufacturing Indus-
tries, as approved on December 30, 1933, which empowers the Code
Authority to assess members of the Industries in order to obtain
funds for purposes of Code administration. This amendment car-
ries out the terms of your Order of April 14, 1934.

This amendment was submitted by the Code Authority for the
Blouse and Skirt Manufacturing Industries on behalf of the Blouse
and Skirt Manufacturing Industries. A notice of opportunity to
be heard to the amendment, as proposed by the Code Authority,
was subsequently issued, and an adequate opportunity was given
all interested parties to voice their objection to the approval of this
amendment. No objections, however, were filed with the Deputy
Administrator.

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on this
amendment to said Code, having found as herei'' set forth and on the
, basis of all the proceedings in this matter;

I find 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 obstruc-
tion 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 i:)urpose
of cooperative action among trade groups, b}' inducing and main-
taining united action of labor and management under adequate
governmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair com-
petitive practices, by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the
present productive capacity of industries, by avoiding undue restric-
tion of production (except as may be temporarily required), by in-
creasing the consumption of agricultural and industrial products
through increasing purchasing power, by reducing and relieving
unemployment, by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise
rehabilitating industry.

(d) The amendment and the Code as amended are not designed tO'
and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices,

(258)

259

(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 the approval of said
amendment.

For these reasons this Amendment has been approved.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Administrator.

sanction and su[)ervision, by eliminating unfair competitive practices,
by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the present productive
capacity of the industries, by avoiding undue restrictions of produc-
tion (except as may be temi)orarily required), by increasing the con-
sumption of industrial and agricultural products tiirough increasing
})urchasing power, by reducing and relieving unemployment, by im-
})roving standards of labor, and by otherwise rehabilitating industr3\

(b) The CVxle as modified complies in all respects with the perti-

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir: I have the honor to submit herewith an amendment to the
Code of Fair Competition for the Cotton Textile Indiistiy. The
amendment, which is attached, was presented by the Code Authority.

Xotice of opportunity to be heard on this amendment was given
and no objections were received.

The amendment provides that that portion of sub-division 4 of
the second paragraph of Section 1, defining piece dyeing machines
as " productive machinery "* shall be stricken out and that " piece
dyeing machines where the same are used in production of unprinted
fabrics " shall be inserted, because of the fact that in cases where
a fabric after being dyed in the piece is to be printed, the piece
dyeing machine no longer remains the productive machinery.

FINDINGS

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said
amendment to said Code having found as herein set forth and on
the basis of all proceedings in this matter :

I find 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 among trade groups, by inducing
and maintaining united action of labor and management under
adequate governmental sanction and supervision, by elinunating
unfair competitive practices, by promoting the fullest possible utili-
zation of the present productive capacit}' of industries, by avoiding
undue restriction of production (except as may be temporarily re-
quired), by increasing the consumption of industrial and agricul-
tural 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 limita-
tion Subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of Section 7 and
Su})section (b) of Section 10 thereof.

(d) The amendment and the Code a.s amended are not designed
to and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(268)

(e) The amendment and the Code as amended are not designed
to and will not eliminate or oppress small enterprises and will not

Sir: This is a report on a modification of subsection (f), Section
1. of Article X of the ai)proved Code of Fair Competition for the
Retail Food and Grocery Trade, number 182. This Code was ap-
proved by you on December 30, 1933.

Pursuant to Executive Order No. G678. dated April 14. 1934, the
Code Authority for the Retail Food and Grocery Trade, in accord-
ance with subsection (d). Section 1, of Article X of said Code, hav-
ing found it necessary in order to support the administration of this
Code and to maintain standards of fair competition, established by

well designed to promote the policies and purposes of Title I of the
National Industrial Recovery Act including the removal of obstruc-
tions to the free flow of interstate and foreign commerce which tend
to diminish the amount thereof, and will provide for the general wel-
fare by promoting the organization of the industry for the purpose
of cooperative action of labor and man^agement under adequate gov-
ernmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair competi-
tive practices, by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the
present productive capacity of industries, by avoiding undue restric-
tion of production (except as may be temporarily required), by in-
creasing the consumption of industrial and agricultural products
through increasing purchasing power, by reducing and relieving un-
employment, by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise
rehabilitating industry.

(b) The Code as modified complies in all respects with the per-
tinent provision of said Title of said Act, including without limita-
tion subsection (a) of Section 3, subsection (a) of Section 7 and
subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof.

(d) The modification and the Code as modified are not designed
to and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices.

been deprived of the right to be heard prior to approval of said
modifications.

In accordance with Executive Order No. 6678, dated April 14,

Kespectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

An application having been duly made pursuant to and in full
compliance with the provisions of Title I of the National Industrial

ment to a Code of Fair Competition for the Shoe and Leather

working conditions. The Code Authority shall within five days
afford an opportunity to the member using the price to answer such
complaint and shall within fourteen days make a ruling or adjust-

KEPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White Rouse.

Sir : A Code of Fair Competition for the Shoe and Leather Finish,
Polish and Cement Manufacturing Industry was approved by you
on December 30, 1933, and became effective on January 8, 1934.

Since that time, it has been deemed advisable to bring within the
scope of the above Code a group which is closely allied to the Shoe
and Leather Finish, Polish and Cement Manufacturing Industry.
This group is the Fabric Cleaner Industry.

The Code Authority for the Shoe and Leather Finish, Polish and
Cement Manufacturing Industry and a group representing approxi-
mately seventy -five (75%) per cent of the Fabric Cleaner manu-
facturers, submitted an application to include the above mentioned
group under the approved Code. A Public Hearing on the proposed
amendments was conducted in Washington, May 22nd, 1934, in ac-
cordance w^th the provisions of the National Industrial Recovery
Act.

By amending the definition of the Industry and the definition of
the Shoe Polish Division, under which Division the Fabric Cleaner
manufacturers will be classified, the group has been included under
the provisions of the Shoe and Leather Finish, Polish and Cement
Manufacturing Industry's Code. The Code Authority has been en-
larged to fourteen (14) members in order that it may be truly repre-
sentative of the Industry. The Code has also been amended to allow
the Code Authority to assess members of the Industry in order that
the Code may be properly administered. There has also been added
a provision for the formulation of methods of cost finding and ac-
counting, which provision applies only to the Shoe and Leather
Finish and Cement Division.

THE INDUSTRY

The Fabric Cleaner Industry includes the manufacture of liquids
for cleaning wearing apparel sold under a trade name, and not sold
as a basic commodity. There are about 550 establishments listed as
manufacturers to some extent of fabric cleaners. Most of these firms
are small or operate part-time under this classification. The larger
shoe polish manufacturers generally make fabric cleaners as do some
oil companies and chemical special manufacturers.

The aggregate number of employees in 1929 is estimated at about
1,000. Annual business is estimated at about $2,500,000 in recent
years.

The restrictions of the definition, together with the general lack of
organization in the Industry make it impossible to obtain accurate
statistical data regarding it.

(287)

288

FINDINGS

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said
amendments to said Code having found as herein set forth and on
the basis of all the proceedings in this matter :

I find that:

(a) The amendments 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 obstruc-
tions to the free flow of interstate and foreign commerce which tend
to diminish the amount thereof, and will provide for the general wel-
fare by promoting the organization of Industry for the purpose of
cooperative action of labor and management under adequate govern-
mental sanction and super\nsion, 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 in-
creasing purchasing power, by reducing and relieving unemploy-
ment, by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise rehabili-
tating Industry.

(c) The Fabric Cleaner Group of Manufacturers was and is an
industrial group, which, together with the Code Authority are
truly representative of the aforesaid Industry and that said group
and said Code Authority imposed and imposes no inequitable re-
strictions on admission to membership therein and has applied for
these amendments.

(d) The amendments and the Code as amended are not designed
to and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(e) The amendments 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
amendments.

For these reasons, therefore, the amendments have been approved.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,
Administrator for Industrial Recovery.

bers of the Industry. Thereafter, each member of the Industry shall

in contained shall be construed to permit the Code Authority, any

2. (a) If the Administrator, after investigation, shall at any time
find both (1) that an emergency has arisen within the Industry
adversely affecting small enterprises or wages or labor conditions,

minimum price for a specified product for a stated period, which
price shall be reasonably calculated to mitigate the conditions of

such stated period, no member of the Industry shall sell such speci-
fied products at a net realized price below said stated minimum price

sideration or the Administrator may cause any determinations here-
under to be reviewed or reconsidered and appropriate action taken.

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The lYhite House.

Sir: This is a report on a Public Hearing on the Approved Code
of Fair Competition for the Cast Iron Soil Pipe Industry, held in
Washington, D. C, January 23, 1934, in accordance with the pro-
visions of the National Industrial Recovery Act.

The Code of Fair Competition for the Cast Iron Soil Pipe Indus-
try was approved by the President September 7, 1933, and amended
by Order of the President dated December 18, 1933.

The Code of Fair Competition for the Cast Iron Soil Pipe Indus-
try, which was among the first submitted to the Administration, did
not contain many provisions which experience has since shown are
necessary to effectuate the purposes of the Act, and accordingly after
numerous protests were received by the Administration as to the
hardship the Code was working on members of the Industry, a
Public Hearing was ordered by the Administration to provide an
opportunity for anyone to file objections or offer amendments to
this Code.

At the Public Hearing the Cast Iron Soil Pipe Industry repre-
sented by its Administrative Agency, the Cast Iron Soil Pipe Asso-
ciation, submitted a proposed amendment to revise its Code of Fair
Competition. Said amendment was duly heard at the hearing and
all protests were duly considered.

The amendment provides for the addition of certain standard
provisions in order that the Code might conform to the present
policy of the Administration; it further provides for the establish-
ment of a Code Authority which will be representative of the In-
dustry and conform to the standards of the Administration.

The Code no longer contains any provisions or appendices which
might be construed to mean the mandatory use of the Birmingham
basing point.

FINDINGS

The Assistant Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on
said auiendment to said Code having found as herein set forth and
on the basis of all the proceedings in this matter :

I find that :

(a) The amendment to said Code and the Code as amended are
well designed to j^romote the policies and purposes of Title I of the
National Industrial Recovery Act including the removal of obstruc-
tions to the free flow of interstate and foreign commerce which
tend to diminish the amount tiiereof, 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

(298)

299

governmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair com-
petitive 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 prod-
ucts 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 per-

welfare by promoting the organization of industry for the purpose of
cooperative action of labor and management under adequate govern-
mental 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 aj^ricultural products through
increasing purchasing power, by reducing and relieving unemploy-
ment, by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise rehabilitat-
ing industry.

(b) The Code as modified complies in all respects with the perti-
nent provisions of said Title of said Act, including without limi-

This modification of the Code was submitted. to the Legal Division
and at their suggestion the modification was revised and resubmitted
on June 7, 1934, in its present form for approval.

Xotice of Opportunity to be Heard prior to July 21, 1934, was

This modification of the Code provides for the submission of a
Budget and equitable Basis of Assessment and the collection of such
assessment to cover the expenses of Code administration.

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said modifi-
cation of said Code having found as herein set forth aiirl on the basis
of all the proceedings in this matter:

I find that:

(a) The modification of said Code and the Code as modified are
well designed to promote the policies and purposes of Title I of the
Xational Industrial Act, including the removal of obstructions to
the free flow of interstate and foreign commerce which tend to dimin-
ish the amount thereof, and will provide for the general welfare
by promoting the organization of Industry for the purpose of coop-
erative action among trade groups by inducing and maintaining
united action of labor and management under adequate govern-
mental 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 temporarih^ required), by increasing
the consumption of industrial and agi'icultural products through
increasing purchasing poAver, by reducing and relieving unemploy-
ment, by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise rehabili-
tating industry.

(b) The Code as modified complies in all respects with the perti-
nent provisions of said Title of said Act, including without limita-
tion sub-section (a) of Section 3, sub-section (a) of .Section 7 and
sub-section (b) of Section 10 thereof.

(c) The Upholstery Spring and Accessories Manufacturers' Asso-
ciation, Inc., was and is an industrial association, truly representative
of the aforesaid Industiy and said Association imposed and imposes
no inequitable restrictions on admission to membership therein and
has applied for this modification.

(318)

319

(d) The modification and the Code as modified are not designed to
and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(e) The modification and the Code as modified 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
modification.

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved the modification
of the Upholstery Spring and Accessories Manufacturing Industry-
Code.

Eespectfully,

1929, there Avere 136 establishments distributing tailors' trimmings
and supplies, and employing 585 persons Avith annual net sales of
$11,327,000. However, this figure does not include the further break-
down by the census of Wholesale Distribution under woolens and
worsteds. Under this heading for 1929 there were 327 establish-
ments employing 2.548 people with annual net sales of $95,459,000.
The figures submitted hj the Trade state that there are 225 con-
cerns emploving 2.500 persons vrith ago-regate annual sales of

of labor and management under adequate governmental sanction and
supervision, by eliminating unfair competitive practices, by pro-
moting the fullest possible use of the present productive capacity of

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) Said Trade normally employs not more than 50,000 employees
and it is not classified by me as a major industry.

ECONOMIC EFFECT OF THE CODE

According to the statistical analysis of the Division of Research
and Planning, the total volume of work in this Division of the Con-
struction Industry in 1929 amounted to approximately $500,000,000.
In 1932 this volume of work had dropped to about $196,000,000. Ac-
cording to the information supplied by the sponsors of this Chapter,
the aggregate volume of business in 1933 amounted to $73,179,000.
In 1929, according to the statistical analysis of the Division of Re-
search and Planning, this Division of the Construction Industry
employed 84.500 workers; in 1933, 31,900 workers.

It is reasonable to suppose that with the establishment of higher
uniform rates of pay, the limitation of the hours of work, and the
prohibition of unfair trade practices, both employers and employees
in this Industry will be materially benefited without detriment to the
consumer.

FINDINGS

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said Heat-
ing. Piping and Air Conditioning Contractors Cliapter of the Code
of Fair Competition for the Construction Industry, having found as
herein set forth and on the basis of all the proceedings in this matter ;

I lind that :

(a) Said Heating, Piping and Air Conditioning Contractors
Chapter and said Code of Fair Competition for the Construction In-
dustry, as supplemented by said Heating, Piping and Air Condition-
ing Contractors (^hapter, are well designed to promote the policies
and purposes of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery Act, in-
cluding removal of obstructions to the free flow of interstate and for-
eign commerce which tend to diminish the amount thereof and will
provide for the general welfare by promoting the organization of
industrv for the purpose of cooperative action among the trade
groups, by inducing and maintaining united action of labor and man-
agement under adequate governmental sanctions and superA'ision, by
eliminating imfair competitive practices, by promoting the fullest
possible utilization of the persent productive capacity of ndustres, by
avoiding undue restriction of production (except as may be tempo-
rarily required), by increasing the consumption of industrial and
agrcultural products through increasing purchasing power, by re-
ducing and relieving unemployment, by improving standards of labor,
and by otherwise rehabilitating industry.

(b) Said Industry normally employs not more than 50,000 em-
ployees: and is not classified by me as a major industry.

(c) Said Heating. Piping and Air Conditioning Contractors Chap-
ter and the Code of Fair Competition for the Construction Industry,
as supplemented by said Heating, Piping and Air Conditioning Con-
tractors Chapter, as approved comply in all respects with the perti-
nent provisions of said Title of said Act, including without limita-
tion Subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of Section 7, and
Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof; and that the applicant associa-
tion is an industrial association truly representative of the aforesaid
Industry; and that said Association imposes no inequitable restric-
tions on admission to membership therein.

(d) Said Heating, Piping and Air Conditioning Contractors
Chapter and the Code of Fair Competition for the Construction In-
dustry, as supplemented by said Heating, Piping and Air Condition-
ing Contractors Chapter are not designed to and will not permit
monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(e) Said Heating, Piping and Air Conditioning Contractors
Chapter and the Code of Fair Competition for the Construction In-
dustry, as supplemented by said Heating, Piping and Air Condi-
tioning Contractors Chapter, are not designed to and will not elimi-
nate 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 am)roval of said
Heating, Piping and Air Conditioning Contractors Chapter and of
said Code, as supplemented by this Heating, Piping and Air Condi-
tioning Contractors Chapter thereof.

335

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved said Heating, Piping
and Air Conditioning Contractors Chapter of the Code of Fair Com-
petition of the Construction Industry.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

A dministrator.

(345)

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White Hotise.
Sir: This is a report on the Divisional Code of Fair Competition
for tlie Trout Farming Industry, Eastern Section (a Division of the
Fishery Industr}'), as revised after Public Hearing, conducted in
"Washington, D.C., on March 16, 1934, in accordance with the pro-
visions of the National Industrial Recovery Act.

I. DESCRIPTION OF THE INDUSTRY

The industry includes the artificial propagation of several varieties
of brook trout and the selling in the Eastern Section of the United
States of trout eggs for hatching, live trout of various ages for stock-
ing of streams, and mature trout for food purposes.

The industry, on account of the requirement of large quantities
of cold water, is of necessity confined to the northern states or to
localities of such elevation that the average temperature of the
available water supplies is quite low. The industry always faces the
possibility of severe losses through the influx of warm surface waters,
the infection of the ponds by one or more of the disease producing
bacteria and fungi and through improper handling of the fish or
eggs at certain stages of their development. These losses can be
avoided to a large extent through the knowledge and skill of trained
employees and for this reason it is impracticable to increase employ-
ment greatly.

Under nonnal economical conditions the production of eggs was
the most important part of the business. Such eggs were sold to
Federal, state and private agencies for hatching. The small fish
were usually taken care of for a short time and then liberated into
the public or private streams. To a much lesser extent immature
fish and some adults were also sold and used for propagation pur-
poses in public and private waters. Only the excess stock of mature
fish were formerly used for market purposes. However, in recent
years there has been a decline in the demand for eggs and fish for
stocking purposes. This has been due to the reduction in appropria-
tions for such purposes to state and Federal governments, and to the
inability of private individuals and clubs to restock their preserves
as copiously as formerly. As a result, the number of mature fish
tended to increase and these have added to the supply which were
normally sold for food purposes. Most of the output used for food is
sold to hotels, clubs and restaurants. The demand is limited as the
price of brook trout must of necessity be high and only comparatively
few people are in a position to purchase such food luxuries.

Late statistics of this industry are not available, but in 1929 the
sales of all products of the industry in the Eastern Section amounted

(346)

347

to nearly $400,000, of which something over one-third consisted of
receipts for eggs. It is believed that this proportion is now lower.
The production of the Eastern Section probably now approximates
50% of the total of the United States.

II. LABOR PROVISIONS

The code provides for a reduction in the hours of labor and an
increase in the rates of pay. Only a comparatively small number of
additional employees will be put on the payrolls as there has been
but little unemployment among trained fish culturists. The absence
of recent statistics prevents any definite statement as to the effect
of increased wages but it is estimated that this may increase purchas-
ing power among employees by some fifteen or twenty percent.

III. UNFAIR METHODS OF COMPETITION

In addition to the usual unfair practices, the code provides for
standardization of the method of basing prices for the several
products of the industry. The provision prohibiting the industry
from selling its products on consignment will, according to repre-
sentatives of the industry, be of real value in maintaining price
levels and will thus enable the industry to live up to the labor and
wage provisions of the code.

rv. FINDINGS

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said
divisional code, having found as herein set forth and on the basis
of all the proceedings in this matter;

I find that :

(a) Said divisional code is well designed to promote the policies
and purposes of Title I of the National Industrial Kecovery Act,
including 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 the trade
groups, by inducing and maintainmg united action of labor and
management under adequate governmental sanctions and super-
vision, 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, fishery, and agricultural products through increasing
purchasing power, by reducing and relieving unemployment, by
improving standards of labor, and by otherwise rehabilitating
industry.

(b) Said industry normally employs not more than 50,000 em-
ployees; and is not classified by me as a major industry.

(c) The divisional code as approved 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; and that the applicant
association is an industrial association truly representative of the

348

aforesaid industry; and that said association imposes no inequitable
restrictions on admission to membership therein.

(d) The divisional code is not designed to and will not permit
monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(e) The divisional code is 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
divisional code.

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved this divisional code.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Administrator.

code wages and working conditions.

(0) Emergency Basis for Prices. — To sell below the stated mini-
mum price for any given product of the trout farming industry
when an emergency exists as to am' such product in accordance with
the following provisions:

(1) If the Administrator, after investigation, shall at any time
find both (a) that an emergency has arisen within the trout farming
industry adversely affecting small enterprises or wages or labor
conditions, or tending toward monopoly or other acute conditions
which tend to defeat the purposes of the Act; and (b) that the
determination of the stated minimum price for a specified product
within the trout farming industry for a limited period is necessary
to mitigate the conditions constituting such emergency and to effec-
tuate the purpose of the Act, the Executive Committee may cause
an impartial agency to investigate costs and to recommend to the
Administrator a determination of the stated minimum price of the
product affected by the emergency and thereupon the Administrator
may proceed to determine such stated minimum price; and

minimum price for a specified product for a stated period, which
price shall be reasonably calculated to mitigate the conditions of
such emergency and to effectuate the purposes of the Act, he shall
publish such price. Thereafter, during such stated period, no mem-
ber of the trout farming industr}^ shall sell such specified products
at a net realized price below said stated minimum price and any
such sale shall be deemed destructive price cutting; provided that

(3) When no declared emergency exists as to any given product,
there is to be no fixed minimum basis for prices. It is intended that
sound cost estimating methods should be used and that consideration
should be given to costs in the determination of pricing policies.

(357)

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President.

The White House.
Sir : This is a report on the Supplemental Code of Fair Competi-
tion for the Oil Field Pumping Engine ^Manufacturing Subdivision
of the Machinery and Allied Products Iiulustry, public hearing hav-
ing been conducted thereon in Washington, D.C, December 21, 1933,
in accordance with the provisions of Title I of the National Indus-
trial Recovery Act. Every person who filed a request for an appear-
ance was freely heard in public and all statutory and regulatory
requirements were complied with.

GENERAL STATEMENT

The Oil Field Pumping Engine Manufacturers Association being^
truly representative of this Subdivision of the Machinery and Allied
Products Industry, has elected to avail itself of the option of sub-
mitting a Supplemental Code of Fair Competition, as provided in
paragraph (2), Article I of the Basic Code for the Machinery and
Allied Products Industry approved by j^ou on the seventeenth day
of March, 1934.

This Subdivision represents a part of the capital goods Industry,,
manufacturing and selling internal combustion engines of slow-
speed, stationary, oil-well pumping type, using natural gas or oiL
for fuel, accessories thereto and parts thereof.

ECONOMIC EFFECT

In 1929, this Subdivision of the Industry employed approximately
1,657 persons; 1,496 are estimated to have been factory workers.

Since 1929, annual sales decreased approximately 85% in 1932 and
employment 67% as of the first quarter of 1933. Since then, factory
employment has increased to 1,046 or 113%, and man-hours 117%,

In June 1933, about 65% of the factory workers were working
more than 40 hours per week, and 28% were receiving less than 40
cents per hour with a lowest minimum wage ranging between 25 and
29.5 cents. The lowest minimum wage paid by any reporting con-
cern as of October 15, 1933, ranged between 30 and 34.9 cents.

The mininnim wage provisions for this Subdivision are based on
a flat minimum hourly rate of 32 cents per hour for the South and
the following city population differentials for all other sections of
the United States:

Over 50,0(X) population 40<;'' per hour

lO.rKJO to 50.000 populatiou 3Sc' per hour

10,000 popuhition and under SG^- per hour

(358)

359

In addition to the minimum wage rates shown above, the Supple-
mental Code provides that women engaged in substantially the same
work as men shall receive the same rate of pay as such men employ-
ees, and that the minimum wage for women employees engaged in
plant operations shall be not less than 87.5 per cent of the proper rate
for the locality in which emploj^ed as specified, and the minimum in
the South shall be not less than 32 cents per hour.

Estimated number of factory workers receiving less than designated hourly

rates

Proposed minimum hourly rates

40 cents (other U.S.)
38 cents (other U.S.)
36 cents (other U.S.)
32 cents (South)

Distribution of factory
workers receiving less
than the minimum
regardless of location

Based on the distribution as of June 15, 1933, and on the specified
percentages of the number of factory workers receiving less than the
designated rates shown in the above table, the adoption of the pro-
posed minimum rates will probably cause an increase in factory pay-
rolls. The estimated increase as of June 15, 1933, regardless of loca-
tion of the workers, will probably, under the most favorable condi-
tions, not exceed 4.0 percent assuming only upward adjustment in the
brackets below the 40-cent minimum and no change in man-hour
requirements.

Article I states the purpose of the Supplemental Code.

Article II accurately defines specific terms employed in this Sup-
plemental Code.

Article III. The labor provisions of the Basic Code for the Ma-
chinery and Allied Products Industry as approved March 17. 1934,
are incorporated by reference as the labor provisions of this Supple-
mental Code.

Article IV adopts the relevant portions of Article II " Definitions "
and Article VI "Administration ", and Article VIII, " Modifications
and Termination " of the Basic Code for the Machinery and Allied
Products Industry, as approved March 17, 1934.

Article V establishes a Code Authority consisting of seven mem-
bers, one of whom may be elected from and by the emploj^ers who
are non-members of the Applicant Association. The Administrator,
in his discretion, may appoint one additional member (without vote
and without expense to the Subdivision).

Article VI provides for an accounting system and methods of
cost finding and/or estimating.

Article VII provides for the determination of a lowest reasonable
cost, when an emergency exists in the Subdivision as a result of de-
structive price-cutting. The Administrator may approve, disapprove,
or modify the determination.

80835—34 18

360

Article VIII i^rovides for methods of setting up, revising and filing
price lists and discount sheets and terms of sale and payment.

Article IX sets forth the fair trade practices which have been
especially designed to effect fair competition in this Subdivision.

Article X defines export territory and provides that filed price lists
are not applicable to export shipments.

Article XI contains the mandatory provisions contained in Section
10 (b) of the Act, and also provides for the submission of proposed
amendments to the Supplemental Code.

Article XII provides for the withdrawal of this Subdivision from
jurisdiction of the Basic Code Authority and for the continued func-
tioning of this Subdivision as an individual industry under its own
code.

Article XIII stipulates that there shall be no inequitable restric-
tions and provides against monopolies.

Article XIV gives the effective date of this Supplemental Code.

FINDINGS

The Assistant Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on
said Supplemental Code having found as herein set forth and on the
basis of all the proceedings in this matter :

I find that:

(a) Said Supplemental Code is well designed to promote the poli-
cies and purposes of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery
Act, including removal of obstructions to the free flow of inter-
state 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
the trade groups, by inducing and maintaining the united action oi
labor and management under adequate governmental sanctions and
supervision, by eliminating unfair competitive practices, by promot-
ing the fullest possible utilization of the present productive ca-
i:)acity of industries, by avoiding undue restriction of production
(except as may be temporarily required), by increasing the con-
sumption of industrial and agricultural products through increasing
purchasing power, by reducing and relieving unemployment, by im-
proving standards of labor, and by otherwise rehabilitating industry.

(b) Said Subdivision normally employs not more than 50,000
employees, and is not classified by me as a major industry.

(c) The Supplemental Code as approved comj^lies 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; and that the
applicant gi'oup is an industrial association truly representative of
the aforesaid Subdivision of the industry; and that said association
imposes no inequitable restrictions on admission to membership
therein.

(d) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and will not
permit monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(e) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and will not elim-
inate or oppress small enterprises and will not operate to discriminate
airainst them.

361

(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
Supplemental Code.

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved this Supplemental
Code, provided that certain provisions relating to price publication
are stayed as stated in the Order.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Administrator,
July 25, 1934.

resentative of the Subdivision and in other respects comply with
the provisions of the Act, the Administrator may prescribe such
hearings as he may deem proper; and thereafter if he shall find
that the Code Authority is not truly representative or does not in
other respects comply with the provisions of the Act, may require
an appropriate modification of the Code Authority.

ticipating in the selection or activities of the Code Authority shall
(1) impose no inequitable restrictions on membership, and (2) sub-
mit to the Administrator true copies of its articles of association,

assessed, his proper pro rata share of the reasonable cost of admin-
istering this Supplemental Code as determined by Code Authority.

fair trade practices may be proposed to the Administrator as amend-
ments to this Supplemental Code and such other Codes.

Article VI — Accounting and Costing

Article VII — Selling Below Reasonable Cost

When the Code Authority determines that an emergency exists in
this Subdivision and that the cause thereof is destructive price-
cutting such as to render ineii'ective or seriously endanger the main-
tenance of the i^rovisions of this Supplemental Code, the Code
Authority may cause to be determined the lowest reasonable cost of
the products of this Subdivision, such determination to be subject
to such notice and hearing as the Administrator may require. The
Administrator may approve, disapprove, or modify the determina-
tion. Thereafter, during the period of the emergency, it shall be
an unfair trade practice for any emploj^er of the Subdivision to sell
or offer to sell any jjroducts of the Subdivision for which the lowest
reasonable cost has been determined, at such prices or upon such
terms or conditions of sale that the buyer will paj^ less therefor than
the lowest reasonable cost of such products.

When it appears that conditions have changed, the Code Author-
ity, upon its own initiative or upon the request of any interested
party, shall cause tlie determination to be reviewed.

Article VIII — Price Lists

and discounts, and terms of sale and payment for such specified
product, and Code Authority shall immediately publish and send
copies thereof to all known employers who are cooperating under
this Supplemental Code as described in Article V (d) and engaged
in the manufacture of such specified products.

Revised price lists and/or discount sheets and/or terms of sale and
payment may be filed from time to time thereafter with the Code
Authority hj any such employer, to become operative upon the date
specified therein, but such revised price lists and/or discount sheets
and or terms of sale and payment shall be filed with the Code Au-
thority ten (10) days in advance of the operative date. Copies
thereof, with notice of the operative date specified, shall be imme-
diately published and sent to all employers cooperating under this
Supplemental Code as described in Article V (d), any of whom may
file, if he so desires, revisions of his price lists and/or discount
sheets and/or terms of sale and payment, which shall become effective
upon the date when the revised price list and/or discount sheet
and/or terms of sale and payment first filed shall go into effect.^

(b) If and when Code Authority shall determine that in any group
of the Subdivision not now selling its product on the basis of price
lists, with or without discount sheets, with terms of sale and payment,
the distribution or marketing conditions in the group are the same as,
or similar to the distribution or marketing conditions in a group
where the use of price lists, with or without discount sheets
and terms of sale and payment is well recognized, and that a system
of selling on net price lists or price lists and discount sheets with
terms of sale and payment for such specified product should be put
into effect in such group, then each employer in such group shall,
within twenty (20) days after notice of such determination, file with
Code Authority net price lists or price lists and discount sheets, with
terms of sale and payment, showing his prices and discounts and
terms of sale and payment, and the Code Authority shall immediately
publish and send copies thereof to all known employers who are
cooperating under this Supplemental Code, and such price lists
and/or discount sheets and/or terms of sale and payment may be
thereafter revised in the manner hereinbefore provided. Provided
that Code Authority shall make no determination to place any prod-
uct of the Subdivision (not now on a price list basis) on a price list
basis, as provided in tliis Section unless affirmative consent to such
determination is given by a majority vote of employers who are at
that time cooperating under this Supplemental Code as described in
Article V (d). and are engaged in miiiiufacturing such product. The
eligibility requirements, method and effect of such voting shall be
the same as is provided by Article V.

(c) Code Authority for the purpose of determining the lowest
reasonable cost, shall, to the extent permitted by the Act, have power
on its own initiative or on the complaint of any employer, to investi-
gate any price or the terms of sale and payment for any product;
and, for the purpose of the investigation thereof, to require an em-
ployer to furnish sucli information concerning the cost of manufac-
turing and selling such product as Code Authority shall deem neces-
sary or proper for such purpose, and as the Act may allow. Upon

^ See paragraph 2 (3) of order approving this Code.

367

request, said information thus obtained shall be available to the
Administrator.

No employer shall sell directly or indirectly by any means whatso-
ever, any product of the Subdivision covered by provisions of this
Article VIII at a price or at discounts or on terms of sale and pay-
ment, different from those provided in his own current net price
lists, or price lists and discount sheets, and terms of sale and payment.

Article IX — Trade Practices

Each of the following acts and practices is deemed to be inimical
to the best interests of the Subdivision and of the public and each is,
therefore, hereby declared to be, and to constitute, an unfair method
of competition and is hereby prohibited, viz :

without the knowledge of such employer, principal or party. Com-
mercial bribery provisions shall not be construed to prohibit free
and general distribution of articles commonly used for advertising

bribery as hereinabove defined.

3. Any discrimination between purchasers of the same class by
the sale of any standardized article, having a published price, at
any price below the seller's published price, by means of direct or
indirect price concessions, or by means of any privilege not extended
to such purchasers generally.

4. No employer of the Subdivision shall publish advertising
(whether printed, radio, display or of any other nature), which is
misleading or inaccurate in any material particular, nor shall any
employer in any way misrepresent any goods (including but without
limitation its use, trade-mark, grade, quality, quantity, origin, size,
substance, character, nature, finish, material, content or preparation)
or credit terms, values, policies, services, or the nature or form of
the business conducted.

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White Home.
Sir : This is a report of the Hearino; on the Supplemental Code
of Fair Competition for the Button Jobbers' or Wholesalers' Trade
conducted in Room D of the Washington Hotel on May 10, 1934.
The Supplemental Code which is attached was presented by a duly
qualified and authorized representative of the Trade complying with
the statutory requirements.

THE TRADE

According to statistics furnished by members of the Button Jab-
bers' or Wholesalers' Trade, it is estimated that in the Men's Wear
Division there are approximately twenty-five (25) concerns with
aggregate annual sales of $4,500,000. and in the Women's Wear Divi-
sion there are approximately one hundred and thirty (130) concerns
with aggregate annual sales of $16,000,000. In the Men's Wear
Division approximately four hundred (400) persons are employed
compared with three hundred (300) in 1929. In the Women's Wear
Division approximately sixteen hundred and fifty (1,650) persons
are now employed compared with twelve hundred and fifty (1,250)
in 1929.

PROVISIONS OF THE CXDDE

Since this Code is supplemental to the Code of Fair Competition
for the Wholesaling or Distributing Trade, it contains no labor
provisions.

The provisions containing supplemental definitions are considered
inclusive and accurate.

The supplement to the Administrative provisions of the General
Code establishes a Divisional Code Authority which is fairly and
adequately representative of all the different elements in the Trade.

The Trade Practices proposed are not considered in any way
objectionable,

FINDINGS

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said Sup-
plemental Code having found as herein set forth and on the basis of
all the proceedings in this matter ;

I find that

(371)

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 use of the present productive capacity of industries, by
avoiding undue restriction of production (except as may be tempo-
rarily required), b}' increa.'iing the consumption of industrial and
agricultural i:)roducts through increasing purchasing power, by re-
ducing and relieving unemi)loyment. by improving standards of
labor, and by otherwise rehabilitating industry.

(b) Said Trade normally employs not more than 50,000 employees
and it is not classified by me as a major industry.

(d) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and Avill not per-
mit monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(e) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and will not elimi-
nate 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 the approval of
this Supplemental Code.

For these reasons, the Supplemental Code has been approved.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Ad?7iinistrator.

ORDER

AppRO\aNG Supplementary Code of Fair Competition for the
Sheet Metal Distributing Trade

A DIVISION OF the WHOLESALING OR DISTRIBUTING TRADE

An application having been duly made pursuant to and in full
compliance with the provisions of Title I of the National Industrial
Recovery Act, approved June 16, 1933, for approval of a Supple-
mental Code of Fair Competition for the Sheet Metal Distributing
Trade to the Code of Fair Competition for the Wholesaling or
Distributing Trade, and hearings having been duly held thereon and
the annexed report on said Supplemental Code, containing findings
with respect thereto, having been made and directed to the President :

"Section 1(a) Destructive price cutting is an unfair method of
competition and is forbidden. Any sale shall be deemed prhna fade
destructive price cutting if the net sales price shall be less than the
seller's net invoice cost plus transportation charges to seller's
warehouse.

" Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section any wholesaler
may sell any article of merchandise at a price as low as the price
set by any competitor on merchandise which is identical or essen-
tially the same, where such competitor's price does not violate this
Section or where such competitor is not subject to the provisions of
this Supplemental Code.

(381)

382

" Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section it shall not be
deemed destructive price cutting for a wholesaler to sell the follow-
ing merchandise at less than net mvoice cost plus transportation
charges, as provided above: obsolete goods, bona tide cioseout mer-
chandise, damaged merchandise, stocks being liquidated, merchandise
sold for charitable purposes or to unemployment relief agencies, and
such other merchandise as may be designated by the Divisional Code
Autliority.

"(b) If the Administrator shall at any time find (1) that an
emergency has arisen within the trade, adversely affecting small
enterprises or wages or labor conditions, or tending toward monop-
oly or other acute conditions which tend to defeat the purposes of
the Act, and (2) that the finding of a basis for determining mini-
mum prices for all or any specified products sold by the trade is
necessary for a limited period to correct the conditions constituting
such emergency and to effectuate the purposes of the Act, the Code
Authority may cause an impartial agency to investigate costs and
to recommend to the Administrator a basis for determining mini-
mum prices of said products. Thereupon the Administrator may
fix a basis for determining the minimum price of any of said prod-
ucts for a stated period. During such period no member of the trade
shall sell such products at a net realized price below the minimum
price determined in accordance with the base so fixed. From time
to time the Code Authority may recommend review or reconsidera-
tion or the Administrator may cause any det-ermination hereunder
to be reviewed or reconsidered, and appropriate action taken."

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The Presidext,

The White House.
Sir: This is a report of the Hearing on the Supplemental Code
of Fair Competition for the Sheet Metal Distributing Trade, con-
ducted in Room 2062, Department of Commerce Building, Washing-
ton, D. C, on April 6, 1934. The Supplemental Code which is
attached was presented by duly qualified and authorized representa-
tives of the Trade, complying with the statutory requirements, said
to represent about 68 per cent in number and about 68 per cent in
volume of sales of the Trade which could be included under this
Supplemental Code.

THE TRADE

The Census of Wholesale Distribution does not separately classify
this Trade, According to what appear to be carefully and intelli-
gently compiled statistics furnished by members of the Trade there
are at the present time 185 concerns engaged in this business. In
1929 there were approximately 185 concerns so engaged. Total
annual sales in the Trade in 1929 were about $38,000,000, and em-
ployees were approximately 5,000 in number. In 1933 sales had
declined to about $22,000,000, while the number of employees had
fallen to about 4,500.

prom:sioxs of the supplemental code

Since this Code is supplemental to the Code of Fair Competition
for the Wholesaling or Distributing Trade, it contains no labor pro-
visions. The provisions containing supplementary definitions are
inclusive and accurate.

The supplement to the administrative provisions of the General
Code establishes a Divisional Code Authority which is fairly and
adequately representative of all the different elements m the Trade.
The Constitution and By-laws contain no inequitable restrictions on
membership. The method provided for the election of the members
of the Divisional Code Authority adequately protects those members
of the Trade which are not members of the Association.

The Trade Practice rules contained in this Supplemental Code are
not in any respect objectionable and are designed to promote fair
competition in the Trade.

FIXDINGS

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said Sup-
plemental Code, having found as herein set forth, and on the basis
of all the proceedings in this matter;

(383)

384

I find that—

(a) Said Supplemental Code is well designed to promote the
policies and purposes of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery
Act, including removal of obstructions to the free flow of inter-
state 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 purposes of cooperative action
among trade groups, bj^ inducing and maintaining united action of
labor and management under adequate governmental sanction and
supervision, by eliminating unfair competitive practices, by promot-
ing the fullest possible use of the present productive capacity of in-
dustries, by avoiding undue restriction of production (except as may
be temporarily required), by increasing the consumption of indus-
trial and agricultural products through increasing purchasing
power, by reducing and relieving unemployment, by improving stand-
ards of labor, and by otherwise rehabilitating industry.

(b) Said Trade normally employ's not more than 50,000 employees
and is not classified b}^ me as a major industry.

(c) The Supplemental Code as approved 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; and that the
applicant association is a trade association truly representative of
the aforesaid Trade ; and that said association imposes no inequitable
restrictions to membership therein.

(d) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and will not per-
mit monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(e) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and will not elim-
inate or oppress small enterprises and Avill not operate to discrim-
inate against them.

(f) Those engaged in other steps of the economic process have not
been deprived of the right to be heard prior to the approval of this
Supplemental Code.

For these reasons the Supplemental Code has been approved.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

A dimnistrator.
July 27, 1934.

KEPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir: The proposed Supplemental Code of Fair Competition for
the Filing Supply Industry was submitted to the Administrator on
December 4. 1983 by a group of manufacturers engaged in the pro-
duction of Filing Supplies, representing approximately 85% of the
total known volume of the ^Members of the Industry engaged in the
manufacture and national distribution of the products covered by
said Code.

A hearing was conducted in Washington on December 20, 1933.
The Code was revised during the recess and is submitted in its
present form for approval. Every person who requested an appear-
ance was properly heard in accordance with statutorj^ and regu-
latory requirements.

The Code of Fair Competition for the Filing Supply Industry
is a supplement to the Code of Fair Competition for the Business
Furniture, Storage Equipment and Filing Supply Industry, ap-
proved on November 4, 1933, and its effect on labor and wages was,
therefore, included in my report to you submitted with the proposed
Code of Fair Competition for the Business Furniture, Storage
Equipment and Filing Supply Industry under date of November 2,
1933.

RESUME OF CODE

Article I, Purposes, states the purpose of the Code.

Article II, Definitions, accurately defines specific terms applicable
to the Filing Supply Industry as used in this Code.

Article III, Labor Provisions, adopts the Labor Provisions as
set forth in Articles V, VI, VII and Exhibit A of the Code of Fair
Competition of the Business Furniture, Storage Equipment and
Filing Supply Industry, as approved on November 4, 1933, making
specific reference to the inclusion of Section 7 (a) of Title I of
the National Industrial Recovery Act, and further provides for a
minimum wage rate of 400 per hour for male factory employees and
35<^ per hour for female factory employees.

Article IV, Organization, Powers and Duties of Code Committee,
establishes a Code Authority of seven members to be selected by a
fair method of election. It further provides that not more than
three additional members, without vote, may be appointed by the
Administrator for such terms as he may specify. This Article also
sets forth the powers and duties of said Code Authority.

Article V, Planning and Classification, provides that Members of
the Industry shall make available samples of all Industry Products
to a Planning and Classification Board and further provides that
new stock items shall be classified by said Board before presenta-

(392)

393

tion to the general public. This Article, however, in no way restricts
the manufacture of any Industry Product.

Article VI, Discrimination, prevents discrimination between
customers of the same class.

Article VII, Marketing and Trade Practice Rules, sets forth trade
practices for the Industry including an Open Price Association.

Article VIII, Extras and Deductions Not Covered in Price Sched-
ules, provides that Members of the Industry shall include in their
prices all costs of additions to and deductions from variations of
Industry Products not covered in their Price Schedules.

Article IX, Specials, prevents a manufacturer from pricing a
special item in competition with a stock item at an unfair price for
the purpose of evading his then currently effective Price Schedule.

Article X, Price Increases, provides that the increase in selling
prices shall be limited, in so far as possible, to actual increases in
seller's costs.

Article XI, Monopolies, provides that no provisions of the Code
shall eliminate, oppress or discriminate against small enterprises.

Article XII, Modification, makes, all the provisions of the Code
expressly subject to the right of the President to cancel or modify
any order, approval, license, rule or regulation issued under Sub-
section (b) of Section 10 of the Act.

Article XIII, Termination, provides that the Code shall expire on
June 16, 1935, or on the earliest date prior thereto on which the
President or Congress shall by joint resolution declare the emergency
recognized by Title I of the Act to be ended.

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said Supple-
mental Code having found as herein set forth and on the basis of
all the proceedings in this matter :

I find that:

(a) Said Supplemental Code is well designed to promote the
policies and purposes of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery
Act, including 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 organiza-
tion of Industry for the purpose of cooperative action among the
trade groups, by inducing and maintaining united action of labor
and management under adequate governmental sanctions and super-
vision, 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) Said Industry normally employs not more than 50,000 em-
ployees, and is not classified by me as a major Industry.

(c) The Code as approved complies in all respects with the perti-
nent provisions of said Title of said Act, including without limita-
tion subsection (a) of section 3, subsection (a) of section 7, and
subsection (b) of section 10 thereof, and that the applicant associa-
tion is an industrial association truly representative of the afore-

394

said Industry, and that said association imposes no inequitable
restrictions on admission to membership therein.

(d) The Code is not designed to and will not permit monopolies
or monopolistic practices.

(e) The Code is 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
Code.

For these reasons, therefore, this Code has been approved.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Administrator.
July 30, 1934.

fair competition between Members of the Industry, and no Member

(f ) Pricing to the Consumer and/or selling industry products by
any Member of the Industry at a price below his or its cost as deter-
mined i^ursuant to paragraph (i), Section 6 of Article IV; provided,
however, that a member may meet the price of a competitor whose
price does not violate the Code; and provided further that a member
mav make such sales as necessary to dispose of distress merchandise
and/or products not up to specification, pursuant to such rules and
regulations as issued by the Code Committee under Section 1 (a) of
this Article. Full information concerning such sales shall be re-
ported to the Code Authority and to all Members of the Industry.

lished list prices of the manufacturer thereof shall be sold or offered
for sale in competition with a stock item at net prices, discounts,
or terms more favorable to the purchaser than the most favorable
published discounts, terms, or net prices applying to the nearest
comparable listed stock item.

Article X — Price Increases

Whereas the policy of the Act to increase real purchasing power
will be made more difficult of consummation if prices of goods and
services increase as rapidly as wages, it is recognized that price
increases except such as may be required to meet individual cost
should be delayed, but when made such increases should, so far as
possible, be limited to actual additional increase in the seller's costs.

402

party, either to the National Emergency Committee or directly by
or to the Administrator. All proposed Amendments shall be re-
ferred to the Code Authority, who shall give Members of the Indus-
tr}^ an opportunity to be heard thereon; and thereafter the Code
Authority shall make such recommendations thereon as is deemed
proper, provided, however, that when approved by the Adminis-
trator, as necessary to effectuate the policies of the Act, after such
notice and hearing as he may prescribe, any proposed Amendment
shall thereupon become effective as a part of the Code.

Section 4. The National Emergency Committee may make recom-
mendations for modifications of this Code to the Administrator
which shall become effective as a part of this Code upon approval
by the Administrator after such notice and hearing as he may
prescribe.

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sie: The proposed Supplemental Code of Fair Competition for
the Fire Resistive Safe Industry was submitted to the Adminis-
trator on November 28, 1933, by the Safe iManufacturers National
Association, representing 85% of the known Members of the Industry.

A hearing was conducted in Washington on December 20, 1933.
The Code was revised during the recess and is submitted in its press-
ent form for approval. Every person who requested an appearance
was properly heard in accordance with statutor}^ and regulatory
requirements.

The Code of Fair Competition for the Fire Resistive Safe Industry
is a supplement to the Code of Fair Competition for the Business
Furniture, Storage Equipment, and Filing Supply Industry, ap-
proved on November 4, 1933, and its effect on labor and wages was,
therefore, included in my report to 3'ou submitted with the proposed
Code of Fair Competition for the Business Furniture, Storage
Equipment, and Filing Supply Industry under date of November 2,
1933. ^ _ '

The following pertinent statistics, however, representing a consoli-
dation of reports from 25 Members of the Industry, have been sub-
mitted to the Administration. Sales declined from $7,000,000 in the
year 1929 to $600,000 in the year 1933, a drop of roughly 91%. The
number of employees coincidently declined from an average of 2,000
in the year 1929 to 750 in June 1933, a drop of roughly 63%. Since
the latter date marked improvement in sales has been experienced,
totally absorbing the lag and has resulted in the return of many
employees to the factories. Improvement will further be aided by
the Fair Trade Practices contained in the Code, which prevent the
past abuses prevalent in the Industry.

RESUME or CODE

Article I, Purposes, states the purpose of the Code.

Article II, Definitions, accurately defines specific terms applicable
to the Fire Resistive Safe Industry as used in this Code.

Article III, Labor Provisions, adopts the Labor Provisions as set
forth in Articles V, VI, VII, and Exhibit A of the Code of Fair
Competition of the Business Furniture, Storage Equipment, and
Filing Supply Industry, as approved on November 4, 1933, making
specific reference to the inclusion of Section 7 (a) of Title I of the
National Industrial Recovery Act, and further provides for a mini-
mum wage rate of 400 for male and female factory employees.

Article IV, Organization, Powers, and Duties of Code Conunittee,
establishes a Code Authority of five members to be selected by a fair

(406)

407

method of election. It further provides that not more than three
additional members, without vote, may be appointed by the Admin-
istrator for such terms as he may specify. This Article also sets
forth the i)owers and duties of said Code Authority.

Article Y, Planning and Classification, provides that Members of
the Industry shall make available samples of all Industry Products
to a Planning and Classification Board and further provides that
new stock items shall be classified by said Board before presentation
to the general public. This Article, however, in no way restricts
the manufacture of any Industry Product.

Article VI, Discrimination, prevents discrimination between cus-
tomers of the same class.

Article VII, Marketing and Trade Practice Rules, sets forth trade
practices for the Industry, including an Open Price Association.

Article VIII. Extras and Deductions Not Covered in Price Sched-
ules, provides that Members of the Industry shall include in their
])rices all costs of additions to and deductions from variations of
Industry Products not covered in their Price Schedules.

Article IX, Specials, prevents a manufacturer from pricing a
special item in competition with a stock item at an unfair price for
the purpose of evading his then currently effectiA^e Price Schedule.

Article X, Monopolies, provides that no provisions of the Code
shall eliminate, oppress, or discriminate against small enterprises.

Article XI, Price Increases, provides that the increase in selling
prices shall be limited, insofar as possible, to actual increases in
seller's costs.

Article XII, Termination, provides that the Code shall expire on
June 16, 1935, or on the earliest date prior thereto on which the
President or Congress shall by joint resolution declare the emergency
recognized by Title I of the Act to be ended.

Article XIII, Modification, makes all the provisions of the Code
expressly subject to the right of the President to cancel or modify
any order, approval, license, rule, or regulation issued under Sub-
;section (b) of Section 10 of the Act.

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said Sup-
plemental Code having found as herein set forth and on the basis
of all the proceedings in this matter:

I find that :

(a) Said Supplemental Code is well designed to promote the
policies and purposes of Title I of the National Industrial Recov-
ery Act, including removal of obstructions to the free flow of inter-
state 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
the trade groups, by inducing and maintaining united action of labor
and management under adequate governmental sanctions and super-
vision, by eliminating unfair competitive practices, by promoting
the ftdlest 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.

80835—34 21

408-

(b) Said Industry normally employs not more than 50,000 em-
ployees, and is not classified by me as a major Industry.

(c) The Code as approved complies in all respects with the perti-
nent provisions of said Title of said Act, including, without limita-
tion, subsection (a) of section 3, subsection (a) of section 7, and
subsection (b) of section 10 thereof, and that the applicant associa-
tion is an industrial association truh^ representative of the aforesaid
Industry, and that said association imposes no inequitable restric-
tions on admission to membership therein.

(d) The Code is not designed to and will not permit monopolies
or monopolistic practices.

(e) The Code is 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 Code.

For these reasons, therefore, this Code has been approved.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

A dnrdnistrator.

FINDINGS

The Assistant Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on
said Supplementary Code having found as herein set forth and
on the basis of all the proceedings in this matter :

I find that:

(a) Said Supplementary Code is well designed to promote the
policies and purposes of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery
Act, including 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 organiza-
tion of industry for the purposes of cooperative action among the
trade groups, by inducing and maintaining united action of labor
and management under adequate governmental sanctions and super-
vision, by eliminating unfair competitive practices, by promoting the
fullest possible utilization of the present productive capacity of in-
dustries, 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) Said Industry normally ehiplo3^s not more than 50,000 em-
ployees: and is not classified by me as a major industry.

(c) The Supplementary Code as approved complies in all respects
Avith 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; and that the
applicant association is an industrial association truly representative
of the aforesaid Industry; and that said association imposes no in-
equitable restrictions on admission to membership therein.

(d) The Supplementary Code is not designed to and will not per-
mit monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(e) The Supplementary Code is not designed to and will not
eliminate or oppress small enterprises and will not operate to dis-
criminate 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
Supplementary Code.

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved this Supplementary
Code.

Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Adimnistrator.

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir: This is a report on the Supplemental Code of Fair Com-
petition for the Refrigerating Machinery Subdivision of Machinery
and Allied Products Industry, a Public Hearing on which was
lield in Washington, D.C., on December 21, 1933. The Hearing
was conducted in full accordance with the provisions of Title I
of the National Recovery Act.

GENERAL STATEMENT

The Refrigerating Machinery Subdivision being representative
of the manufacturers of the products defined in Article II of the
Supplemental Code, has elected to formulate and submit a Sup-
plemental Code of Fair Competition as provided in the second
paragraph of Article I of the Code of Fair Competition for the
Machinerv and Allied Products Industry approved on the seven-
teenth day of March 1934.

The Refrigerating Machinery Subdivision means the engineering,
design, and production of commercial and industrial ice making and
refrigerating machinery and equipment incidental thereto. It is
expressly stated for the pui-poses of this Code that it is to apply
to the engineering, design, manufacture, and sale, as well as erec-
tion and/or installation of such machinery and equipment incidental
thereto. Any work or process incidental to and carried on by an
employer at his plant or elsewhere as a part of the manufacture
of any product of the Subdivision shall be governed by the pro-
visions of this Code rather than of any other Code.

ECONOMIC EFFECT

This Subdivision has been severely affected by the recent depres-
sion. This is evidenced by the steady decline in annual sales after
1929 from $37,769,000 in 1929 to $20,580,000 in 1932 or 45.2 per cent.

In 1929 this Subdivision employed approximately 6,759 factory
workers, which total declined to about 4,339 workers as of November
15, 1933 or 35.8 per cent. Approximately 56 per cent of the workers
were working more than 40 hours per week as of June 15, 193'3 as
compared to an average work week of 50.6 hours in 1929.

Estimated man hours declined from an average of 342,000 per week
in 1929 to 133,210 as of November 15. 1933 or 61 per cent. Until
there is a further increase in man hour requirements, the adoption
of the 40 hour week will probably cause no increase in employment
in this Subdivision.

(437)

438

, Estimated weekly earnings declinetl from an average of $27.02 in
1929 to a minimum of $13.38 in the last half of 1932, or 50.5 per cent.

Based on the distribution as of June 15, 1933 and the specified
percentages of number of wage earners receiving less than rates
previously prevalent in this Subdivision, the adoption of the pro-
posed minimum hourly rates will cause an increase in factory pay-
rolls in this Subdivision.

The wage provisions for the Subdivision, which is operating
under the Code of the Machinery and Allied Products Industry,
provide that employees engaged in plant operations shall be paid as
follows: (1) in cities of more than 50,000 population and their
immediate vicinity, 40 cents per hour; (2) in cities of more than
10.000 but not more than 50,000 population and their immediate
vicinity, which cities are not in the immediate vicinity of a city of
more than 50,000 population, 38 cents per hour ; (S) in cities of 10,000
population or less and their immediate vicinity, which cities are not
in the immediate vicinity of a city of more than 10,000 population,
3C cents per hour, except that employees engaged in plant operations
in all localities in the states of Virginia, North Carolina, South
Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkan-
sas, Louisiana, Texas, and Oklahoma, shall be paid not less than 32
cents per hour.

When females do substantially the same work as males or replace
males, they shall receive the same pay. However, no female employee
shall be paid less than 871/2 % of the proper rate for the locality in
which employed.

Employees other than those engaged in plant operations shall re-
ceive not less than $15.00 per week.

Office boys and girls and apprentices shall be paid not less than
80% of the minimum wage.

This Supplemental Code provides that no person under sixteen
years of age shall be employed in this Subdivision.

FINDINGS

The Assistant Deputy Administrator in his final report to me
on said Supplemental Code having found as herein set forth and
on the basis of all the proceedings in this matter :

I find that :

(a) Said Supplemental Code is well designed to promote the
policies and purposes of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery
Act, including 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 organiza-
tion of industry for the purpose of cooperative action among the
trade groups, by inducing and maintaining united action of labor
and management under adequate governmental sanctions and super-
vision, 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) Said Subdivision normally employs not more than 50,000
employees; and is not classified by me as a major industr3^

(c) The Supplemental Code as approved 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; and that the ap-
plicant association is an industrial association truly representative of
the aforesaid Subdivision; and that said Association imposes no in-
equitable restrictions on admission to membership therein.

(d) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and will not per-
mit monopolies or monopolistic practices.

80835—84 23

440

(e) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and will not elim-
inate or oppress small enterprises and will not operate to discrim-
inate against them.

(f) Tho^ engaged in other steps of the economic process have not
been deprived of the right to be heard prior to approval of the said
Supi^lemental Code.

P\)r these reasons, therefore, I have approved this Supplemental
Code, provided that certain provisions relating to accounting and
costing, selling below reasonable cost, price lists, and unfair trade
practices are stayed as stated in the Order.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Administrator,

ditions, but onW if such employer, not less than two weeks before
such proposed disposal, has filed with Code Authority a statement
in writing setting forth the facts of, and reasons for, such proposed
disposal and the price terms and conditions of sale, and Code Au-
thority has not, (with the approval of the Administrator), before
the termination of such two week period, in writing, disapproved
the proposed disposal. Notice of such disposal, if not disapproved,
shall be sent immediately to all employers manufacturing products
of equivalent design, character, quality or specifications, who may
sell such products at prices and on terms and conditions as favor-
able as those stipulated in the proposed disposal, when meeting the
competition of such proposed disposal.

Section 3. The foregoing Section (1) shall not apply to a sale

side the United States. For such disposal, any employer may sell,
at prices and on terms and conditions as favorable as those of the
competing foreign product, but only if he has first reported to the
Code Authority his intention so to sell, and the facts as to the
competition which justifies such action.

Article VIII ^ — Price Lists

(a) If and when the Code Authority of this Subdivision deter-
mines that in any branch or group of the Subdivision it has been
the generally recognized practice to sell a specified product on the
basis of net price lists, or price lists with discount sheets, and terms
of sale and payment, each employer shall, within ten (10) days
after notice of such determination, file with the Code Authority a
net price list, or a price list and discount sheet, as the case may be,
individually prepared by him, showing his current prices, or prices
and discounts, and terms of sale and payment, for such specified
product, and the Code Authority shall immediately publish and
send copies thereof to all known employers who are cooperating in
this Supplemental Code as described in Section (b3) of Article V
hereof.

Revised price lists and/or discount sheets and/or terms of sale
and payment for such product may be filed from time to time there-
after with the Code Authority by any employer, but such revised
price lists and/or discount sheets and/or terms of sale and payment
shall be filed with the Code Authority ten (10) days in advance of
the eft'ective date. Copies of such revised price lists and/or discount
sheets and/or terms of sale and payment, for such product, with
notice of the effective date specified, shall be immediately published
and sent to all known employers who are cooperating in this Sup-
plemental Code as described in Section (b3) of Article V hereof, any
of whom may file, if he so desires, to become effective upon the date
when the revised price list and/or discount sheet and/or terms of
sale and payment first filed shall go into effect, revisions of his price

lists and/or discount sheets and/or terms of sale and payment estab-
lishing prices or prices and discounts not lower or terms of sale and
payment not more favorable than those established in the revised
price lists and/or discount sheets and/or terms of sale aixl payment
first filed. Nothing in the foregoing shall constitute a limitation
upon the right of any employer to file revised lists fixing his own
prices, discounts and/or terms of sale and payment, which prices
and discounts maj^ be either more or less favorable than those con-
tained in any other price list, to be effective as provided in the first
sentence of tliis paragraph.'^

(b) If and when the Code Authority shall determine that in any
branch or group of the Subdivision not now selling its product on
the basis of price lists, with or without discount sheets, with terms
of sale and payment, the distribution or marketing conditions in said
branch or group are the same as, or similar to, the distribution or
marketing conditions in a brancli or group of the Subdivision where
the use of price lists, with or without discount sheets, and/or terms of
sale and payment, is well recognized, and that a sj^stem of selling on
net price lists or price lists and discount sheets with terms of sale and
paj'ment for such product should be put into effect in such branch
or group, then each employer of such branch or group shall within
ten (10) days after notice of such determination, file with the Code
Authority net price lists or price lists and discount sheets, containing
terms of sale and payment, showing his current prices and discounts
and terms of sale and payment, and such price lists and/or discount
sheets and/or terms of sale and paj^ment may be thereafter revised in
the manner hereinabove provided ; and such methods of pricing and
revisions thereof shall be " published and sent " as described in Ar-
ticle VIII (a) ; provided, however, that the Code Authority shall
make no determination to place any product of the Subdivision (not
now on a price list basis) on a price list basis, as provided in this
paragraph (b) of Article VIII, unless the employers who are at
that time engaged in manufacturing such product and are at that
time cooperating, have given their affirmative consent to such deter-
mination. The eligibility requirements, method and effect of such
voting shall be the same as provided in section (e) of Article V.

Each employer shall prepare and shall furnisli the Code Authority
for distribution with such number of copies of his price lists and/or
discount sheets and/or terms of sale and payment as Code Author-
ity may prescribe.

(c) No emploj'er shall sell directly or indirectly by any means
whatsoever, any product of the Subdivision covered by provisions
of this Article VIII at a price or at discounts, or on terms of sale

SUPPLEMENTARY CODE OF FAIR COMPETITION

FOR THE

WHOLESALE HARDWARE TRADE

As Approved on July 30, 1934

ORDER

Supplementary Code of Fair Competition for the Wholesale

Hardware Trade

A division of the wholesaling or distributing trade

An application having been duly made pursuant to and in full
compliance with the provisions of Title I of the National Industrial
Recovery Act, approved June 16, 1933, for approval of a Supple-
mental Code of Fair Competition for the Wliolesale Hardware Trade
to the Code of Fair Competition for the Wholesaling or Distributing
Trade, and hearings having been duly held thereon and the annexed
report on said Supplemental Code, containing findings with respect
thereto, having been made and directed to the President:

"Sec. 6 (a). Destructive price cutting is an unfair method of
competition and is forbidden. Any sale shall be deemed prima facie
destructive price cutting if the net sales price shall be less than the
seller's net invoice cost plus transportation charges to seller's
warehouse.

" Notwithstanding the j)rovisions of this Section any wholesaler
may sell any article of merchandise at a price as low as the price
set by any competitor on merchandise which is identical or essen-
tially the same, where such competitor's price does not violate this

(451)

452

Section or where sueli competitor is not subject to the provisions of
this Supi)leint'nt;il Code.

•• Xotwitlistanding the provisions of this Section it shall not be
deemed destructive price cutting for a wholesaler to sell the follow-
ing merchandise at less than net invoice cost plus transportation
charges, as provided above: obsolete goods, bona fide closeout mer-
chandise, damaged merchandise, stocks being liquidated, merchan-
dise sold for cliaritable purposes or to unemployment relief agencies,
and such other merchandise as may be designated by the Divisional
Code Authority.

"(b) If tlie Administrator shall at any time find (1) that an
emei'gency has arisen within the traile, adversely affecting small
enterprises or wages or labor conditioiis, or tending toward monopoly
or other acute conditions which tend to defeat the purposes of the
Act, and (2) that the finding of a basis for determining mininuim
prices for all or f\ny specified products sold bj^ the trade is neces-
sary for a limited jioi-iod to correct the conditions constituting such
emergency and to effectuate the pur])oses of the Act, the Code
Authority may cause an impartial agency to investigate costs and
to recommend to the Administrator a basis for determining minimum
prices of said })roducts. Thereupon the Administrator may fix a
basis for determining the minimum price of any of said products
for a stated })eriod. During such period no member of the trade
shall sell sucli products at a net realized price below the minimum
price determined in accordance with the base so fixed. From time
to time the Code Authority may recommend review or reconsidera-
tion or the Administrator may cause any determination hereunder
to be reviewed or reconsidered, and appropriate action taken."

KEPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House
Sir: This is a report of the Hearing on the Supplemental Code
of Fair Competition for the Wholesale Hardware Trade, a division
of the Wholesaling or Distributing Trade, conducted in the Oak
Room of the Raleigh Hotel on Thursday, April 19, 1934. The Sup-
j)lemental Code, which is attached, was presented by duly qualified
and authorized representatives of the Trade.

THE TRADE

Due to the overlapping of this Trade with other trades, com-
pletely accurate statistics are not available. According to data
submitted by the Trade, in 1933 there were approximately 1,249
concerns with aggregate annual sales of $866,158,332. The Trade
employed about 41.497 persons in 1930.

PROVISIONS OF THE CODE

This Code contains no Supplemental Labor Provisions, the em-
ployees being subject to the wage and hour provisions of the Code
of Fair Competition for the Wholesaling or Distributing Trade.
The Labor Advisory Board in its report protests against the non-
inclusion of Supplemental Labor Provisions.

In his final report to me the Deputy Administrator points out
that the overlapping and intermeshing of competition exists in this
Trade to a most unusual degree and for that reason it is essential
that this Trade operate under the Code of Fair Competition for the
Wholesaling or Distributing Trade.

The provisions containing supplemental definitions are considered
inclusive and accurate.

The administrative provisions establish a Divisional Code Author-
it}^ which fairly represents all the different elements in the Trade.

The trade practices proposed are not considered to be objectionable.

FINDINGS

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said Sup-
plemental Code having found as herein set forth and on the basis of
all the ])roceedings in this matter:

I find that:

(453)

454

and will provide for the general welfare bj' promoting the organi-
zation of industry for the purpose of cooperative action among trade
groups, b}^ inducing and maintaining united action of labor and
management under adequate governmental sanctions and supervision,
by eliminating unfair competitive practices, by promoting the fullest
possible use of the present productive capacity of industries, by "avoid-
ing undue restriction of production (except as may be temporarily
recjuired), by increasing the consumption of industrial and agricul-
tural products through increasing purchasing power, by reducing
and relieving unemployment, by improving standards of labor, and
by otherwise rehabilitating industry.

(b) Said Trade normally employs not more than 50,000 employees
and it is not classified by me as a major industry.

(c) The Supplemental Code as approved 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 T, and Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof; and that the
applicant association is a trade association truly representative of
the aforesaid Trade; and that said association imposes no inequitable
restrictions on admission to membership therein.

(d) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and will not permit
monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(e) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and will not elimi-
nate 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 the approval of this
Supplemental Code.

For these reasons, the Supplemental Code has been approved.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Administrator.
July 30, 1934.

nXDINGS

Tho Assistant Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on
said Supplementary Code having found as herein set forth and on
the basis of all the proceedings in this matter :

I find that:

(a) Said Supplementary Code is well designed to promote the
policies and purjjoses of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery
Act, including removal of obstructions to the free flow of interstate
iind foreign commerce which tend to diminish the amount thereof
and will provide for the general welfare by promoting the organiza-
tion of industry for the purpose of cooperative action among the
trade groups, by inducing and maintaining united action of labor
and management under adequate governmental sanctions and super-
vision, by eliminating unfair competitive practices, by promoting the
fullest possible utilization of the present productive capacity of in-
dustries, by avoiding undue restriction of production (except as may
be temporarily required), by increasing the consumption of indus-
trial and agricultural products through increasing purchasing power,
by reducing and relieving unemployment, by improving standards
of labor, and by otherwise rehabilitating industry.

(b) Said Industry normally employs not more than 50,000 em-
l^loyees ; and is not classified by me as a major industry.

(c) The Supplementary Code as approved 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; and that the
association is an industrial association truly representative of the
aforesaid Industry ; and that said association imposes no inequitable
restrictions on admission to membership therein.

(d) The Supplementary Code is not designed to and will not per-
mit monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(e) The Supplementary Code is not designed to and will not elim-
inate or oppress small enterprises and will not operate to discrimi-
nate 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
Supplementary Code.

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved this Supplementary
Code.

Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson.

Administrator.

Article VII — Costs and Price Cutting

SEcmoN 1. The standards of fair competition for the Industry
with reference to pricing practices are declared to be as follows :

(a) Wilfully destructive price cutting is an unfair method of com-
petition and is forbidden. Any member of the Industry or of any
other Industry or the customers of either may at any time complain
to the Supplementary Code Authority that any filed price consti-
tutes unfair competition as destructive price cutting, imperiling
small enterprises or tending toward monopoly or the impairment
of code wages and working conditions. The Supplementary Code
Authority shall within five (5) days afford an opportunity to the
member filing the price to answer such complaint and shall within
fourteen (14) days make a ruling or adjustment thereon. If such
ruling is not concurred in by either party to the complaint, all papers
shall be referred to the Research and Planning Division of NRA
which shall render a report and recommendation thereon to the
Administrator.

(b) When no declared emergency exists as to any given products,
there is to be no fixed minimum basis for prices. It is intended that
sound cost estimating methods should be used and that consideration
should be given to costs in the determination of pricing ])olicies.

(c) When an emergency exists as to any given products, sale below
the stated minimum price of such product, in violation of Section 2
hereof, is forbidden.

Section 2. Emergency Provisions. — (a) If the Administrator,
after investigation shall at any time find both (1) that an emergency
has arisen within the Industry adversely affecting small enterprises
or wages or labor conditions, or tending toward monopoly or other
acute conditions which tend to defeat the purposes of the Act; and
(2) that the determination of the stated minimum price for a speci-
fied product within the Industry for a limited period is necessary ta

473

mitigate the conditions constituting such emergency and to effectuate
the purposes of the Act, the Supplementary Code Authority may
caiLse an impartial agency to investigate costs and to recommend to
the Atbninistrator a determination of the stated minimum price of
the product affected by the emergency and thereupon the Adminis-
trator may proceed to determine such stated minimum price.

(b) When the Administrator shall have determined such stated
minimum price for a specified product for a stated period, which
price shall be reasonably calculated to mitigate the conditions of
such emergency and to effectuate the purposes of the National Indus-
trial Eecovery Act, he shall publish such price. Thereafter, during
such stated period, no member of the Industry shall sell such specified
products at a net realized price below said stated minimum price
and any such sale shall be deemed destructive price cutting. From
time to time, the Supplementary Code Authority may recommend
review or reconsideration or the Administrator may cause any deter-
minations hereunder to be reviewed or reconsidered and appropriate
action taken.

accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Associa-
tion at the option of the parties to the controversy or either of them,
or by direction of the committee. After all possible effort has
been exerted to amicably settle such differences, the committee shall
submit to the Administration in writing a statement setting forth
the facts pertaining thereto, with recommendations as to the desired
action to settle such differences.

Section 3. Nothing contained in this Article IX shall be con-
strued to limit the protection afforded to designers or manufacturers
in respect of designs under existing law.

Article X — Monopolies

No provision of this Supplementary Code shall be so applied as
to permit monopolies or monopolistic practices, or to eliminate,
oppress or discriminate against small enterprises.

Article XI — Modifications

Section 1. As provided by Section 10 (b) of the Act. the Presi-
dent may from time to time cancel or modify any order, approval,
license, rule, or regulation issued under Title I of the Act.

Section 2. This Supplementary Code, except as to provisions re-
quired by the Act, may be modified or amended on the basis of
experience or changes in circumstances, such modifications or amend-
ments to be based upon application by the Supplementary Code
Authority or other representative group within the Industry to the
Administrator and such Notice and Hearing as he shall specify and
to become effective and be a part of this Supplementary Code on
approval by the Administrator.

Article XII — Price Increases

Whereas the policy of the Act to increase real jiui'chasing power
will be made more difficult of consummation if prices of goods and
services increase as rapidly as wages, it is recognized that price
increases except such as may be required to meet individual costs
should be delayed, and when made, such increases should, so far as
possible, be limited to actual additional increases in the seller's costs.

Article XIII — Effecti\-e Date and Duration

This Supplementary Code shall become elffective at 12:01 o'clock
A.M., Eastern Standard Time, on the tenth day after it is approved
by the President and shall continue in effect until June 16, 1935, or
the earliest date prior thereto on which the President shall, by
proclamation, or the Congress shall, by joint resolution, declare
that the emergency recognized by Section I of Title I of the Na-
tional Industrial Recovery Act, has ended.

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.
Sir: This is a report on the Supplenieiital Code of Fair Competi-
tion for tlie Concrete Mixer Subdivision of Machinei'v and Allied
Products Industry, a public hearing on which was held in Washing-
ton, D.C.. on December 21, 1938. The hearing was conducted in
full accordance with the provisions of Title I of the National Indus-
trial Recovery Act.

GENERAL STATEMENT

The Concrete Mixer Subdivision, being truly representative of the
manufacturers of the products defined in Article II of the Supple-
mental Code, has elected to formulate and submit a Sup})lemental
Code of Fair Competition as provided in the second paragraph of
Article I of the Code of Fair Competition for the Machinery and
Allied Products Industry, approved bv you on the seventeenth dav of
March, 1934.

This Subdivision includes the manufacture for sale of concrete
mixers of the building mixer, paving mixer, truck mixer and agitator
type, and parts thereof.

ECONOMIC EFFECT

The Annual sales of this Subdivision for the years 1928 to 1933
were as follows: 1928, $11,968,000; 1929, $11,686,000; 1930, $8,583,000;
1931, $6,043,000; 1932, $2,345,000.

Annual sales in this Subdivision declined steadily from $11,686,-
000 in 1929 to a minimum of $2,345,000 in 1932, or 80 per cent. Esti-
mated sales for the first seven months in 1933 were placed at $741,000,
and on this basis are not likely to equal the 1932 level.

As of June 15, 1929, the Subdivision emj^loyed 1,697 persons in-
cluding office employees; as of October 15, 1933; total employment
had declined to 337 persons, or 80 per cent below the previous period.

Factory employment, as of June 15, 1929, declined from 1,404 to
266 workers as of June 15. 1933, or 81 per cent. Thereafter employ-
ment increased again to approximately 273 workers, or 3 per cent
as of October 15, 1933, the latest date for which figures are available.

Since 1929, man-hours decreased from 67,673 to 6,727, or 90 per
cent. The latest available figure on factory employment for the
fourth quarter in 1933, is 273 workers and assuming that the Depart-
ment of Labor figures are representative of the hours worked in this
Subdivision, total estimated man-hours have increased 36 per cent
since October 15, 1933. Based on man-hour requirements as of the
latest date reported, the 40-hour week provision in tlie Code will
cause little fuitlier employment in this Subdivision in 1934 until
production increases. If it is assumed that 20,000 man-hours are
representative of the volume of increased production activity and a
reasonable measure of man-hour requirements in a more normal
period, the adoption of the 40-hour week would require a force of

(478)

479

approximately 500 factory emplovees, or 35.6 per cent of the June
15, 1929 level.

The probability that all employees in this Subdivision will be
workinw to the limit of the maximum 40-hour provision is remote ;
consequently, the average work week is likely to be shorter, say 36
assumed effective hours, and employment correspondingly greater;
viz., 556 workers will be required to produce the 20,000 man-hour
volume.

The minimum wage provisions for the Subdivisions which are
operating under the Code of the Machinery and Allied Products
Industry, are based on a flat minimum hourly rate of 32 cents per
hour for the South and the following city population differentials
for all other sections of the United States : Over 50,000 population,
40 cents per hour; 10,000 to 50,000 population, 38 cents per hour;
10,000 i)opulation and under, 36 cents per hour.

In addition to the minimum wage rates shown above, the Code
provides that women engaged in substantially the same work as men,
shall receive the same rate of pay as such men employees; that the
minimum wage for women employees engaged in plant operation
shall be not less than 87.5 j^er cent of the proper rate for the locality
in Avhich employed as specified; and that the minimum in the South
shall be not less than 32 cents per hour.

Based on the distribution as of June 15, 1933 and on the specified
percentages of the number of factory workers receiving less than
the designated rates shown in the above table, the adoption of the
proposed minimum rates will probably cause an increase in factory
payrolls. The estimated increase as of June 15, 1933, regardless of
location of the workers, will probably, under the most favorable
conditions, not exceed about 2 per cent assuming only upward
adjustment in the brackets below the 40-cent minimum and no
change in man-hour requirements.

FINDINGS

The Assistant Deputy Administrator in his final report to me
on said Supplemental Code having found as herein set forth and
on the basis of all the proceedings in this matter :
I find that:

(a) Said Supplemental Code is well designed to promote the
policies and purposes of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery
Act, including 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 organi-
zation of industry for the purpose of cooperative action among the
trade groups, by inducing and maintaining united action of labor
and management under adequate governmental sanctions and super-
vision, 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) Said Sulxlivision normally employs not more than 50.000
employees; and is not classified by me as a major industry.

(c) The Supplemental Code as approved 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

481

Section 7, and Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof; and that the
applicant association is an industrial association truly representative
of the aforesaid Subdivision; and that said association imposes no
inequitable restrictions on admission to membership therein.

(d) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and will not permit
monopolies or monopolistic practices,

(e) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and will not elimi-
nate 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
Supplemental Code.

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved this Supplemental
Code, provided that certain provisions relating to price publication
are stayed as stated in the Order.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Adm,inistrator.

from companies manufacturing truck or agitator mixers.

Two members shall be elected from the membership at large by
a 51% vote weighed on the basis of one vote for the first $250,000.00
sales of products of the Industry and a second vote for sales in
excess of this amount, made in the two preceding calendar years
as reported to the Secretary of the Applicant, but each employer
shall have at least one vote.

Members of the Code Authority shall hold office for one year
or until their successors are elected and qualified.

Any employer in the Subdivision shall be eligible for membersliip
in Applicant.

(b) Aggregations of employers having a connnon interest and
common problems may be grouped by Code Authority for adminis-
trative purposes into various groups, or product classifications.

In each group or product classification there may be a Group
Code Authority approved, or appointed, by Code Authority. If
formal complaint is made to Code Authority that provisions of
this Supplemental Code have been violated by any emj)loyer. the
Code Authority or proper Group Code Authority may cause such
investigation to be made, to the extent permitted by the xVct, as
may be deemed necessary, and if the investigation has been made
by Group Code Authority it shall report the results of such investi-
gation to Code Authority for appropriate action.

The Code Authority shall, to the extent permitted by the Act,
have the right to investigate and analyze any transaction coming
under the scope of this Supplemental Code, on which any unfair
competition is alleged, to show evidence of guilt or innocence of
the employer so charged.

2. It being found necessary in order to support the Aihuinisti-ation
of this Supplemental Code and to maintain the standai'ds of Fair
Competition established hereunder and to efi'ectuate the policy of the
Act, the Code Authority is authorized :

(a) To incur such reasonable obligations as are necessary and
proper for the foregoing purposes, and to meet such obligations out
of funds which may be raised as hereinafter provided and wliich
shall be held in trust for the purposes of the Supplemental Code ;

485

to support such budget shall be contributed by employers of the
Subdivision ;

(c) After such budget and basis of contribution have been ap-
proved by the Administrator, to determine and obtain equitable con-
tribution as above set forth b}^ all employers of the Subdivision, and
to that end, if necessary, to institute legal proceedings therefor in
its own name.

3. Each employer of the Subdivision shall pay his or its equitable
contribution to the expenses of the maintenance of the Code Au-
thority, determined as hereinabove provided, and subject to rules
and regidations pertaining thereto issued by the Administrator.
Only employers of the Subdivision complying with the Supple-
mental Code and contributing to the expenses of its administration
as hereinabove provided, unless duly excepted from making such
contributions, shall be entitled to participate in the selection of mem-
bers of the Code Authority or to receive the benefits of any of its
voluntary activities or to make use of any emblem or insignia of the
National Recovery Administration.

4. The Code Authority shall neither incur nor pay any obligation
in excess of the amount thereof as estimated in its approved budget,
except upon approval of the i^^dministrator ; and no subsequent
budget shall contain an}^ deficiency item for expenditures in excess
of prior budget estimates except those which the A(hninistrator shall
have so approved.

5. In order that the Code Authority shall at all times be truly
representative of the Subdivision and in other respects comply with
the provisions of the Act, the Administrator may provide such hear-
ings as he may deem proper: and thereafter if he shall find that the
Code Authority is not truly representative or does not in other
respects comply with the provisions of the Act, may require an
appropriate modification in the method of selection of the Code
Authority, or any Group Code Authority.

Article VI — Accountixg and Costing

Code Authority shall cause to be formulated an accounting system
and methods of cost finding and/or estimating capable of use by all
employers of the Subdivision. After such system and methods have
been formulated, full details concerning them shall be made available
to all employers. Thereafter all employers shall determine and/or
estimate costs in accordance with the principles of such methods.

Article VII — Selling Below Reasonable Cost

Section 1. When the Code Authority determines that an emer-
gency exists in this Subdivision and that the cause thereof is destruc-
tive price-cutting such as to render ineffective or seriously endanger
the maintenance of the provisions of this Su]:)plemental Code, the
Code Authority may cause to be determined the lowest reasonable
cost of the products of this Subdivision, such detennination to be
subject to such notice and hearing as the Administrator may require.
The Administrator may approve, disapprove, or modify t:he deter-
mination. Thereafter, during the period of the emergency, it shall

486

be an unfair trade practice for any employer of the Subdivision to
sell or offer to sell any products of the Subdivision for which the
lowest reasonable cost has been determined at such prices or upon
such terms or conditions of sale that the buyer will pay less therefor
than the lowest reasonable cost of such ]jro(lucts.

When it appears that conditions have changed, the Code Authority,
upon its own initiative or upon the recjuest of au}^ interested part}^,
shall cause the determination to be reviewed.

Section 2. The foregoing Section (1) shall not apply to (a)
dropped lines, or (b) seconds, or (c) inventories which must be con-
verted into cash to meet emergency needs, all of which may be dis-
posed of by any employer at any })rice and on any terms or condi-
tions, but only if such emjiloyer. not less than two weeks before such
proposed disposal, has iiled Avith Code Authority, a statement in
writing setting forth the facts of. and reasons for, such proposed
disposal and the price and terms and conditions of sale, and Code
Authority has not, (with the approval of the Administrator), before
the termination of such two week period, in writing, disapproved
the proposed disposal. Notice of such disposal, if not disapproved,
shall be sent immediately to all employers manufacturing products
of equivalent design, character, quality or specifications, who may
sell such products at prices and on terms and conditions as favorable
as those stipulated in the |)ro[)Osed disposal, when meeting the com-
petition of such proposed disposal.

Section 3. The foregoing Section (1) shall not apply to a sale
made in order to meet competition on products manufactured out-
side the United States. For such disposal, any employer may sell,
at prices and on terms and conditions as favorable as those of the
competing foreign product, but only if he has first I'eported to the
Code Authority his intention so to sell, and the facts as to the com-
petition which justifies such action.

Article VIII — Price Lists

(a) If and when the Code Authority determines that in any group
of the Subdivision it has been the generally recognized practice
to sell a specified product on the basis of net jjrice lists, or price lists
with discount sheets, and fixed terms of sale and payment, each
manufacturer of such product shall, within ten (10) days after
notice of such determination, file with Code Authority a net price
list, or a price list with discount sheet, as the case may be, individually
prepared by him showing his current prices, or prices and discounts,
and terms of sale and payment, and the Code Authority shall im-
mediately publish and send copies thereof to all known manufac-
turers of such specified prcxlucts who are cooperating under this
Code as described in Article V, Section (a).

Kevised price lists and/or discount sheets and/or terms of sale
and i)ayment may be tiled from time to time thereafter with the
Code Authority by any manufacturer of such product, to become
operative upon the date si)ecified therein, but such revised price
lists and/or discount sheets and/or terms of sale and payment shall
be filed with the Code Authority ten (10) days in advance of the

487

operative date. Copies thereof, with notice of the operative date
specified, sliall be immediately published and sent to all known
manufacturers of such product, any of whom may file, if he so
desires, revisions of his price lists and/or discount sheets and/or
terms of sale and pajanent, which shall become effective upon the
date when the revised price lists and/or discount sheets and/or
terms of sale and payment first filed shall go into effect.^

(b) If and when the Code Authority shall determine that in any
group of the Subdivision not now selling its products on the basis of
price lists, Avith or without discount sheets, with terms of sale and
paj'ment, the distribution or marketing conditions in the group are
the same as, or similar to, the distribution or marketing conditions in
a group where the use of price lists, with or without discount sheets,
and terms of sale and paj^ment is well recognized, and that a system
of selling on net price lists or price lists and discount sheets with
terms of sale aiid payment should be put into effect in such group,
then each manufacturer of the product or products of such group
shall within twenty (20) days after notice of such determination,
file with the Code Authority net price lists or price lists and discount
sheets, with terms of sale and payment, showing his prices and dis-
counts and terms of sale and payment, and such price lists and/or
discount sheets ancl/or terms of sale and payment may be thereafter
revised in the manner hereinbefore provided; and such methods of
pricing and revisions thereof shall be " published and sent " as de-
scribed in Article VIII (a). Provided that Code Authority shall
make no determination to place any product of the Subdivision (not
now on a price list basis) on a price list basis, as provided in this
paragraph (b) of Article VIII unless affirmative consent to such
determination is given by a 66%% vote of the employers who are co-
operating in this Code and wdio are at that time engaged in manufac-
turing such product. The eligibility requirements, method, and
effect of such voting shall be the same as is provided by Article V.

No employer shall sell directlj^ or indirectly by any means what-
soever, any product of the Subdivision covered by provisions of this
Article VIII at a different price, or on more favorable terms of sale
and payment, than those provided in his own current net price lists,
or price lists and discount sheets, and terms of sale and payment.^

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The Pkesidext,

The ^yhlte Hoitse.
Sir : This is a report on the Supplemental Code of Fair Competi-
tion for the Diesel En<>ine Mannfactiirino^ Subdivision of Machinery
and Allied Products Industry, a Public Hearing on which was held
in Washington, D. C, on November 22, 1933, and reconvened De-
cember 21, 1933. The Hearing was conducted in full accordance with
the 23rovisions of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery Act.

GENERAL STATEMENT

The Diesel Engine Manufacturing Subdivision, being truly repre-
sentative of the numufacturers of the products defined in Article II
of the Supplemental Code, has elected to formulate and submit a
Supplemental Code of Fair Competition as provided in Article I of
the Code of Fair Competition for the Machinery and Allied Products
Inclustr}', approved by you on the seventeenth day of March 1934.

The Diesel Engine Manufacturing Subdivision means the manu-
facture for sale of Diesel engines and/or parts thereof, except Diesel
engines used (1) in, and for the propulsion of, aeroplanes, auto-
mobiles, trucks or tractors, and (2) in. and for the operation of,
portable air compressors, and includes all those engaged in such
manufacture for sale.

ECX)NOMIC EFFECT

The manufacture of Diesel Engines is rapidly expanding into
various new field ap])lications, although the total volume production
of the Subdivision has been very seriously curtailed from year to
3'ear since 1929, export volume declining much more, proportionately,
than domestic production. With any general revival in capital goods
production the volume of this Subdivision will expand rapidly.
Volume declined from $26,800,000 in 1929 to $13,415,000 in 1931, or
practically 50%. The Subdivision estimates that there was a further
decline iii 1932 to about $8,260,000. Exports in 1929 represented
almost 14% of total production, and in 1932 only 7.5%.

Official statistics on employment in the Diesel engine Subdivision
are not available. In addition to the 9.588 wage earners in 1929.
the Subdivision reported about 2,400 executives, supervisory, admin-
istrative, and other employees. Wage earners in February 1933,
were estimated at 3,690, rising to 4,420 by July 1933.

The Research and Planning Division report it is difficult to deter-
mine how much re-employment will be effected in this Subdivision
as a result of the reduction in hours. This Division estimates hours
would have to be reduced to an average of less than 19 per week in
order to re-employ the 1929 labor force at the July 1933 level of
production.

(495)

496

Average weekly wages paid to factory employees amounted to
$32.53 in 1929 for all wage earners and to $23.69 for unskilled work-
ers. By February 1933. these averages had declined to $18.91 and
$13.23 respectively, but in July, 1933 they increased to $21.99 and
$16.55 — this inci-ease undoubtedly being due to the longer working
week prevailing in July than in February.

The wage provisions for the Subdivision, which is operating
under the Code of the Machinery and Allied Products Industry,
provide that employees engaged in plant operations shall be paid as
follows: (1) in cities of more than 50.000 population and their im-
mediate vicinity, 40 cents per hour; (2) in cities of more than 10,000
but not more than 50,000 population and their innnediate vicinity,
which cities are not in the immediate vicinity of a city of more than
50,000 population, 38 cents per hour; (3) in cities of 10,000 popula-
tion or less and their immediate vicinity, which cities are not in the
immediate vicinity of a city of more than 10,000 population, 36
cents per hour, except that employees engaged in plant operations
in all localities in the states of Virginia, North Carolina, South
Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkan-
sas, Louisiana, Texas, and Oklahoma, shall be paid not less than 32
cents per hour.

"When females do substantially the same work as males or replace
males, the}^ shall receive the same pay. However, no female em-
ployee shall be paid less than 87^4% of the proper rate for the
locality in which employed.

Office boys and girls and apprentices shall be paid not less than
80% of the minimum wage.

Employees other than those engaged in plant operations shall
receive not less than $15.00 per week.

This Supplemental Code provides that no person under sixteen
years of age shall be employed in this Subdivision.

Article X establishes that no provision of this Supplemental Code
relating to pricing and marketing shall apply to export trade.

Article XI : This Supplemental Code and all the provisions thereof
are expressly made subject to the right of the President in accord-
ance with subsection (b) of Section 10 of the Act, from time to time
to cancel or modify any order, approval, license, rule or regulation
issued under said Act. Provision is also made that modifications
may be submitted by the Code Authority.

Article XII provides means for withdrawal of this Subdivision
from the Basic C^ode and its continuance as an autonomous Code.

FINDINGS

The Assistant Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on
said Supplemental Code having found as herein set forth and on the
basis of all the proceedings in this matter :

I find that :

(a) Said Supplemental Code is well designed to promote the
policies and purposes of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery
Act, including 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 organiza-
tion of industry for the purpose of cooperative action among the
trade groups, by inducing and maintaining united action of labor
and management under adequate governmental sanctions and super-
vision, by eliminating unfair competitive practices, by promoting the
fullest possible utilization of the present productive capacity of in-
dustries, 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) Said Subdivision normally employs not more than 50,000
employees; and is not classified by me as a major industry.

(c) The Supplemental Code as approved 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 T, and Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof; and that the
applicant association is an industrial association truly representa-
tive of the aforesaid Subdivision; and that said association imposes
no inequitable restrictions on admission to membership therein.

(d) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and will not per-
mit monopolies or monopolistic practices.

498

(e) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and will not elimi-
nate or u])p^e^-s small enterprises and will not operate to discriminate
aj^ainst them.

(f) Those engaged in other steps of the economic process have
not been deprived of the right to be heard prior to ap])roval of said
Supplemental Code.

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved this Supplemental
Code, provided that certain provisions relating to price publication
in Article VIII, Section (a), trading in of used equipment Article
VIII. Section (c), and pooled buying Article VIII, Section (f) are
stayed as stated in the Order.
Respectfully,

and/or estinuite costs in accordance with the principles of such
methods.

Article VII — Selling Below Reasonable Cost

Section 1. When the Code Authority determines that an emer-
gency exists as to any product or products in this Subdivision and
that the cause thereof is destructive price-cutting such as to render
ineffective or seriously endanger the maintenance of the provisions
of this Supplemental Code, the Code Authority may cause to be
determined the lowest reasonable cost of such product or products
of this Subdivision, such determination to be subject to such notice
and hearing as the Administrator may require. The Administrator
may approve, disapprove, or modify the determination. There-
after, during the period of the emergency, it shall be an unfair trade
practice for any employer of the Subdivision to sell or offer to sell
any product or products of the Subdivision for which the lowest
reasonable cost has been determined at such prices or upon such
terms or conditions of sale that the buyer will pay less therefor
than the lowest reasonable cost of such ])roducts.

When it appears that conditicms have changed, the Code Au-
thority, upon its own initiative or upon the request of any interested
party, shall cause the determination to be reviewed.

Section 2. The f(jregoing Section (1) shall not apply to (a)
dropped lines, or (b) seconds, or (c) inventories which must be
converted into cash to meet emergency needs, all of which may be

conditions, but only if such employer, not less than two weeks be-
fore such pro})ose(l dis])osal, has filed with Code Authority a state-
ment in writing setting forth the facts of, and reasons for, such
I)roposed disposal and the price and terms and conditions of sale,
and Code Authority has not, (with the approval of the Adrninis-
trator), before the termination of such two week period, in writing,
disapproved the proposed disposal.

503

Section 3. The foregoing Section (1) shall not apply to a sale
made in order to meet competition on jDrodiicts manufactured out-
side the United States. For such disposal, any employer may sell,
at prices and on terms and conditions as favorable as those of the
competing foreign product, but only if he has first reported to the
Code Authority his intention so to sell, and the facts as to the compe-
tition which justifies such action.

For the purpose of gathering statistical data for the determina-
tion or revision of a lowest reasonable cost under this Article VII,
the Code Authority shall have power, on its own initiative, or on
the request of any employer, to investigate, to the extent permitted
by the Act, any price or the terms of sale and payment for any
product or products of this Subdivision manufactured by any eni-
j)loyer; and, for the pur]:)Ose of the investigation thereof, to require,
to the extent permitted by the Act, such employer to furnish such
information concerning the cost of manufacturing and selling such
product or products as the Code Authority shall deem necessary or
proper for such purpose.

Article VIII — Price Lists

(a) If and when the Code Authority determines that in any group
of the Subdivision it has been the generally recognized practice to
sell a specified product on the basis of net price lists, or price lists
with discount sheets, and fixed terms of sale and payment, each
emplo3'er manufacturing such product shall, within ten (10) days
after notice of such determination, file with the Code Authority, a
net price list, or a price list and discount sheet, as the case may be,
individually prepared by him, showing his current prices, or prices
and discounts, and terms of sale and payment, and the Code Author-
ity shall immediately publish and send copies thereof to all known
employers in the Subdivision manufacturing such specified product.

Revised price lists and/or discount sheets and/or terms of sale
and payment may be filed from time to time thereafter with the
Code Authority by any employer manufacturing such product, but
such revised price lists and/or discount sheets and/or terms of sale
and payment shall be filed with the Code Authority twenty (20) days
in advance of the effective date specified. The Code Authority or
the proper Group Code Authority may establish a shorter period at
any time, provided no revisions then waiting operative date shall
be affected thereby. Copies of such revised price lists and/or dis-
count sheets and/or terms of sale and payment with notice of the
effective date specified, shall be immediately published and sent to
all known employers in the Subdivision manufacturing such prod-
uct, any of whom may file, if he so desires, to become effective upon
the date when the revised price list and/or discount sheet and/or
terms of sale and payment first filed shall go into effect, revisions
of his price lists and/or discount sheets and/or terms of sale and
payment establishing prices or prices and discounts not lower or
terms of sale and payment not better than those established in the
revised price lists and/or discount sheets and/or terms of sale and
payment first filed.^

(b) If and when the Code Authority shall determine that in any
group of the Subdivision, not now selling its product on the basis
of price lists, with or without discount sheets, with fixed terms of
sale and payment, the distribution or marketing conditions in said
group are the same as, or similar to, the distribution or marketing
conditions in a group of the Subdivision where the use of price
lists, with or without discount sheets, and fixed terms of sale and
payment, is well recognized, and that a system of selling on net
price lists or price lists and discount sheets with fixed terms of
sale and payment should be put into effect in such group, then each
emi)loyer numufacturing the product or products of such group shall
within twenty (20) days after notice of such determination, file with
the Code Authority net price lists or price lists and discount sheets,
containing fixed terms of sale and payment, showing his current
prices and discounts and terms of sale and payment, and such price
lists and/or discount sheets and/or terms of sale and payment shall
be published and sent to all known employers in the Subdivision
manufacturing such product, and ma}' thereafter be revised in the
manner hereinabove provided; provided, however, that the Code
Authority shall make no determination to place any product of the
Subdivision (not now on a price list basis) on a price list basis,
as provided in this paragi'aph (b) of Article VIII, unless affirmative
consent to such determination is given by a 66% per cent vote of em-
ployers in the Subdivision who are at that time engaged in manu-
facturing such product, and who are entitled to vote pursuant to
the provisions of Section (a) of Article V hereof, weighted on the
basis of one vote for each $50,000 of sales of products of the Sub-
division made in the latest previous calendar jenv for which sta-
tistics have been reported to Code Authority, provided, however,
that each employer who reports his sales shall have at least one vote.

(c) No emplo3'er shall take or accept in trade any second-hand
or old equipment in part payment for new equipment, pi-ovided, Iioav-
ever. that this paragraph shall not be construed to prohibit the return
to the vendor within one year from the date of shipment of. and the
allowance by the vendor of an}' fair adjustment on, any product
which shall not have met the specified purposes for which it was
sold. Any employer may assist in finding a bona fide buyer for
second-hand or old equipment, but in no case shall he guarantee
any particular return thereon or therefor.^

(d) Each employer shall prepare, and shall furnish the Code
Authority for distribution with, such number of copies of his price
lists and/or discount sheets and terms of sale and payment as Code
Authority may require for administration and distribution.

(e) Xo employer shall bid, quote or sell directly or indirectly by
any means whatsoever, any product of the Subdivision covered by
the provisions of this Article VIII at a price or at discounts or on
terms of sale and payment different from those provided in his own
current net price lists, or price lists and discount sheets, with terms
of sale and payment.

(f) No employer shall sell to or through any broker, jobber, com-
mission account or sales agency, (this is known in the trade as
" pooled buying ") who or which is in fact an agent for an organiza-

tion of retailers or industrial consumers, with the result that any
retailer or industrial consumer secures a discount, allowance or price
different from the discount, allowance or price provided for pur-
chasers of the same class in the employer's own current net price
lists or price lists with discount sheets.^

facturer's name or trade mark and which has required special design-
ing, research or development exj^ense continues to make and supply
sucli spare, repair or replacement parts for such product, no other
employer shall supply such spare, repair, or replacement parts for
such product unless (1) the name of the actual manufacturer of such
parts shall be plainly marked on each part, or, if this is impracti-

EEPORT TO THE PKESIDENT

The President,

The White House.
Dear Sir: This is a report on the Supplemental Code of Fair
Competition for the Jack Maniifactiirinfr Subdivision of Machinery
and Allied Products Industry, a Public Hearing on which was held
in Washington, D.C., on December 21, 1933. The Hearing was
conducted in full accordance with the provisions of Title I of the
National Industrial Recovery Act.

GENERAL STATEMENT

The Jack Manufacturing Subdivision being representative of the
manufacturers of the products defined in Article II of the Supple-
mental Code, has elected to formulate and submit a Supplemental
Code of Fair Competition as provided in the second paragraph of
Article I of the Code of Fair Competition for the Machinery and
Allied Products Industry, approved by you on the seventeenth day
of March, 1934.

The Jack Manufacturing Subdivision means the manufacture for
sale of jacks and parts thereof used generally in the construction,
railroad, mining, and general industrial field, exclusive of automotive
jacks, and includes all those engaged in such manufacture for sale.

ECONOMIC EFFECT

This Subdivision has been severely affected by the depression.
This is evidenced by the steady decline in annual sales from $2,419,000
in 1929 to $516.000"in 1932, or 78.7 per cent. Sales for the first seven
months of 1933 were estimated at $345,000.

In 1929 this Subdivision employed 293 factory workers, which
total declined to 105 in the second quarter of 1933, or 64%, and
increased to approximately 160 as of October 15, 1933.

Approximately 26% of the factory workers were working more
than 40 hours per week during the week of June 15, 1933. The
average work week declined from 47.5 hours in 1929 to 28.0 hours
as of June 15, 1933, then increased to 30.5 hours as of October 15,
1933.

Approximately 17.5 per cent of the total factory workers employed
as of June 15, 1933, were receiving less than 40 cents per hour; 14.4
per cent were receiving less than 38 cents per hour ; and 5.6 per cent
were receiving less than 32 cents per hour.

less and their innnediate vicinity, which cities are not in the imme-
diate vicinity of a city of more than 10,000 population, 36 cents per
hour, except that employees engaged in plant operations in all local-
ities in the states of Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina,
Georgia, Florida, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisi-
ana, Texas, and Oklahoma, shall be paid not less than 32 cents per
hour.

"When females do substantially the same work as males or replace
males, they shall receive the same pay. However, no female em-
ployee shall be paid less than 87y2% of the proper rate for the
locality in wdiich emploj^ed.

Employees other than those engaged in plant operations shall
receive not less than $15.00 per week.

FIX DINGS

The Assistant Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on
said Supplemental Code having found as herein set forth and on
the basis of all the proceedings in this matter :

I find that :

(a) Said Supplemental Code is well designed to promote the
policies and purposes of Title I of the National Industrial Kecovery
Act, including removal of obstructions to the free flow of interstate
and foreign connnerce which tend to diminish the amount thereof
and will provide for the general Avelfare by promoting the organiza-
tion of industry for the purpose of cooperative action among the
trade groups, by inducing and maintaining united action of labor
and management under adequate governmental sanctions and super-
vision, 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 b}^ otherwise rehabilitating industry.

(b) Said Subdivision normally employs not more than 50,000
employees; and is not classified by me as a major industry.

(c) The Supplemental Code as approved 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 T, and Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof; and that the
applicant association is an association representative of the aforesaid
Subdivision; and that said association imposes no inequitable restric-
tions on admission to membership therein.

(d) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and will not per-
mit monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(e) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and will not elimi-
nate or oppress small enterprises and will not operate to discriminate
against tliem.

(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
Supplemental Code.

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved this Supplemental
Code, provided that certain provisions relating to price publication,
trade practices and product sale are stayed as stated in the Order.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Administrato7\

may require. The Administrator may approve, disapprove, or
modify the determination. Thereafter, during the period of the
emergency, it shall be an unfair trade practice for any employer of
the Subdivision to sell or offer to sell any products of the Subdivi-
sion for which the lowest reasonable cost has been determined at
such prices or upon such terms or conditions of sale that the buyer
will pay less therefor than the lowest reasonable cost of such product.

"When it appears that conditions have changed, the Code Author-
ity, upon its own initiative or upon the request of any interested
party, shall cause the determination to be reviewed.

Section 2. The foregoing Section 1 shall not apply to dropped
lines wliich may be disposed of by any employer at any price and
on any terms or conditions, but only if such employer, not less than
two weeks before such proposed disposal, has filed with Code Au-

518

thority a statement in writing setting forth the facts of, and reasons
for, such proposed disposal and the price and terms and conditions of
sale, and Code Authority has not, (with the approval of the Admin-
istrator), before the termination of such two Aveek period, in writing,
disapproved the proposed disposal. Notice of such disposal, if not
disapprovetl. shall be sent immediately to all employers manufactur-
ing prochicts of equivalent design, character, quality or specifications,
who ma,v sell such products at prices and on terms and conditions as
favorable as those stipulated in the proposed disposal, when meeting
the competition of such proposed disposal.

Section 3. The foregoing Section 1 shall not apply to a sale made
in order to meet competition on products manufactured outside the
United States. For such disposal, any employer may sell, at prices
and on terms and conditions as favorable as those of the competing
foreign product, but only if he has first reported to the Code Au-
thority his intention so to sell, and the facts as to the competition
which justifies such action.

Article VIII — Price Lists

(a) If and when Code Authority determines that in any group
of the Subdivision it has been the generally recognized practice to
sell a specified product on the basis of net price lists, or price lists
with discount sheets, and terms of sale and payment, each employer
engaged in the manufacture of such product shall, within ten (10)
days after notice of such determination, file with Code Authority a
net price list, or a price list with discount sheet, as the case may be,
individually prepared by him, shoAving his current prices, or prices
and discounts, and terms of sale and payment for such specified
product, and Code Authority shall immediately publish and send
copies thereof to all known employers who are cooperating under this
Supplemental Code as described in Article V (e) and engaged in the
manufacture of such specified products.

Kevised price lists and/or discount sheets and/or terms of sale
and payment may be filed from time to time thereafter with the Code
Authority by any such employer, to become operative upon the date
specified therein, but such revised price lists 'ancl/or discount sheets
and/or terms of sale and payment shall be filed with the Code
Authority ten (10) days in advance of the operative date. Copies
thereof, with notice of the operative date specified, shall be imme-
diately published and sent to all employers cooperating under this
Supplemental Code as described in Article V (e), any of whom may
file, if he so desires, revisions of his price lists and/or discount sheets
and/or terms of sale and payment, which shall become effective upon
the date when the revised price list and/or discount sheets and/or
terms of sale and payment first filed shall go into effect. Each em-
ployer shall prepare and furnish the Code Authority for distribu-
tion with such number of copies of his price lists and/or discount
sheets and terms of sale and payment as Code Authority may
prescribe.^

(b) If and when Code Authority shall determine that in any
group of the Subdivision not now selling its product on the basis

1 See paragraph 2 (1) of order approving this Code.

519

of price lists, with or without discount sheets, with terms of sale and
payment, the distribution or marketing conditions in the group are
the same as, or similar to, the distribution or marketing conditions
in a group where the use of price lists, with or without discount
sheets and terms of sale and payment is well recognized, and that
a system of selling on net price lists or price lists and discount sheets
with terms of sale and payment for such specified product should
be put into effect in such group, then each employer in such group
shall within twenty (20) days after notice of such deternrlnation,
file with Code Authority net price lists or price lists and discount
sheets, with terms of sale and payment, showing his prices and dis-
counts and terms of sale and payment, and such price lists and/or
discount sheets and/or terms of sale and payment may be thereafter
revised in the manner hereinbefore provided ; and such methods of
pricing and revisions thereof shall be " published and sent " as de-
scribed in Article VIII (a) ; provided that Code Authority shall
make no determination to place any product of the Subdivision (not
now on a price list basis) on a price list basis, as provided in this
Section unless affirmative consent to such determination is given by
a 66%% vote of employers who are at that time cooperating under
this Supplemental Code as described in Article V (e), and are
engaged in manufacturing such product. The eligibility require-
ments, method, and effect of such voting shall be the same as is pro-
vided by Article V.

(c) For the purpose of gathering statistical data for the determi-
nation or revision of a lowest reasonable cost under Article VII, the
Code Authorit}' shall have power, on its own initiative, or on the
request of any employer, to investigate, to the extent permitted by
the Act, any price or the terms of sale and payment for any product
shown in any price list and/or discount sheet filed with the Code
Authority by any employer; and, for the purpose of the investiga-
tion thereof, shall appoint competent representatives who shall not
be an employer or in the employ of any empioj'er affected by the
Code; and also to require, to the extent permitted by the Act, such
employer to furnish, under restrictions as provided in the two para-
graphs of Section (f). Article VI of the Code, such information
concerning the cost of manufacturing and selling such product as
the Code Authority shall deem necessary or proper for such purpose.

(d) No employer shall sell directly or indirectly by any means
Avhatsoever, any ])roduct of the Subdivision covered by provisions
of this Article VIII at a price or at discounts or on terms of sale
and payment, different from those provided in his own current net
price lists, or price lists and discount sheets, and terms of sale and
payment; except a,'^ provided in Article VII, Sections 2 and 3.

(e) No employer shall evade any provision of this Code by selling
to or through any dealer, jobber, distributor or other selling agency
which shall fail to agree to resell in accordance with the provisions of
Articles VII, VIII and IX of this Supplemental Code.-

Article IX — Unfair Trade Practices

finish, material, content or preparation) or credit terms, values,
policies, services, or the nature or form of the business conducted.

dislionorable conduct, inability to perform contracts, questionable
credit standing, or by other misrepresentations with the tendency
and capacity to mislead and deceive purchasers or prospective
purchasers.

cles having a published price and discounts, at any price and dis-

means of direct or indirect price concessions, or by means of any
privilege not extended to purchasers of the same class generally.^

6. The selling to, or through any broker, commission account or
sales agency, wdio or which is in fact an agent for an organization
of industrial consumers, with the result that any industrial con-

in the employer's own current net price lists or price lists with
discount sheets.*

7. The taking in trade or accepting in trade any second-hand or
old equipment in part payment for new. provided, however, that this
provision shall not be construed to ]3rohibit in any way the return

EEPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.
Sir : This is a report on the Supplemental Code of Fair Competi-
tion for the Raihvay Appliance Manufacturing Subdivision of the
Machinery and Allied Products Industry, Public Hearing having
been conducted thereon in Washington, D.C., December 21, 1933, in
accordance with the provisions of Title I of the National Industrial
Recovery Act.

GENERAL STATEMENT

The Railway Appliance Manufacturers Association being repre-
sentative of the manufacture of the products defined in Article II
of the Supplemental Code, has elected to formulate and submit a
Supplemental Code of Fair Competition as provided in Article I of
the Code of Fair Competition for the Machinery and Allied Prod-
ucts Industry, approved by 3^ou on the seventeenth day of March,
1934.

The Railway Appliance Manufacturing Subdivision means the
manufacture for sale of railway hand cars, push cars, velocipede
cars, motor cars and special appliances thereof, locomotive water
cranes and parts thereof, and includes all those engaged in such
manufacture for sale.

ECONOMIC EFFECT

This Subdivision has been affected by the depression and the ill
effect may be attributed to the fact that this Subdivision depends to
a large degree on the railroads as a market for its products.

Production dropped from $4,740,000 in 1929 to $1,210,000 in 1933,
a decrease of 74.5 per cent.

Employment totaled 875 persons in 1929 as against 450 in 1933,
a loss of 48.5 per cent.

Total payrolls amounted to $1,361,000 in 1929 and but $350,000
in 1933, a decline of 74.2 per cent.

By June 1933, average hours per man per week for factory work-
ers had decreased 34.4 per cent; average earnings per man per week
had decreased 50.4 per cent.

The President's Reemployment Agreement effected increases in
employment and payrolls. Substantial business improvement is ex-
pected in 1934 because of governmental loans to the railroads for
purchase of maintenance of way equipment.

FINDINGS

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said Sup-
plemental Code having found as herein set forth and on the basis
of all the proceedings in this matter:

(525)

526

I fiml that:

(a) Saiel Sui)plemental Code is "vvoll designed to promote the poli-
cies and purposes of Title I of the Xatioiial Industrial Recovery Act,
including 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 the trade
groups, by inducing and maintaining united action of labor and
management under adequate governmental sanctions and supervi-
sion, b}' eliminating unfair competitive practices, by promoting the
fullest possible utilization of the present productive capacity of in-
dustries, by avoiding undue restriction of production (except as may
be temiDorarily required), by increasing the consumption of indus-
trial and agricultural products through increasing purchasing
power, by reducing and relieving unemployment, by improving
standards of labor, and by otherwise rehabilitating industry,

(b) Said Subdivision normally employs not more than 50,000 em-
ployees; and is not classified by me as a major industry.

(c) The Supplemental Code as approved 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; and that the
applicant association is an industrial association representative of
the aforesaid Subdivision; and that said association imposes no
inequitable restrictions on admission to membership therein.

(d) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and will not permit
monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(e) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and wall not elimi-
nate 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
Supplemental Code,

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved this Supplemental
Code; on condition that certain provisions are stayed, as stated in
the Order.

Respectfully,

Hugh S, Johnson,

Admi7iistrator.

2. No employer shall secretly offer or make any payment or allow-
ance of a rebate, refund, commission credit, unearned discount or

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.
Sir : This is a report on the Supplemental Code of Fair Competi-
tion for the Hydraulic Machinery Subdivision of Machmery and
Allied P.-oducts Industry, a Public Hearing on which was held in
AVashington, D.C, on Deceuiber 21, 1938, The Hearing was con-
ducted in full accordance with the provisions of Title I of the
National Industrial Recovery Act.

GENERAL STATEMENT

The Hydraulic Machinery Subdivision, being truly representative
of the manufacturers of the products defined in Article II of the
Supplemental Code, has elected to formulate and submit a Supj^le-
mental Code of Fair Competition as provided in the second para-
graph of Article I of the Code of Fair Competition for the Machinery
and Allied Products Industry, approved by j^ou on the seventeenth
day of March, 1934.

The Hyraulic Machinery Subdivision means the manufacture for
sale, erecting, and selling of h3'draulic machinery of all kinds and
parts thereof, whether using water or any other liquid as enumerated
in detail in the Supplemental Code attached thereto. It excludes,
however, prime movers such as turbines, water wheels, and their
accessory equipment, hydraulic brakes and/or parts therefor, hy-
draulic shock absorbers, hydraulic bumpei's and hydraulic dump
trucks. It includes all those engaged in such nuuiufacture for sale.

ECONOMIC EFFECT

This Subdivision has been severely affected by the recent depres-
sion. This is evidenced by the steady decline in annual sales since
1929. The volume of production as reported by the Division qf
Economic Research and Planning declined from $10,000,000 in 1929
to $2,000,000 in 1932, or 80%. Sales as reported for the first six
months in 1933 amounted to only $700,000. However, an increase in
production is indicated by an increase in man-hours reported since
the second quarter of 1933.

Employment of approximately 1,456 factory workers in 1929
declined to about 6r)l workers, or 55%, during the first quarter of
1933. Since then employment has increased.

Approximately 44% of the factory workers in June 1933 were
working more than 40 hours per week. The average work week
in Oc-tober 1933 was 37.8 hours.

In .June 1933 about 25% of the factory workers were receiving
less tiian 40 cents per hour. The lowest minimum wage as of Oc-
tober 1933 reported by the Industry was 30 cents per hour.

(536)

537

The wage provisions for the Subdivision, which is operating under
the Code of the Machinery and Allied Products Industry, provide
that employees engaged in plant operations shall be paid as follows:
(1) in cities of more than 50,000 population and their immediate
vicinity, 40 cents per hour; (2) in cities of more than 10,000 but not
more than 50,000 population and their immediate vicinity, which
cities are not in the immediate vicinitj^ of a city of more than 50,000
population, 38 cents per hour; (3) in cities of 10,000 j)0})ulation or
less and their immediate vicinity, whicli cities are not in the imme-
diate vicinity of a city of more than 10,000 population, 36 cents per
hour, except that employees engaged in plant operations in all local-
ities in the states of Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina,
Georgia, Florida, Tennessee, A labama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisi-
ana, Texas, and Oklahoma, shall be paid not less than 32 cents per
hour.

When females do substantially the same work as males or replace
males, they shall receive the same pay. However, no female em-
ployee shall be paid less than 87i/2% of the proper rate for the local-
ity in which employed.

Office boys and girls and apprentices shall be paid not less than
80 9f of the minimum wage.

Employees other than those engaged in plant operations shall
receive not less than $15.00 per week.

The Code provides that no person under 16 years of age shall be
employed in the Subdivision.

1 Based on the distribution as of June 15, 1933, and on the specified percentages of the number of factory
workers receiving less than the designated rates shown in the above table, the adoption of the proposed mini-
mum rates will probably cause an increase in factory pay rolls. The estimated increase probably will not
exceed four percent.

FINDINGS

The Assistant Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on
said Supjilemental Code having found as herein set .forth and on
the basis of all the proceedings in this matter:

I find that:

(a) Said Supplemental Code is well designed to promote the
policies and purpo,';es of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery
Act, including 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 organ-
ization of industry for the purpose of cooperative action among the
trade groups, by inducing and maintaining united action of labor
and management under adequate govei-nmental sanctions and super-
vision, by eliminating unfair conii)etitive practices, by i)romoting
the fullest possible utilizati(m of the present productive capacity of
industries, ])y avoiding un(hie restriction of production (except as
may be temi)()rarily re([uired). by increasing the consumption of in-
dustrial and agricultural ])r()(lucts through increasing jHirchasing
power, by reducing and relieving unemployment, by improving
standards of labor, and by otherw^ise rehabilitating industry.

(b) Said Subdivision normally employs not more than 50,000
employees; and is not classified by me as a major industry.

(c) The Supplemental Code as approved complies in all respects
with the ]x'rtinent provisions of said Title of said Act, including
without limitation Subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of
Section 7, Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof; and that the appli-

539

cant association is an industrial association truly representative of
the aforesaid Subdivision; and that said association imposes no
inequitable restrictions on admission to membership therein.

(d) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and will not permit
monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(e) The Suj^plemental Code is not designed to and will not elimi-
nate or oppress small enterprises and will not operate to discrimi-
nate 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
Supplemental Code.

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved this Supplemental
Code.

Kespectfully,

August 2, 1934.

destroy the validity, and/or accuracy of the said accounting prin-
ciples and methods.

Article VII — Selling Below Reasonable Cost

Section 1. When the Code Authority determines that an emer-
gency exists in this Subdivision and that the cause thereof is de-
structive price-cutting such as to render ineffective or seriously en-
danger the maintenance of the provisions of this Supplemental Code,
the Code Authority may cause to be determined the lowest reason-
able cost of the products of this Subdivision, such determination to be
subject to such notice and hearing as the Administrator may require.
The Administrator may approve, disapprove, or modify the deter-
mination. Thereafter, during the period of the emergency, it shall
be an unfair trade practice for any employer of the Subdivision to
sell or offer to sell any products of the Subdivision for which the
lowest reasonable cost has been determined at such prices or upon
such terms or conditions of sale that the buyer will pay less therefor
than the lowest reasonable cost of such products.

When it appears that conditions have changed, the Code Authority,
upon its own initiative or upon the request of any interested party,
shall cause the determination to be reviewed.

544

Section 2. The foregoin<r Section (1) shall not apply to (a)
dropijed lines, or (b) seconds, or (c) inventories which must be
converted into cash to meet emertrency needs, all of which may be
disposed of by any employer at any price and on any terms or con-
ditions, but only if such em])loyer. not less than two weeks before
such proposed dis]X)sal, has filed with Code Authorit}^ a statement
in writing setting forth the facts of, and reasons for, such proposed
disposal and the price and terms and conditions of sale, and Code
Authorit}' has not, (with the approval of the Administrator), before
the termination of such two week period, in writing, disapproved
the proposed disposal. Notice of such disposal, if not disapproved,
shall be sent immediately to all employers manufacturing products
of equivalent design, character, quality or specifications, who may
sell such pi )ducts at prices and on terms and conditions as favor-
able as those stipulated in the ])roposed disposal, when meeting the
competition of such proposed disposal.

Section 3. The foregoing Section (1) shall not apply to a sale
made in order to meet competition on products manufactured out-
side the United States. For such disposal, any employer may sell,
at prices and on terms and conditions as favorable as those of the
comi)eting foreign product, but only if he has first reported to the
Code Authority his intention so to sell, and the facts as to the
competition which justifies such action.

Article VIII — Prices

1. Proposals submitted by an employer shall not be revised except :
(a), when a change in the specifications is to be made, in which
case the revised proposal must equal only the change in the specifi-
cations; (b), upon the general reopening of bids.

2. Proposals shall not specify: (a) any discounts except one to
cover cash ])ayment in ten (10) days which discount must not
exceed y^ of 1% ; ^ (b) '^iiy allowance for freight or transportation.

Article IX — Trade Practices

Each of the following acts and practices is deemed to be inimical
to the best interests of the Subdivision and of the public, and each
is, therefore, hereby declared to be and to constitute an unfair
method of competition, and is hereby prohibited ; viz :

1. Dcfiti-uctive Price-Cutting. — Indulging in destructive price-
cutting.

2. hhducing Breach of Contract. — Inducing or attempting to in-'
duce the breach of a commercial contract between a competitor and
his customer during the term of such contract.

dishonorable conduct, inability to perform contracts, or c{uestionable
credit standing, and the false disparagement of the grade or quality
of his goods.

ployees of competitors with the purpose and effect of unduly

' See paragraph 2 (1) of order approving this Code.

anj^ manner restrict the right of any employee to seek employment
with any employer at any time.

5. Misrepresoitation hi/ False or Misleading Advert /H/n</. — The
making or causing or knowingly permitting to be made or published

another in relation to the business of the employer of such em-
ployee, the principal of such agent or the represented party, without
the knowledge of such employer, principal, or party. This provi-
sion shall not be construed to prohibit free and general distribution
of articles commonly used for advertising except so far as such
articles are actually used for commercial bribery as hereinabove
defined.

8. Secret Rebates. — The secret offering or making of any payment
or allowance of a rebate, refund, commission credit, unearned dis-
count or excess allowance, whether in the form of money or other-
wise, nor shall any employer of the Subdivision secretly offer or
extend to any customer any special service or privilege not extended
to all customers of the same class, for the purpose of influencing a
sale.

9. Used nydroAilic Equipment. — (a) The sale of used hydraulic
equipment without so classifying it as used equipment, (b) A copy

a quotation to a prospective customer based on original drawings
and designs prepared by a competitor and submitted to the customer
as the competitor's drawings and designs, without the competitor's
permission.

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The PRESIDENT,

Tlie White Hause.
Sir: This is a report of the Hoiiirino; on the Supplemental Code of.
Fair Competition of the Wholesale Paint. Varnish, Lacquer, Allied
and Kin(hed Products Trade, conducted in the Green Room of the
Ralei<^h Hotel, on May 4, IDIU. The Supplemental Code, which is
attached, was presented by a duly qualitied and authorized repre-
sentative of the Ti-ade, complyin<j^ with the statutory requirements,
said to represent 15 per cent in number and about 50 per cent in
volume of sales of the Trade which could be included in this Code.

THE TRADE

No adequate current statistics are available with respect to this
Trade. Accordinf^ to the Census of Distribution, however, there were
about 1,027 establishments liandlin*^ paint with a<j<ijre<j:ate annual
sales of $304,91)9,000; the total employees numbered 12,571.

PROVISIONS OF THE CODE

Since this Code is supplemental to the Code of Fair Competition
for the AVholesaling or Distributini>; Trade, it contains no labor
provisions.

The provisions containing supplemental dehnitions are considered
inclusive and accurate.

The supplement to the Administrative provisions of the General
Code establishes a Divisional Code Authority which is fairly and
adequately representative of all the different elements in the Trade.

The Trade Practices proposed are not considered in any way
objectionable.

FINDINGS

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said
Supplemental Code having found as herein set forth and on the
basis of all the proceedings in this matter;

I find that

(a) Said Supi)leniental Code is well designed to promote the
policies and pui-})Oses of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery
Act. including removal of ()l)structions to the free flow of interstate
and foi'eign connnerce which tend to diminish the amount thereof,
and will provide for the general Avelfare by promoting the oi-gan-
ization of industry for the purpose of cooperative action among
trade groups, by inducing and maintaining united action of labor
and management under adequate governmental sanctions and sui)er-
vision, by eliminating unfair competitive practices, by jjromoting
the fullest possible use of the })rcsent productive capacity of in-

(548)

549

dustries, 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) Said Trade normally employs not more than 50,000 employees
and it is not classified by me as a major industry.

(c) The Supplemental Code as approved complies in all respects
with the pertinent provisions of saicl Title of said Act, including
without limitation Subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of
Section 7 and Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof; and that the
applicant association is a trade association truly representative of
the aforesaid Trade; and that said association imposes no inequitable
restrictions on admission to membership therein.

(d) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and will not permit
monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(e) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and will not elim-
inate 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 the approval of
this Supplemental Code.

For these reasons, the Supplemental Code has been approved.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

A dminis trot or.

of this Supplemental Code, the Divisional Code Authority may
recjuest the Administrator, subject to such notice and hearing as he
may require, to declare such emergency and determine a mininmm

Labor Complaints and Disputes

By virtue of the authoritj^ vested in me under the National Indus-
trial Recovery Act, I hereby prescribe theiollowing regulations, super-
seding Administrative Order X-12.

1. Administrative Order X-12 is hereby abrogated.

2. With respect to labor complaints:

a. Code Authorities that have not already done so, are requested to
submit to the Administrator for approval, plans for the handling of
labor complaints. Until such plan has been approved, a Code
Authority is not authorized to handle labor complaints, with the ex-
ception of complaints voluntarily registered with the Code Authority.

b. Complaints may be handled by a bi-partisan committee, if
desired ; or, if such method is not deemed practicable or desirable, by
a committee composed of impartial members. In either event, the
plan of organization and the personnel of the committee are subject
to approval by the Administrator.

c. In many instances, it will be found practical for groups of related
trades or industries to cooperate in establishing a single committee.
In view of the potential resulting economy, efficiency, and elimination
of overlapping, serious consideration of this type of plan is urged.

d. If an industry, due to small size or other good cause, prefers that
labor complaints should be handled by the Compliance Division, a
request to that effect will be considered and a decision reached in the
light of the particular facts involved.

3. With respect to labor disputes:

a. This Administrative Order does not affect boards heretofore
authorized to deal with labor disputes.

b. Industries are not required by N.R.A.to set up boards under codes,
for the handling of labor disputes. Any industry contemplating such
a board should study Public Resolution 44 of the Seventy-Third Con-
gress and the subsequent Executive Order No. 6763 of June 29, 1934,
creating the National Labor Relations Board and should consult said
Board and the Administrator.

c. Cases heard by boards heretofore or hereafter authorized to deal
with labor disputes may be reviewed by the National Labor Relations
Board in the manner provided in said Executive Order No. 6763.
Moreover, such boards may be designated as special boards or other-
wise affected by the President acting pursuant to the authority con-
ferred by said Public Resolution 44.
