NOW, THEREFORE, on behalf of the President of the United

pursuant to authority vested in me by Executive Orders of the
President, including Executive Order No. 6543-A, dated Decem-
ber 30, 1933, and otherwise; do hereby incorporate by reference

Approval recommended :

WiLIJAM P. FaRNSWORTH,

Acting Division Administrator.

Washington, D.C,

August 6, 193 Jf.

REPOKT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House,

Sm: The Public Hearing on the Code of Fair Competition for
the Textile Examining, Shrinking, and Refinishing Industry was
conducted in Washington, D.C., March 10, 1934.

Every person who requested an appearance was fairly heard in
accordance with the regulations of the National Recovery Admin-
istration.

The Industry as defined in the Code includes the services of ex-
amining, sponging or shrinking, double sponging or shrinking,
decating, london, or water shrinking and refinishing of woolen and
other woven fabrics owned by others.

FINDINGS

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on sa'id 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 x\.ct, 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 supervision, by
eliminating unfair competitive practice, 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 Associ-
ation is an industrial association truly representative of the afore-
said industry, and that the 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.

(3)

(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 the Code has been approved.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

A dministrator,
August 6, 1934.

tion. The said election shall be under the supervision of the Admin-
istrator or his representative.

(b) One member to represent the members of the Industry who
are unaffiliated with the National Textile Refinishers Association, to
be elected by such members by a method of election approved by the
Administrator and conducted under the supervision of the Adminis-

appropriate modification in the method of selection of the Code
Authority.

4. Nothing contained in this Code shall constitute the members of

trator may require that such action be suspended to afford an oppor-
tunity for investigation of the merits or such action and further
consideration by such Code Authority or agency pending final action,
which shall not be effective unless the Administrator approves, or
unless he shall fail to disapprove after thirty days' notice to him
of intention to proceed with such action in its original or modified
form.

6. Subject to such rules and regulations as may be issued by the
Administrator, the Code Authority shall have the following powers
and duties, in addition to those authorized by other provisions of
this Code.

(a) To insure the execution of the provisions of this Code and

necessary for the purposes recited in Section 3 (a) of the Act, to
such Federal and State Agencies as the Administrator may desig-
nate ; provided that nothing in this Code shall relieve any member
of the Industry of any existing obligations to furnish reports to
any government agency. No individual reports shall be disclosed
to any other member of the Industry or any other party
except to such other govermental agencies as may be directed by the
Administrator.

(d) to use such trade associations and other agencies as it deems

78872° 1044-37 34 (13)

REPOET TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sib : The public hearing on the Code of Fair Competition for the
Corn Cob Pipe Industry of the United States, submitted by a Code
Committee of Corn Cob Pipe Manufacturers, was conducted in
Washington, D.C., on the 17th of May, 1934, in accordance with the
provisions of the National Industrial Recovery Act. The Code
Committee claims to represent approximately 90 percent of the
Industry,

The maximum hours established under this Code are 40 per week,
with the exception of one period, not to exceed four weeks, in each
six months, during which time employees may be permitted to work
48 hours per week provided they are paid at least time and one-half
for all hours worked in excess of eight per day and forty per week.

Exceptions are allowed for managers and executives who receive
$35.00 or more per week, enginers, who may work 45 hours per week,
and employees engaged in emergency maintenance and repair work,
provided that such employees receive at least one and one-half times
their normal rate of pay for all hours worked in excess of 40 per
week.

In 1929 this Industry operated approximately 51 hours per week
and the same hours prevailed in 1931.

The minimum wages established under this Code are 2Ti/^ cents
per hour for males and 221.^ cents per hour for females. While this
wage appears to be low, it is pointed out that when compared with
the wages prior to this Code, which were 19 cents per hour for
males and 13.8 cents per hour for females, the wages under this Code
represent a substantial increase to the employees. Protection of
employees on piecework performance is guaranteed.

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
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 the trade gi'oups, by induc-
ing and maintaining united action of labor and management under
adequate governmental sanctions and supervision, by eliminating
unfair competitive practices, by promoting the fullest possible utili-
zation of the present productive capacity of industries, by avoiding
undue restrictions of production (except as may be temporarily
required) by increasing the consumption of industrial and agricul-

(14)

tural 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 T, and
Subsection (b) of Section 10 Miereof ; and that the applicant Com-
mittee is a trade group truly representative of the aforesaid Industry.

(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.

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

Kespectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Administrator.
August 7, 1934.

Section 2. (a) Wilfully destructive price cutting is an unfair
method of competition and is forbidden. Any member of the in-
dustry or of any other industry or the customers of either may at
any time complain to the Code Authority that any price constitutes

enterprise or tending toward monopoly or the impairment of code
wages and working conditions. The Code Authority shall within 5
days afford an opportunity to the member quoting the price to
answer such complaint and shall within 14 days make a ruling or

anj'' time find both (1) that an emergency has arisen within the in-
dustry adversely affecting small enterprises or wages or labor con-
ditions, or tending toward monopoly or other acute conditions which
tend to defeat the purposes of the Act; and (2) that the determina-
tion of the stated minimum price for a specified product within the
industi-y 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 investi-
gate costs and to recommend to the Administrator a determination
of the stated minimum price of the product affected by the emer-
gency and thereupon the Administrator may proceed to determine
such stated minimum price.

(b) Wlien 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 Re-
covery Act, he shall publish such price. Thereafter, during such
stated period, no members of the industry shall sell such specified
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 White Hoivse.
Sir : This is a report of the hearing on the Code of Fair Competi-
tion for the Refrigerated Warehousing Industrj^, conducted in Wash-
ington, on March 15, 1934, in accordance witli the provisions of the
National Industrial Recovery Act.

THE INDUST1?Y

This Industry is vital to the health and well-being of the American
public in that it must constantly safeguard at adequate temperatures
much of the fruits, vegetables, fish, butter, eggs, fowl and meats, and
other edibles of our daily consumption.

There are 540 establishments in this Industry, and these firms have
an approximate capacity of 325,000,000 cubic feet; approximately
10,000 employees; with capital investment of over $250,000,000.

Approximately 80% of the members of this Industry are also en-
gaged in the ice business and of course use the same refrigerating
engineering staff, and much of the other labor is interchangeable.
Notwithstanding that fact, it is estimated that employment oi' labor
will be increased approximately 25% and an increase in paja-olls of
approximately 25%, an additional burden on indnstrv of some
$210,000 annually.

PROVISIONS OF THE CODE

The Code provides for a basic work week of forty-eight (48)
hours, and nine (9) hours per day and six (C) days per week, with
over-time provision, which in itself is a tremendous contribution by
industry in view of the exceedingly longer hours worked previoiivsly.

The proposed minimum hourly wage rates vary from 27.5 to 37.5
cents with differentials established on the basis of size of city and
region. The minimum Aveekly wage rate proposed for clerical em-
ployees is fifteen dollars ($15.00). The Code contains other highly
beneficial labor clauses.

Under Article VI, Administration, the Code provides for a Code
Authority of five (5) members from the Industry and, at the discre-
tion of the Administrator, tliree (3) additional members from the
Government.

The Trade Practice Sectimi of this Code is for the most part a
codification of rules and regulations which have been well established
by long practice within the Industry.

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;

(26)

I find that :

(a) Said Code is well designed to promote the policies and purposes
of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery Act, including re-
moval of obstructions to the free flow of interstate and foreign com-
merce 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 supervision, by elimi-
nating unfair competitive practices, by promoting the fullest pos-
sible utilization of the present productive capacity of industries, by
avoiding undue restriction of production (except as may be tem-
porarily required), by increasing the consumption of industrial and
agricultural products through increasing purchasing power, by re-
ducing and relieving unemployment by improving stanclarcls of labor,
and b}^ 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 group
of members of said industry is a group truly representative of the
aforesaid Industry; and that said group 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 wUl 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 de])rived of the right to be heard prior to approval of said Code.

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

Hugh S. Johnson,

A dministrator.
August 8, 1934.

Article VIII — Capacity Contkol

Based on conditions in this Industry and in this period of emer-
gency and to effectuate the operatioji, provisions and policy of the
National Industrial Recovery Act, the folloAving regulations are
established :

Section 1. No person engaged in this industry or for the purpose
of engaging in this industry shall purchase, construct, lease or other-
wise obtain or use storage capacity not owned, leased or otherwise
held by such person prior to the effective date of this Code, except by
applying to the Administrator through the Code Authority and ob-
taining permission of the Administrator upon his finding that the
granting of such permission is consistent v\"ith and tends to effectuate
the policy of the National Industrial Recovery x\ct ; but nothing con-
tained herein shall be construed to prevent the replacement by a
member of this industr}^ of storage capacity of equal capacity exist-
ing on the effective date of this Code or the transfer of storage ca-
pacity from one member to another person provided same was in use
prior to the effective date of this Code, and provided further that
such transfer does not have the etiect of creating additional storage
capacity within the Industiy.

Section 2. The provisions of this Article shall cease to be effec-
tive on the expiration of six months from the effective date of this
Code, provided, however, that prior to that time the Code Authority
may submit to the Administrator its recommendation that said
period be extended based on such information as may be required
and if the Administrator finds upon such informaticm and facts that
a further extension of this period is consistent with and tends fur-

ther to effectuate the policj^ of the National Industrial Eecovery
Act, he may declare the provisions of this Article to be operative for
such lono:er period and under such conditions as he may find neces-
sary further to effectuate the policy last herein mentioned.

Article IX — Costs and Price Cutting

Section 1. The standards of fair competition for the industry
with reference to the charging of rates are declared to be as folloAvs:

(a) Wilfiilly destructive rate cutting is an unfair method of com-
petition and is forbidden. Any member of the industry or any
other industry or the customers of either may at any time complain
to the Code Authority that any filed rates constitute unfair compe-
tition as destiTictive rate cutting, imperiling small enterprise or
^^ending toward monopoly or the impairment of code wages and
Trorki7?g conditions. The Code Authority shall within five (5) days
afford an opportunity to the member filing such rate 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 Avhich shall render a report and
recommendation thereon to the Administrator.

(b) When no declared emergency exists as to destructive rate cut-
ting there is to be no fixed minimum basis for rates. It is intended
that sound cost estimating methods should be used and that consid-
eration should be given to costs in the determination of rates.

(c) When an emergency exists a^ to any destructive rate cutting-
charges below the stated minimum rate of such service, in violation
of Section 2 hereof, is forbidden.

Section 2. Emergency Provmom. — (a) If the Administrator,
after investigation shall at any time find both (1) tliat 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 rate for a specified
service within the industry for a limited period is necessary to miti-
gate the conditions constituting such emergency and to effectuate
the purposes of the Act, the Code Autliority may cause an impartial
agency to investigate costs and to recommend to the Administrator a
determination of the stated minimum rate of the services affected by
i\\Q emergency and thereupon the Administrator may proceed to
determine such stated minimum rate.

(b) When the Administrator shall have detennined such stated
minimum rate for a specified .service for a stated period, which rate
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 rate. Thereafter, during such
stated period, no member of the industry shall charge for such
specified services at a net realized rate below said stated minimum
rate and any such charge shall be deemed destructive rate 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.

Section 3. Cost Finding. — The Code Authority shall cause to be
formulated methods of cost finding and accounting capable of use
by all members of the industry, and phall 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 in-
dustry shall utilize such methods to the extent found practicable.
Nothing herein contained shall be construed to permit the Code
Authority, any agent thereof, or any member of the industr}'^ to
suggest uniform addition^, percentages or diiferentials or other uni-
form items of cost which are designed to bring about arbitrary uni-

An application having been duly made pursuant to and in fiiil
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 Processed or Refined Fish Oil Industry,

79269° 1044-45 34 1 (39)

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.
Sir : Thi.s is a report on the Code of Fair Competition for the
Processed or Refined Fish Oil Industry, as revised after the Public
Hearing held in Washington, D.C., on March 17, 1934, in accordance
with the provisions of the National Industrial Recovery Act.

I. DESCRIPTION OF THK INDUSTRY

The industiy covers the refining of fish oil ])y various processes
as outlined in the code, and the selling of the resultant product as
refined or processed fish oil. The improvement in the technical refin-
ing methods during recent years has permitted the use of refined fish
oils in a wider range of products than wa^ formerly the case. A
large, but unknown, quantity of crude fish oil is refined by operators
who use the refined oils in their own further manufacture. Such
operators are not covered by the code as they do not sell the refined
oils as such.

Most of the refined oils produced by this industry are used by
manufacturers of paints and floor coverings. The manufacture of
vitamin tested oils solely for therapeutic purpo.ses is not included
in this industry, but when such oils are sold in competition with
ordinary refined or processed fish oils, the code provisions shall be
applicable thereto. For paint and floor covering uses, the refined
fish oils are in direct competition with linseed, perilla, and other
vegetable drying oils, most of which are of foreign orig'in.

The refineries are generally fairly large and are located either
near the sources of .supply or near the points where their products
are used. Tliere are a number of business organizations which are
brought in part under the provisions of this code due to the fact
that they do some refining or processing of fish oil at the same time
they carry on other operations. In order to maintain fair competi-
tive conditions, it is believed that both the refiners who refine as their
principal business and those who refine incidentally to other opera-
tions should work under the same conditions.

There are about ten distinct business entities in the industry, oper-
ating some tv/enty plants. The value of the refined or processed oil
produced annually is approximately five million dollars, which
roughly equals the invested capital. The employees in the industry
number between 600 and TOO according to reliable estimates.

II. LAPAIR PROVISIONS

The code provisions will result in a considerable reduction in work-
ing hours and should increase employment by some 20 or 25 percent.
Wages in the industry have been high and tliere v»all be but little

(40)

increase in the individual pay as a result of the code provisions.
The wages proposed are up to or above those generally provided in
codes.

III. UNFAIR METHODS OF COMPETITION

The code contains the usual unfair trade practices, including the
new provisions relative to open prices. In addition, the code pro-
vides for the elimination of future contracts containing a guarantee
against price declines, and also makes a provision for the establish-
ment of grades and standards.

IV. ADMINISTRATION

The code attempts to j^rovide for the protection of the large,
medium and small size operators by establishing a code authority
of four members made up in a designated manner to represent each
of these groups, with a fifth member from outside the industry, to
be elected by the four others. Reports of annual production are
required from all members, and these are to be used in classifying
members as large, medium and small size. Assessments for the
expenses of code administration are based on the annual production
of each member.

V. 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 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 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
requred), by increasing the consumption of industrial, fishery, and
agricultural products through increasing purchasing power, by
reducing and relieving unemployment, by improving standards of
lalwr and by otherwise rehabilitating industry.

(b) Said industry normally employs not more than 50.000 em-
ploj-ees; 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 membershi]) tlierein.

(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 iDeen deprived of the right to be heard prior to approval of
said code.

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved this code.
Eespectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Adininistrator,
August 8, 1934.

(48) hours after having filed a revision in price term.s.

(s) Adherence to Filed Prices. — To sell or offer to sell any prod-

as filed in accordance with the provisions of Article VI, Section 1,
paragraph (q), hereof.

(t) Agreement on Prices. — To enter into any agreement, under-

market which it is the purpose of this Article to create.

(u) Destrtoctive Price Cidting. — To engage wilfully in destruc-
tive price cutting. Any member of the industry or of any other
industry or the customers of either may at any time complain to the

as destructive price cutting, imperiling small enterprise or tending
toward monopoly or the impairment of code wages and working
conditions,

(v) Emergency Basis for Prices. — To sell below the stated mini-

adversely affecting small enterprises or wages or labor conditions,
or tending toward monopoly or other acute conditions which tend
to defeat the purpose of the Act; and (b) that the determination of
the stated minimum price for a specified product within the indus-
try for a limited period is necessary to mitigate the conditions con-
stituing such emergency and to etfectuate the purposes of the Act,
the Code Authority 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;

(2) 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 Act, he shall publish
such price. Thereafter, during such stated period, no member of
the industry shall sell such specified products dt a net realized price
belov/ said stated minimum price and any such sale shall be deemed
destructive price cutting; and 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 con-
sideration should be given to costs in the determination of pricing
policies.

(w) Cos/' Fiiidiru/. — To fail to utilize, to the extent found prac-
ticable, the cost finding and accounting methods promulgated pur-
suant to Article VII, Title B, Section 1, paragrapii (r), hereof.
No member of the industry shall suggest uniform additions, per-
centages or differentials or other uniform items of cost which are
designed to bring about arbitrary uniformity of costs or prices.

Article VII — Adjministiiation

TITLE A. CODE AUTHORITY, SELECTION

Section 1. A Code Authority consisting of five (5) voting mem-
bers who are to be elected by the industry shall be established to
administer this code, and to effectuate in the industry the purposes
and policies of the Act. The Administrator may appoint from one
to three nonvoting members of the Code Authority as his representa-
tives, for such periods respectively as he shall designate, to attend
ail meetings of the Code Authority without expense to the industry.
The Code Authority shall be elected immediately upon the approval
of this code at a meeting which may be attended by all members of
the industry, of which meeting due notice shall be given, and at
which each member of the industry shall be entitled to one vote
which may be cast in person, by proxy duly appointed, or by mail.

Section 2. The members of the Code Authority so chosen shall
continue in ofRce until their successors are duly elected and qualified.

Section 3. For the purposes of this Title, members of the industry
shall be classified into three groups in the following manner :

(a) Each member of the industry shall within sixty (60) days
after the effective date of this code and during the first ninety (90)
days of each year thereafter, beginning with January 1, 1935, report
to such accountants (certified, chartered, or other lawful practitioners
of accountancy) as may be selected by the Code Authority the num-
ber of tons of processed or refined fish oil sold by him in the preced-
ing year. Such reports shall be held by said accountants in strict
confidence except as to the Administrator. On the receipt of such
reports, or immediately upon the expiration of the stated period,
said accountants shall determine from the reports received the aver-

age number of tons per member of such products sold during the
preceding year and shall then determine the members who are to be
classified in Group A, being such membei-s who have, as shown by
their respectiA'e reports, sold during the preceding year one hundred
fifty percent (150%) or more of such average number of tons; said
accountants shall also determine the Group B members, being those
who have, according to their respective reports, sold during the pre-
ceding year more than scA'enty-five percent (T5%) but less than one
hundred fifty percent (150%) of such average number of tons; and
said accountants shall aho determine the Group C members, being
those who have, as shown by their respective i-eports, sold during
the preceding year seventy-five percent (75%) or less of such average
number of tons. The determination of such groups by said account-
ants shall be final and conclusive and no person shall have any right
to investigate or check such determination except the Admmistra-
tor, who may do so either on his own initiative or on the com-
plaint of any member of the industry claiming to be injured thereby.

Section 4. Yv^ien and as said classifications have been made by said
accountants, they shall report to the members of the industry the
personnel of the several groups. Within thirty (30) days after the
making of each such report, a meeting of the members of the indus-
try shall be held and notice thereof shall be given by the Code
Authority specifying the time and place of each meeting. At such
meeting Group A membei's shall as a class, be entitled, to elect two
of the five (5) voting members of the Code Authority; Group B
shall be entitled, as a class, to elect one (1) of the voting members
of the Code Authorit}^; and Group C members sliall be entitled, as
a class, to elect the remaining voting member of the Code Authority.
The four members of the Code Authority so chosen shall select the
fifth voting member, who shall not be a member of the industry or
an employee, partner, or officer thereof. A voting member of the
Code Authority may, but need not, be associated with a member of
the industr3^ but no two (2) members of the Code Authority shall
be directly associated with the same member of the industry or any
of his subsidiaries or affiliates.

Section 5. If any vacancy shall occur in the membership of the
Code Authority by reason of rejection or disapproval of any member
by the Administrator, or by resignation or death, or for any other
reason, the remaining members of the Code Authorit3^ except those
appointed by tlie Administrator, may, by a majority vote of their
number, appoint a member to the Code Authority for the unexpired
term, subject however to the approval of such appointment by the
Administrator. In filling such vacancies, the representation of the
respective groups; viz, A. B, and C, provided for in Section 4 of this
Article shall be maintained.

Section G. The vote in person, by proxy, or by mail of a majority
of the members of the industry classified in any of said groups shall
be necessary for the election of the members of the Code Authority
to be chosen by that group.

Section 7. If the business of any two or more members of the in-
dustry is so combined, whether because of relationship as subsidiary,
affiliate or otherwise, as to constitute, in the opinioji of the Code
Authority, one unified enterprise for practical purposes; then, such

members so combined shall have one vote at meetino:s of the mem-
bers of the industry and shall, in classifyin(>; such members into
Groups A, B, and 0, be treated as though constituting one member
of the industry.

Section 8. Each trade or industrial association directly or indi-
rectly participating in the selection or activities of the Code Author-
ity shall (1) impose no inequitable restrictions on membership, and
(2) submit to the Administrator true copies of its articles of associa-
tion, by-laws, regulations, and all amendments thereto as made, to-
gether with such other information as to membership, organization,
and activities as the Administrator may deem necessary to eil'ectuate
the purposes of the x\ct.

Section 9. In order that the Code Authority shall at ail times
be truly representative of the industry and in other respects comply
with the provisions of the Act, the Administrator may prescribe
such hearings as he may deem proper; and tliereafter if he shall find
that the Code Authority is not truly repiesentative or does not in
other respects compl}' with the provisions of the Act, may require
an appropriate modification in the method of selection of the Code
Authority.

Section 10. Nothing contained in this code shall constitute the
members of the Code Authority partners for any purpose. Nor
shall any member of the Code Authority be liable in any manner to
anyone for any act of any other member, oiHcer, agent or 'employee
of the Code Authority. Nor shall any mem.ber of the Code Au-
thority, exercising reasonable diligence in the conduct of his duties
hereunder, be liable to anyone for any action or omission to act
under this code, except for his ov>'n wilful malfeasance or non-
feasance.

(a) To insure the observance of the provisions of this code, and
the compliance of the industry with the provisions of the Act. Any
charge of a specific alleged violation coming to the knowledge of a
member of the industry shall be submitted to the Code Authority
in a written statement, specifying such alleged violation and con-
taining substantiating evidence thereof. If the member submitting
such charge recjuests that his action in so doing be kept in confidence,
the Code Authority shall make every effort to do so, provided that
such action on its part shall not hinder or obstruct the ensuing
investigation and the enforcement of this code against the member
charged.

(b) To investigate any charge aforesaid and any other specific
charges or information relating to violations of the code which shall
come to its knowledge from any source which it deems reliable. The
Code Authority may investigate such matters by calling upon any
member of the industry, including the one whose actions are under

investigation; and may secure from any member of the industry a
statement with re^-pect to any alleged violation.

(c) To receive complaints' from any member of the industry or of
any other industry or the customers of either at any time that any
filed price constitutes unfair competition as destructive price cutting,

pairment of code wages and working conditions.

(d) To adopt by-laws and rules and regulations for its procedure.

(e) To obtain from members of the industry such information and
reports as are required for the administration of this code. In addi-
tion to information required to be submitted to the Code Authority,
members of the industry shall furnish such statistical information as
the Administrator may deem necessary for the purposes recited in
Section 3 (a) of the Act to such Administrative and/or government
agencies as the Administrator may designate: Provided h-owever,
that nothing in this code shall relieve any member of the industry
of any existing obligation to furnish reports to any government
agency. No individual reports shall be disclosed to any other mem-
ber of the industry or any other party, except to such government
agencies as may be directed by the Administrator.

(f ) To use s-uch other agencies as it deems proper for the cariying

this code; and such agencies shall at all times be subject to and com-
ply with the provisions hereof.

(g) To make recommendations to the Administrator for the co-
ordination of the administration of this code with such other codes,

classify the product in accordance with said specifications and stand-
ards when and as the Code Authority shall so establish same; and
shall comply with the requirements set forth in paragraph (1) of this
Section and such other regulations as the Administrator may approve
in this connection.

(i) If any member of the industr}^ shall have established or shall
desire to establish a special trade name for any particular type or
grade of oil sold by him which has a peculiar quality or property,
distinct in any wa}^ from any of the established grades, he may
market such oil under said special trade name or as a separate or
distinct grade, but, in so doing, shall not make any unfounded or
misleading statements or claims concerning the properties, charac-
teristics, or capabilities of such branded oil or special grade. Any
member of the industry who now markets or hereafter proposes to
market any such special type of oil shall i-eport the fact to the Code

Authority, tofjether with a statement of the peculiar properties
claimed therefor, and if the Code Authority shall find that such
special oil has no peculiar qualities or capabilities to distinguish it
from one of the standard grades established by the Code Authority,
such member shall not make any statements or claims to the contrary
and shall in filing the schedules required of him under paragraph
(q), Section 1 of Article VI, hereof, classify said oil in accordance
witli the standard grade to which it belongs but may continue to sell
the oil under the trade name or brand.

carload lot; (2) whether or not such price includes any transporta-
tion, handling, or similar charge to be paid by the seller; (3) any
quantity or other discounts which will be permitted from any of the
sales prices set forth in said schedule, and the amount or extent
thereof; (4) the period or periods within which deliveries will be

agent shall by telegraph or other equally ])rompt means notify said
member of the time of such receipt. Such lists and revisions,
together with the effective time thereof, shall upon receipt be imme-
diately and simultaneously distributed to all members of the industry
and to all their customers who have applied therefor and have
offered to defray the cost actually incurred by the Code Authority
in the preparation and distribution thereof and be avpiilable for
inspection by any of their customers at the office of such agent. Said
lists or revisions or any part thereof shall not be made available to
any person until released to all members of the industry and their

TITLE C. EXPEXSES

Section 1. The Code Authority shall, prior to the meeting of the
members of the industry in each year, fix an estimate or budget of
its probable financial needs for the administration of this code for
the ensuing year, and shall submit the same to such meeting for
approval. Unless the budget is revised by such meeting (and it
shall have that power) the same as determined by the Ccxie Au-
thority shall become effective immediately after its approval by the
Administrator. When the budget has been so determined and ap-
proved, the Code Authority shall empower the account^ants selected
by the Code Authority imder the provisions of Title A, Section 3,
paragraph (a) of this Article, to apportion the expenses therein set
forth among the members of the industry, using for this purpose the
ratio of the annual sales of each member of the industry to the total
sales of the industry for the preceding year; and after the basis of
contribution has been approved by the Administrator shall empower
them to collect the same. Such apportionment and collection of
expenses among the members of the industry shall be held by such
accountants in strict confidence except as to the Administrator.

Such accountants may be subjected to adequate bond before assuming
any function under tlie provisions of this Title.

Section 2. If the Code Authority shall at any time deem that ex-
traordinary expenses should be incurred by it in the performance of
its function-s hereundei", it shall thereupon estimate the amount
thereof and .submit the same to a meeting of the members of the in-
dustry for approval, revision or rejection. The notice of tiny such,
meeting shall specify the purpose thereof, and the nature and amount
of the requested appropriation. If such meeting is so called and
shall, either for a lack of quorum or otherwise, fail to revise or re-
ject the request of the Code Authority, the acticm of the Code Au-
thority shall then l)e final and conclusive as to memljers of the
industry. Such proposed extraordinary budget shall be subject to
the approval of the Administrator in any event. Assessments on the
members of the industry shall then be apportioned by said account-
ants on the same basis as specified in Section 1 of this Title, and,
after the basis of contribution has been approved by the Adminis-
trator, collected in like manner.

Section 3. Any funds remaining on hand, upon tlie termination
of this code or at the discretion of the Code Authority, shall, after
the liabilities of the Code Authority have been paid, be prorate»d
and returned to the members of the industry by said accountants
in accordance with such recognized principles of accountancy as will
allow due consideration to their respective contributions to such
balance.

Section 1. Xo provision of this code shall be so applied as to
permit monopolies or monopolistic practices, or to eliminate, oppress,

CODE OF FAIR COMPETITION

FOR THE

MANUFACTURING AND WHOLESALE SURGICAL

INDUSTRY

As Approved on August 9, 1934

ORDER

Code of Fair Competition for the Mantjfacturing and Wholesale

Surgical 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 Manufacturing and Wholesale Surgical
Industry, and hearing having been duly held thereon 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 Industrial Recovery.

Approval recommended :
Geo. L. Berry,

Division Administrator.

Washington, D.C,

August 9, 193J,..

79563° 1044-51 34 (57)

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.
Sir : This is a report on the Code of Fair Competition for the
Manufacturing and Wholesale Surgical Industry, the hearing hav-
ing been conducted in Washington on the 27th day of November,
1933, in accordance with the provisions of Title I of the National
Industrial Recovery Act.

INDUSTRY BACKGROUND

The Manufacturing and "Wholesale Surgical Industry had a re-
duction in employment between June, 1929 and October, 1933 of
about twenty-one (21%) percent. Employment increased about
sixteen (16%) percent between June, 1933 and October, 1933, while
the average hours worked per week decreased about ten (10%)
percent in that same period. Average hours worked per week in
October, 1933 were 36.3. The minimum wage rates in this Industry
were somewhat higher in October, 1933 than in June, 1929. The
minimum rates as provided in this Code will provide weekly earnings
higher than the lowest wage rate in 1929.

The Office of the Surgeon General of the War Department has
advised me that this Industry should receive sympathetic consider-
ation, for the reason that this Industry is an important factor in
their National Defense plans.

HOURS AND WAGES

The Code provides a standard work week of forty (40) hours,
exceptions being made as follows :

Skilled mechanical artisans are permitted to work more than
forty (40) hours in any one week, provided that in cases where
no such additional labor is available they shall be allowed to work
forty-four (44) hours in any one week or nine (9) hours in any
one day ; provided, however, that one and one-half times the normal
rate or pay shall be paid each employee for all time worked in
excess of the standard week. Emergency maintenance and emer-
gency repair work employees may work in excess of the standard
week providing they are paid time and one-half for their work in
excess of forty (40) hours per week. Surgical appliance fitters
may be permitted to work in excess of forty (40) hours in any one
week provided that each employee is paid one and one-half times
his normal rate of pay for work in excess of the standard week.
Managerial, executive and supervisory employees who are paid more
than Thirty-five ($35.00) Dollars per week are exempted from the
maximum hour provisions. In the event of emergencies due to
epidemics or catastrophes wherein the public health is threatened

(58)

the provisions regarding maximum hours of employment shall be
temporarily suspended during such emergency.

The Code provides for a minimum wage rate of 37i/^0 per hour
for males and 321/20 per hour for females with the following ex-
ceptions being made :

Office boys or messengers between the ages of 16 and 18 may be
paid not less than $12.80 per week. This type of employee, how-
ever, being restricted to 5% of the total number of employees in
any one establishment. A person whose earning capacity is limited
because of physical or mental handicap may be employed on light
work at a wage below the minimum established by tlie Code.

ECONOMIC EFFECT OF THE CODE

In the Manufacturing and Wholesale Surgical Industry there
is practically no unemployment and consequently the shorter hour
provisions as established by this Code will not, in the final analysis,
increase employment to any great extent. It is estimated, however,
that with the standard forty (40) hour week there will be a slight
increase in wage-earner employment. The Code establishes a mini-
mum rate which is in excess of the average rate paid in June, 1929
and, from this point of view, will tend to effectuate the purposes
of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery Act.

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:

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, includ-
ing 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 manage-
ment under adequate governmental sanctions 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 tem-
porarily 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 and Trade normally employs not more than
50,000 employees; 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, includmg without limita-
tion Subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of Section 7, and
Subsection (c) of Section 10 thereof; and that the applicant associa-
tion 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 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.

Members of this Industry have cooperated in a most satisfactory
manner with the Administrator in the preparation of this Code.

From evidence adduced during this hearing and from recom-
mendations and reports of the various Advisory Boards it is be-
lieved that this Code as now proposed and revised represents an
effective, practical, equitable solution for this Industry and for
these reasons this Code has been approved.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

A dministrator.
August 9, 1934.

bribery as hereinabove defined.

Section 2. No member of the Industry shall allow secret rebates,
refunds, commissions, credits, or unearned discounts, whether in
the form of money or otherwise or extend to certain purchasers
special services, prices, nor shall a member extend special privileges

wholly or in part, of the transaction covered thereby.

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 increases in the seller's cost.

CODE OF FAIR COMPETITION

FOR THE

UPWARD-ACTING DOOR INDUSTRY

As Approved on August 11, 1934

ORDER

Approving Code of Fair Competition for the Upward- AcmNo

Door 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 the Code
of Fair Competition for the Upward-Acting Door Industry, and
hearings having been duly held thereon and the annexed report on
said Code, containing findings with respect thereto, having been
made and directed to the President:

Hugh S. Johnson,
Adminhtmtor for Industrial Recovery.

Approval recommended:
Barton W. Murray,

Division Aatninistrator.

Washington, D.C,

August 11, 1934.

79940° 1044-58 34 1 (71)

EEPOKT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.
Sir: This is a report on the Code of Fair Competition for the
ITpward-Actino; Door Industry, as revised after a public hearing
conducted in Washington, D.C., on August 1, 1934, in accordance
with the provisions of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery
Act.

PROVISIONS AS TO HOURS AND V^AGES

Employees are not permitted to work more than thirty-six hours
per week or eight hours per day, except as otherwise provided. Em-
ployees are not permitted to work more than five days out of any
seven, except as otherwise provided.

Hourly limitations do not apply to traveling salesmen ; or to man-
agers, executives or supervisors who receive thirty-five dollars or
more per week. Hourly limitations do not apply to employees en-
gaged in emergency work involving breakdowns or the protection
of life or property, provided one and one-half times the normal rate
is paid for hours worked in excess of thirty-six per week or eight
per day.

To meet peak production periods, plant and factory employees are
permitted to work forty-eight hours per week during twelve weeks
in each calendar year, provided one and one-half times the normal
rate is paid for hours worked in excess of forty per week or eight
per day. Watchmen are not permitted to work more than fifty-six
hours per week.

The minimum hourly rate of pay for male employees, except office
and sales employees, shall be forty cents per hour. Female em-
ployees performing substantially the same work as male employees
shall receive the same pay as male employees. Office, ser^dce or sales
employees shall receive a minimum rate of fifteen dollars per week.

A minimum rate of pay is established, regardless of whether an
employee is compensated on a time rate, piece work, or other basis.
Compensation of employees receiving more than the minimum shall
be equitably adjusted and reported to the Code Authority but in
no event shall rates of pay be reduced. No person under sixteen
years of age shall be employed in the Industry nor any person under
eighteen years of age in hazardous occupations or those detrimental
to health.

ECONOMIC EFFECTS OF THE CODE

This is a new Industry. In 1928 there were only three firms in
this field ; there are now twenty concerns. Employment has dropped
from the high point of 1929 and 1930, when there were 3,000 em-
l^loyees, to 2,000 in 1933. Decreased volume of construction for the
past four years has been felt by this Industry, even though sales
reached a high point in 1933. Sales per company showed a very
considerable decrease.

(72)

Practically all the members of this Industry and its several divi-
sions accepted the President's Reemployment Agreement. This
Agre<?ment actually affected only a small increase in employment
because of decreased volume of business. Wages generally in the
Industry were above thoee prescribed by the President's Reemploy-
ment Agreement.

Under the Code some small increase in employment is expected
as a result of the thirty-six hour week. This increase will be marked
as the volume of construction increases.

It is expected that Price and Trade Practice Provisions of the
Code will go far to correct many of the disturbing elements of the
Industi-y and will react favorably to stabilization of employment.

FINDINGS

The Assistant Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on
said Code, having 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
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 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 a^icul-
tural products through increasing purchasing power, by reducing
and relieving unemplo5"ment, 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 of 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) 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, the Code has been approved.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Adinmistrator.
August 11, 1934.

open market which it is the j)iirpose of this Article to create.

Article VIII — Cost and Price Cutting

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 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 Code Authority that any filed price constitutes unfair compe-
tition as destructive price cutting, imperiling small enterprise or
tending toward monopol}^ or the impairment of code wages and
working conditions. The 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 N.K.A. who shall render a report and
recommendation thereon to the Administrator.

(c) When an emergency exists as to any given product, 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 to
mitigate the conditions constituting such emergency and to effectu-
ate the purposes of the Act, the Code Authority may cause an im-
partial agency to investigate costs and to recommend to the Admin-
istrator a determination of the stated minimum price of the product
affected by the emergency and thereupon the Administrator may pro-
ceed 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 reconsider-
ation or the Administrator may cause any determinations hereunder
to be reviewed or reconsidered and appropriate action taken.

79941° 1044-59 34 ^1 (§7)

KEPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir: This is a report on the Hearing of the Code of Fair Com-
petition for the Pretzel Industry.

This hearing was held in the Ambassador Hotel, Washington,
D.C., on February 20, 1934, under the jurisdiction of the National
Recovery Administration.

GENERAL

The Pretzel Industry includes about 150 manufacturers which
taken together total less than 1% (0.54%) of the value of all bakery
products. The product is not a necessity, but is classed as an inex-
])ensive semi-luxury, and does not replace any other food. The
Pretzel Industry grew up from a family enterprise with low wages,
long hours, and no problem of unemployment even during the de-
pression. It is difficult to forecast the spread of employment. If
the vohime of business is maintained as of June, 1933, there would
be an increase of about 487 employees, or 12.9%. Wages have been
very low in this Industry. Under the present code about 50% of
the employees will benefit ; in the case of women alone approximately
84% will receive increased wages. The average increase in the
hourly rate for these employees will be about 36% and in weekly
wages about 14.3%. The resulting additional volume of wages are
estimated at $369,594.00 or about 12.9% of an estimated total volume,
in June, 1933, of $2,861,200.68. The increase in the volume of wage
payments resulting from the spread of emplovment is estimated at
$358,283.00, or about 12.5%, of an estimated total volume in 1933 of
$2,861,200.68. The additional volume of wages from both increased
wages and spreading of employment is estimated at $727,877.00, or
about 25.4%. The Industry claims 5,000 employees, but a later
estimate would place employment at about 4,000.

There are two methods of manufacture, the small units which
twist the pretzel by hand and the larger mechanized units cutting
pretzels by machinery.

The Pretzel Industry claims, because of increased cost of brrsic
materials, which includes a processing tax on flour of $1.38 per
barrel, and certain restrictions and prohibition of the free distri-
bution of food, any material increase in overhead at this time will be
a serious menace, possibly putting the small manufacturer out of
business.

The National Pretzel Manufacturers' Association sponsor of this
Code, is a trade association, truly representative of the Industry,
and imposes no inequitable restrictions on membership.

(88)

HOUR AND WAGE PROVISIONS

The Code of the Pretzel Industry proposes a maximum work week
of 40 hours with a limitation of 8 hours per day and 6 days in any 7
day period. There are the usual exemptions, complete or partial, in
the case of executive, managerial, and solicitors. Delivery salesmen
are exempted from hours if paid a salarv of $22.00 per week aver-
aged over a four weeks' period. Truck drivers may work 48 hours
per week and watchmen may work 56 hours per week. In case of
peak periods not to aggregate more than 10 Aveeks in any one year
emploj^ees may be permitted to work 48 hours per week. In case of
emergency repair or maintenance work employees may work un-
limited hours, provided they are paid at least one and one-third for
overtime. The minimum wages are set at 400 per hour for machine
operators and oven men, 321/0^ per hour for all other male employees,
and 300 per hour for female employees. Inexperienced twisters may
be paid 831/^ of the minimum rate provided for females, not to ex-
ceed 10% of total employed for this type of work and not to exceed
160 Avorking hours. Office employees are under a minimum of
population, starting at $16.00 per week for cities of over 500,000
population.

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 floAV of interstate and foreign
commerce which t-end 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 management
under adequate gOA'ernmental sanctions and supervision, by eliminat-
ing unfair competitive practices, by promoting the fullest possible
utilization of the present productive capacity oi industries, by avoid-
ing undue restriction of production (except as may be temporarily
required), and by increasing the consumption of industrial and agri-
cultural products through increasing purchasing power, by reducing
and relieAdng 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 National Pretzel
Manufacturers' Association is an industrial association truly repre-
sentati\^e of the aforesaid Industry; and that said association im-
poses 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 the above reasons, this Code has been approved.
Respectfully,

REPOKT TO THE PRESIDENT

Tlie PUESIDENT,

The White House.
Sir: A Public Hearing on the Code of Fair Competition for the
Animal Glue Industry, submitted by the National Association of
Glue Manufacturers, Inc., was conducted in Washington on the 4th
of April, 1934, in accordance with the provisions of the National
Industrial Recovery Act. This Association claims to represent
ninety-nine (99%) per cent of the Industry by volume of business.

THE INDUSTRY

The Animal Glue Industry includes the manufacture of glues
made from materials of animal origin other than casein. The In-
dustry is divided into the Hide Glue and Bone Glue Divisions, each
using a different manufacturing process and competing in market-
ing problems in few instances. There are about twenty-five concerns
in the Industry. Some of the concerns are independent, some are
connected with the meat packing or the leather industries. It is
estimated that approximately three thousand persons, including sales
and office employees, were engaged in the Animal Glue Industry dur-
ing its busy season of 1929. Annual sales were estimated as about
$20,000,000 in 1928. Sales decreased sharply between 1928 and 1932,
but began to improve during early 1933 and increased in the second
half of 1933 to nearly 80% of the 1929 dollar volume.

PROVISIONS OF THE CODE AS TO WAGES AND HOURS

The Code specifies, with certain exceptions, that no employee
shall be permitted to work in excess of an average of forty hours
per week in any six months' period, nor in excess of forty-eight hours
in any one calendar week. Provision is made for payment of time
and one-third for all hours worked in excess of eight in any one day
or in excess of forty in any one calendar week.

There are excepted from the basic work week employees who re-
ceive thirty-five dollars or more per week and who are employed in a
technical or professional capacity but not including skilled operating
personnel; employees in a managerial, supervisory or executive
capacity; supervisors or highly skilled workers in continuous proc-
esses where restriction of hours would unavoidably reduce produc-
tion; outside salesmen. Employees engaged in emergency mainte-
nance and emergency repair work shall receive payment of time and
one-third for all hours worked in excess of forty in any one week or
eight hours in any day. Watchmen have a maximum work week of
fifty-six hours, however, they are not permitted to work more than
six days in any seven day period.

(103)

104

Accounting; clerical, office, store, shipping service or inside sales
employees are not permitted to work in excess of an average of forty
hours per week in any three months' period nor in excess of eight
hours per day nor forty-eight hours in any one calendar week. Em-
ployees on automotive or horse drawn passenger service shall not be
permitted to work in excess of an average of forty-six hours per
week in any three months' period, nor in excess of nine hours in any
one day nor forty-eight hours in any calendar week.

The Code provides for a minimum wage of forty (40^) cents per
hour ; except emploj'^ees engaged in light or nonhazardous work, such
as wrapping, packaging and labeling who shall not be paid less than
at the rate of thirty-five (35^) cents per hour; employees on account-
ing, clerical, office, store, shipping service or inside employees and
employees on automotive or horse-drawn passenger express, delivery
or freight service who shall not be paid less than fifteen ($15.00)
dollars per week in any city of over 500,000 population or in the
immediate trade area thereof or fourteen ($14.00) dollars per week
in any other part of the United States; messengers, junior clerks
and others doing a junior grade of office or clerical work, who shall
not exceed five (5%) per cent of total number of employees, who
shall receive not less than twelve ($12.00) dollars per Aveek.

The Code provides that a minimum rate of pay shall apply irre-
spective of whether an employee is actually compensated on a time
rate, piece work or other basis.

The Code further provides that no i^erson under sixteen (16) years
of age shall be employed in the Industry, and that no person under
eighteen (18) years of age shall be employed in a hazardous occupation.

ECONOMIC EFFECTS OF THE CODE

It has been reported that in 1929 the Industry employed 3000 per-
sons, and had annual sales of about $20,000,000 in 1928. In 1933 the
Industry reported but 1500 employees, however, in April 1934 it is
estimated that 3000 persons were employed and in the last half of
1933 the sales volume was 80% of that in 1929.

The minimum wage of forty cents per hour is about equal to that
of 1929 and considerably above that paid in the Industry before the
adoption of the President's Keemployment Agreement.

The Code provisions will reduce the average hours per week by
twenty-eight per cent from the 1929 peak.

Since most of the firms are now operating under the Code provi-
sions only a relatively small further increase in employment can be
exi>ected,^ but it is estimated that an increase in ])ayrolls will amount
to about ten per cent above the figure for April 1934.

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 of 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

105

removal of obstructions to the free flow of inter-state 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 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 tem-
porarily 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 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, this Code of Fair Competition for the Animal
Glue Industry has been approved.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Administrator,
August 23, 1934.

REPOKT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir: The public hearing on the Code of Fair Competition for
the Blackboard and Blackboard Eraser Manufacturing Industry of
the United States, submitted by the National School Supply Asso-
ciation, 176 West Adams Street, Chicago, Illinois, was conducted
in Washington, D.C. on the 25th day of April, 1934, in accordance
with the provisions of the National Industrial Recovery Act. The
Association claims to represent 90 percent, by volume, of the
Industry.

The hours established under the Code are 40 per week, with the
exception of one period, not to exceed 12 weeks in any calendar year,
during which period employees may be permitted to work 48 hours
per week, provided they are paid at least one and one-half times
the normal rate of pay for all hours worked in excess of 40 per
week.

Exceptions are allowed for watclimen, who may be employed 56
hours per week, and for traveling salesmen, executives, administra-
tive and/or supervisory employees who receive $35.00 or more per
week.

The minimum wages established under this Code are 40 cents per
hour for males and 35 cents per hour for females. Office employees
shall receive a minimum of $15.00 per week. Protection of emploj^ees
on piecework performance is guaranteed.

Exceptions to the minimum wages are allowed to office boys and
office girls under eighteen years of age, who shall receive at least
80% of the minimum wage. The number of such employees is lim-
ited to five percent of the total number of office employees. Excep-
tions are also allowed to handicapped persons whose earning capacity
is limited, provided the employer obtains a certificate authorizing
such employment from the State authority designated by the United
States Department of Labor.

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 :

(118)

119

ble utilization of the present productive capacity of industries, by
avoiding undue restriction of production (except as ma}'' be tem-
porarily 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 clasified 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 asso-
ciation is a trade association truly representative of the aforesaid
Industi*y; 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.

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

Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Administrator.
August 23, 1934.

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 increases in the seller's costs.

Article XII — Effective Date

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

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.
Sir: This is a report on the Code of Fair Competition for the
Electric and Neon Sign Industry, the hearing having been conducted
thereon in Washington, D.C., April 23, 1934, in accordance with the
provisions of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery Act.

PROVISIONS OF THIS CODE AS TO AVAGES AND HOURS

Maximum hours for employees are established as folloAvs: All em-
ployees, except outside salesmen or empIo3^ees engaged in emergency
maintenance or emergency repair work or persons employed in a
managerial or executive capacity who are paid at the rate of $35.00
or more per week, — forty hours in any one week, or eight hours in
any twenty four hour period beginning at midnight; Avatchman —
fifty four hours per week; all employees — six days in any seven day
period. Employees engaged in emergency maintenance and emer-
gency repair work shall be paid at not less than one and one-half
times their normal hourly rate for all hours in excess of eight hours
per day and forty hours per week.

Minimum wages for employees are established as follows : All em-
ployees, except skilled employees — $16.00 per week of forty hours,
and part time emploj^ees working less than forty hours per week —
45 cents per hour ; skilled employees — 75 cents per hour. No hourly,
daily or full time weekly compensation for employees who are paid
less than $50.00 per week shall be less than such compensation exist-
ing as of June IG, 1933, and no employee shall be paid a wage rate
which will yield a less wage to the shorter full time week "herein
established than he could have earned for the same class of work
for the full time week existing as of June 16, 1933. Wage increases
established under the President's Reemployment Agreement shall
at least be maintained. Female employees performing substantially
the same work as male employees shall receive the same rates as
male employees.

Employment of any person under IG years of age and anyone under
18 years of age at occupations hazardous in nature or dangerous to
health is prohibited.

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

The right of employees to organize and bargain collectivelv
\hrough representatives of their own choosing is recognized. No eni-
ployee shall be required as a condition of employment to join any
company union, or refrain from joining, organizing, or assisting a
labor organization of his own choosing.

(132)

133

No employee who has been reguhirly emph)yed in any one estab-
lishment of this In(histry for eight weeks or more shall be discharged
on less than one week's notice, and no employee shall be dismissed or
demoted by reason of making a complaint or giving evidence with
respect to an alleged violation of this Code.

EC0N03IIC EFFECTS OF THE CODE

The Electric and Xeon Sign Industry ranks among those indus-
tries expei'icncing the greatest loss of business due to the depression,
the annual sales of the Industry falling from an estimated eighty
million dollars in 1928 to an estimated thirty-eight million dollars
in 1932, a decline of 53'" .t from the 1928-1929 peak; and employment
declining from 18,000 in 1928 to 13,000 in 1932, a decrease of 29%.
The total estimated number of concerns, however, increased from
1,000 in 1928 to 1,500 in 1932 and 1933, an increase of 50% while
the invested capital decreased during the same period from thirty
million dollars to twenty-five million dollars, a decrease of 17%.

It is believed that the provisions of the Code permit adequate
control and at the same time insure development and sound
expansion.

FINDINGS

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

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 com-
merce 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 supervision, by elim-
inating unfair competitive practices, by promoting the fullest pos-
sible utilization of the present productive capacity of industries, by
avoiding imdue restriction of production (except as may be tem-
porarily 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
employees ; 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, inclucling 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 Industiy; 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.

134

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

(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, I have approved this Code.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Administrator.
August 24. 1934.

Article VII — Costs and Pijice Cutting — Cost Finding and

Accounting

Section 1. (a) Wilfully destructive price cutting is an unfair
method of competition and is forbidden. Any member of the Indus-
try or of any other industry or the customers of either may at any
time complain to the Code Authority that any filed price consti-
tutes unfair competition as destructive price cutting, imperiling small
enterprise or tending toward monopoly or the impairment of code
wages and working conditions. The Code Authority shall within
6 days afford an opportunity to the member filing the price to
answer such complaint and shall within 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 refeiTed to the Research
and Planning Division of NKA which shall render a report and
recommendation thereon to the Administrator.

(b) When no declared emergency exists as to any given product
or service, 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 or service,
sale below the stated minimum price of such product or service, in
violation of Section 2 hereof, is forbidden.

Section 2. (a) If the Administrator, after investigation shall at
any time find both (1) that an emergency has arisen within the In-
dustry adversely affecting small enterprises or wages or labor con-
ditions, or tending toward monopoly or other acute conditions which
tend to defeat the purposes of the Act; and (2) that the determina-
tion of the stated minimum price for a specified product or service
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
investigate costs and to recommend to the Administrator a determina-
tion of the stated minimum price of the product or service affected

143

by the emergency and thereupon the Administrator may proceed
to determine such stated minimum price.

(b) When the Administrator shall have determined such stated
minimum price for a specified product or service 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 j^eriod, no member of the Industry shall sell such
specified products or services 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 deter-

EEPORT TO THE PEESIDENT

The President,

The White House.
Sir : This is a report on the Code of Fair Competition for the Sur-
gical Distributors Trade, the hearing having been conducted in
Washington on the 27th day of November, 1933, in accordance with
the provisions of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery Act.

GENERAL STATEMENT

The Surgical Distributing Trade is a widespread Trade with
retail establishments or agencies in most of even the relatively small
cities. In 1929, there were five hundred and seventy-four (574)
retail establishments which had net sales of over thirty-one million
($31,000,000,00) dollars. The number of distribution wage earners
was the same in the first half of 1932 as in 1929, which was approxi-
mately three thousand. Since June, 1932, reduction in net sales have
been accompanied by reduction in distribution employment so that
in the first half of 1933 net sales per distribution wage earner was
about forty per cent below those of 1929.

HOURS AND WAGES

The Wage Hour provisions of this Code are the same elective pro-
visions regarding wages, work hours and store hours, that are in-
cluded in the Approved Code for the General Retail Trade.

ECONOMIC EFFECT OF THE CODE

There will probably be very little increase in employment in this
trade as a result of the Code because the majority of the establish-
ments now covered by this Code were operating under the General
Retail Trade Code.

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:

(150)

151

ment under adequate governmental sanctions and supervision, by
eliminating unfair competitive practices, by promoting the fullest
possible utilization of the present productive capacity of industries,
by avoiding undue restrictions of production (except as may be tem-
porarily 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 Trade normally employs not more than fifty thousand
employees; and is not classified by me as a major Trade.

(c) The 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 (c) of Section 10 thereof; and that the applicant
association is a trade association truly representative of the afore-
said Trade; 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 this Code has been approved.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

AdTninistrator,
August 24, 1934.

No provision of this Code shall be so applied as to permit monopo-
lies or monopolistic practices, or to eliminate, oppress, or discriminate

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

trial Recovery Act, approved June 16, 1933, for approval of a Code
of Fair Competition for the Industry of Wholesaling Plumbing

President, including Executive Order No. 6543-A, dated December
80, 1933, and otherwise; do hereby incorporate by reference said

Hugh S. Johnson,
Adininistrator for iTidustrial Recovery.

Approval recommended :
Barton W. Murray,

Division Administrator.

Washington, D.C,

August 25, 1934,.

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.
Sir: This is a report on the Code of Fair Competition for the
Industry of Wholesaling Plumbing Products, Heating Products,
and/or Distributing Pipe, Fittings and Valves, a public hearing hav-
ing been conducted thereon in Washington, D.C., October 3, 1933, in
accordance with the provisions of Title I of the National Industrial
Recovery Act.

GENERAL STATEMENT

The proponents of the Code show representation for 1,011 firms
in ten (10) regional associations out of approximately 1,350 firms in
the Industry. In 1932 the volume of business amounted to approxi-
mately $324,000,000 of which the sponsoring members handled about
$259,000,000, or 83 percent of the volume of sales.

HOURS AND WAGES

The Code for this Industry provides for a maximum work week of
forty (40 ) hours with a limitation of eight (8) hours per day and
six (6) days in each seven (7) day period. Exceptions are allowed
in the cases of executives, and to persons in a managerial capacity
who regularly receive not less than thirty-five (35) dollars per week
and to outside Salesmen. Employees engaged as Watchmen may be
permitted to work fifty-six (56) hours per week. The minimum rates
of pay per week of forty (40) hours shall be in the North not less
than $15.00 per week in cities over 500,000 population. $14.50 per
week in Cities of 250,000 to 500,000 and $14.00 per week in any other
place. In the South the rates shall be $1.00 per week lower than the
minimum rates set for the North.

ECONOMIC EFFECT OF THE CODE

Prior to June 16, 1933, this industry worked on an average of
fifty-five (55) hours per week. The adoption of a forty (40) hour
standard work week in this industry represents a reduction in
weekly hours of thirty-four (34) percent of the man hours in this
industry. This reduction in basic hours will provide re-employ-
ment for 6,375 workers or about sixty-one (61) percent of the unem-
ployed workers in this industry. The minimum rates of wages
established in the Code represent the same weekly pay envelopes for
employees for a forty (40) hour week as they formerly received for
a fifty-five (55) hour week in 1933.

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 ;

(1C5)

166

I find that :

(a) Said Code is well designed to promote tlie policies and pur-
poses of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery Act, including
removal of obstructions to the free flow of inter-state and foreign
commerce Avhich 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 management
under adequate governmental sanctions and supervision, by eliminat-
ing unfair competitive practice, by promoting the fullest possible
utilization of the present production 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 joroducts 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 v^^ith 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 group
is an industrial group truly representative of the aforesaid Indus-
try; and that said group imj)oses no inequitable restrictions on ad-
mission 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 Wholesaling Plumbing Products, Heating Products, and/or Dis-
tributing Pipe, Fittings and Valves has been approved.

A dininistrator.

petition and is forbidden. Anj^ 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 filed price constitutes unfair compe-
tition as destructive price cutting, imperiling small enterprises or
tending toward monopoly or the impairment of code wages and
working conditions. The 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 National Recovery Administration which
shall render a report and recommendation thereon to the Ad-
ministrator.

180

(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 considera-
tion should be given to costs in the determination of pricing policies.

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

Section 8 (Emergency Provisions). — (a) If the Administrator,
after investigation, shall at any time find both (1) that an emer-
gency has arisen within the Industry adversely affecting small en-
terprises 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 specified product within the Industry for a limited period is nec-
essary to mitigate 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 Ad-
ministrator a determination of the stated minimum price of the prod-
uct affected by the emergency and thereupon the Administrator 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 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 reconsideration
or the Administrator may cause any determinations hereunder to be
reviewed or reconsidered and appropriate action taken.

Article IX — Modification

This Code and all the provisions thereof are expressly made sub-
ject to the right of the President, in accordance with the provisions
of sub-section (b) of Section 10 of the National Industrial Recovery
Act, from time to time to cancel or modify any order, approval,
license, rule or regulation issued under Title I of said Act and
specifically, but without limitation, to the right of the President to
cancel or modify his approval hereof.

Article X — Monopolies

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

Article XI — Effective Date

This Code shall become effective on the tenth day after its ap-
proval by the President.

chinery where the new machinery will have greater productive ca-
pacity than the machinery replaced, and may include recommenda-

ments thereof."

KEPOKT TO THE PKESIDENT

The President,

The 'White House.

Sir : This is a report on an amendment to the Code of Fair Com-
petition for the Light Sewing Industry Except Garments. The
amendment which is attached, was presented by tne Divisional Com-
mittee for the Quilting Division.

Notice of opportunity to be heard was given, and all objections
received were given consideration.

The amendment defines " dropped lines " and " seconds ", and pro-
hibits their sale except during the months of January and August.

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 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 ob-
structions 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 industry for the
purpose of cooperative action among trade groups, by inducing and
maintaining united action of labor and management under adequate
govermental 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.

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

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

(198)

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

For the above reasons this amendment has been approved by me.

the provisions of this Code.

"Action by employers in any Subdivision meeting for the election
of Code Authority shall be by vote of the employers entitled to vote
as provided in Section (d) hereof, each such employer to have one
vote only. Action by employers in any Subdivision meeting for the
adoption of procedural rules, submission of a Supplemental Code or
revisions or additions thereto, or the transaction of other business in
such Subdivision under this Code, shall be by vote of the employers

executed and filed with Code Authority of such Subdivision, cast and
computed in the manner provided in Section (d) hereof for \^oting
in the Industry, except that employers in any Subdivision may pre-
scribe such other method of voting as they may determine upon with
the approval of the Administrator.

" The foregoing provisions of this Section (g) shall apply to any
Subdivision only in the event and so long as there shall be no Supple-
mental Code for such Subdivision approved by the Administrator
in the event that such approved Supplemental Code shall fail to
contain provisions for the creation and operation of a permanent
Code Authority."

A Code Authority for the Mechanical Lubricator Subdivision of
Machinery and Allied Products Industry was elected in accordance
with the Basic Code of Machinery and Allied Products Industry as
outlined above, before the Supplemental Code for this Subdivision
was approved. Since the Supplemental Code for this Subdivision,
approved June 4, 1934, does not contain provisions for recognizing
the Code Authority elected in accordance with the provisions of the
Basic Code, an application has been made by the temporary Code
Authority for this Subdivision for an amendment to said Supplemen-
tal Code, which, when approved, will legalize the first permanent
Code Authority elected as shown above. For elections after the
first, the provisions of this Supplemental Code for the election of
a permanent Code Authority shall apply.

The Assistant Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on
said amendment to said Supplemental 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 Supplemental Code and the Supple-
mental 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 organi-
zation of industry for the purpose of cooperative action among trade
groups, by inducing and maintaining united action of labor and
management under adequate governmental sanction and supervision,
by eliminating unfair competitive practices, by promoting the fullest
possible utilization of the present productive capacity of industries,
by avoiding undue restriction of production (except as may be tem-
porarily 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) The Supplemental Code as amended 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.

(c) The Mechanical Lubricator Association was and is a trade
association truly representative of the aforesaid Subdivision and
that said association imposed and imposes no inequitable restrictions
on admission to membership therein and has applied for or consents
to this amendment.

222

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

(e) The amendment and the Supplemental Code as amended are
not designed to and will not eliminate or oppress small enterprises
and will not operate to discriminate against them.

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

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved this amendment to
become effective fifteen (15) days from the date of the Order unless
good cause to the contrary is shown to me before that time and I
issue a subsequent order to that effect.

KEPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir : This is a report on the proposed amendment to the Code of
Fair Competition for the Graphic Arts Industries as approved by
you on February 17, 1934, The proposed amendment is to be added
to Article I, Section 3 (e) of the Code. It was noticed for oppor-
tunity to be heard on June 30, 1934. No criticisms of, objections to
or su<>oestions concerning;: this modification were submitted to the
Administration within the time limit allowed by the notice of oppor-
tunity to be heard, which expired on July 13, 1934.

The amendment <2:ives the Code Authorities under the Graphic
Arts Code the power to collect assessments, and makes it a violation
of the Code for an establishment to fail to pay such assessments when
the budget and basis of contribution of a Code Authority has been
approved by the Administrator.

The proposed amendment does not in any way affect the labor
provisions of the Graphic Arts Code.

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 industry for the purpose
of cooperative action of labor and management under adequate gov-
ernmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair competi-
tiye 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 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.

(c) The Nation^il Graphic Arts Coordinating Committee was and
is the highest governing body of the Graphic Arts Code and truly
representative of the aforesaid industry, and has applied for this
amendment.

(230)

231

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

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

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

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.

dent on March 5, 1934 and further to effectuate the policies of Title
I of the National Industrial Recovery Act, the following modifica-
tion is established as a part of said Code of Fair Competition and

MODinCATION

Modify Article V by adding a new Section to be numbered 7 and

Article V — General Labor Provisions

" Section 7. No employer shall dismiss or demote any employee
for making a complaint or giving evidence with respect to an alleged
violation of the provisions of any code of fair competition approved

Modify Article VII, Section 2, by deleting after the words "pro-
vided, however, that where any member of the Industry desires to
sell ", the words " any presses, units or folders, new or used, already
on hand, below cost " and substituting in lieu thereof the following :
" below cost machinery of dropped design or any presses, units or

dent with making such proposal; and provided, further, that when

cost to meet the competition of a lower cost product or to meet the
competition from products of equivalent design, character, or speci-
fications manufactured outside of the United States, he shall so re-
port to the Code Authority and shall cite the competition which

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The WMfe House.

Sir : 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
Print Roller and Print Block Manufacturing Industry, submitted by
the Code Authority for the said Industry.

The existing provisions of Article VI, Section 7 of the Code for
said Industry, are 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 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 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 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 will provide for the general
welfare by promoting the organization oi 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 productve 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 power, by reducing and reliev-
ing unemplojanent, by improving standards of labor, and by other-
wise rehabilitating industry.

(b) The Code as modified complies in all respects with the perti-
nent provisions of said Title of said Act, including "without limitation
Subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of Section 7, and Sub-
section (b) of 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.

(238)

239 »

(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
modification.

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved this modification,
such approval and such modification to take effect in ten (10) days
unless good cause to the contrary is shown to me before that time and
I issue a subsequent order to that effect.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

A dministrator.

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir : This is a report on the Modification of the Code of Fair Com-
petition for the Saw and Steel Products Manufacturing Industry.
This Modification was proposed and Notice of Opportunity to be
Heard was given from July 19 to August 1, 1934.

This Modification is designed to correct the inadequate price
filing provisions as contained in Article VI, Sections 1, 2, and 3 of
said Code by substituting therefor provisions as determined and set
forth by the National Recovery Administration under Office Memo-
randum #228.

FINDINGS

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said Modi-
fication 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 Modification to 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 ob-
structions 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 industry for the
purpose of cooperative action of labor and management under ade-
quate governmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair
competitive practices, by promoting the fullest possible utilization of
the present productive capacity of industries, by avoiding undue
restrictions of 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.

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

(244)

245

(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
modification.

For these reasons, these Modifications have been approved by me,
subject however, to a ten day waiting period as provided in the
Order of Approval.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

AdTninistrator.

MODIFICATION TO CODE OF FAIK COMPETITION FOR
THE SAW AND STEEL PRODUCTS MANUFACTURING
INDUSTRY

PURPOSE

Pursuant to Article IX of the Code of Fair Competition for the
Saw and Steel Products Manufacturing Industry, duly approved
by the Administrator on February 10, 1934, and further to effec-
tuate the policies of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery
Act, the following Modification is established as a part of said
Code of Fair Competition and shall be binding upon every member
of the Saw and Steel Products Manufacturing Industry.

MODIFICATION

Delete Article VI, Sections 1, 2, 3 and substitute therefor as
follows :

"Section 1. Open Price. — (a) Each member of the industry
shall file with the Coordinator of the Code Authority identified list
of all of his prices, discounts, rebates, allowances, and all other
terms or conditions of sale, hereinafter in this article referred to as
' price terms ', which lists shall completely and accurately conform
to and represent the individual pricing practices of said member.
Such lists shall contain the price terms for all such standard prod-
ucts of the industry as are sold or offered for sale by said member
and for such non-standard products of said member as shall be
designated by the code authority. Said price terms shall in the first
instance be filed within fifteen (15) days after the date of approval
of this provision. Price terms and revised price terms shall become
effective immediately upon receipt thereof by the Coordinator. Im-
mediately upon receipt thereof, the Coordinator shall by telegraph
or other equally prompt means notify said member of the time of
such receipt. Such lists and revisions together wnth the effective
time thereof, shall upon receipt be immediately and simultaneously
distributed to all members of the industry and to all of their cus-
tomers who have applied therefor and have offered to defray the
cost actually incurred by the code authority in the preparation and
distribution thereof and be available for inspection by any of their
customers at the office of the Coordinator. Said lists or revisions
or any part thereof shall not be made available to any person until
released to all members of the industry and their customers, as
aforesaid; provided, that prices filed in the first instance shall not
be released until the expiration of the aforesaid fifteen (15) day
period after the approval of this provision. The code authority
shall maintain a permanent file of all price terms filed as herein
provided, and shall not destroy any part of such records except upon

(24G)

247

written consent of the Administrator. Upon request the code au-
thority shall furnish to the Administrator or any duly designated
agent of the Administrator copies of any such lists or revisions of
price terms.

"(b) When any member of the industry has filed any revision,
such member shall not file a higher price within forty-eight (48)
hours.

''(c) No member of the industry shall sell or offer to sell any
products of the industry, for which price terms have been filed
pursuant to the provisions of this article, except in accordance with
such price terms.

"(d) No member of the industry shall enter into any agreement,
understanding, c mibination or conspiracy to fix or maintain price
terms, nor cause or attempt to cause any member of the industry
to change his price terms by the use of intimidation, coercion, or
any other influence inconsistent with the maintenance of the free
and open market which it is the purpose of this article to create.

" Section 2. Cost Findhig. — The Code Authority shall cause to be
formulated methods of cost finding and accounting capable 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.
Nothing herein contained shall be construed to permit the Code
Authority, any agent thereof, or any member of the industry to
suggest uniform additions, percentages or differentials or other uni-
form items of cost which are designed to bring about arbitrary
uniformity of costs or prices.

" Section 3. Costs and Price Cutting. — (a) The standards of fair
competition for the industry with reference to pricing practices are
declared to be as follows :

"(1) 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-
plain to the Code Authority that any filed price constitutes unfair
competition as destructive price cutting, imperiling small enterprise
or tending toward monopoly or the impairment of code wages and
working conditions. The Code Authority shall within 5 days afford
an opportunity to the member filing the price to answer such com-
plaint and shall within 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.

"(2) "\^'hen 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.

"(3) When an emergency exists as to any given product, sale
below the stated minimum price of such product, in violation of Sec-
tion 2 hereof, is forbidden.

248

"(b) Emergency Provisions:

"(1) If the Administrator, after investigation shall at any time
find both (1) that an emergency has arisen within the industry ad-
versely 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 specified product within the industry
for a limited period is necessary to mitigate the conditions consti-
tuting 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 determination of the stated
minimum price of the product affected by the emergency and there-
upon the Administrator may proceed to determine such stated mini-
mum price.

"(2) When the Administrator shall have determined such stated
minimum price for a specified product for a stated period, which
price shall oe 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 reconsidera-
tion or the Administrator may cause any determinations hereunder
to be reviewed or reconsidered and appropriate action taken."

Sir : This is a report on the modification to the Code of Fair Com-
petition for the Ornamental Moulding, Carving and Turning Indus-
try, which has been submitted in accordance with Executive Order
No. 6678.

This modification enables the Code Authority to incur such reason-
able obligations as are necessary to support the administration of the
code ancl to maintain the standards of fair competition established
by this code. It also enables the Code Authority to submit an item-
ized budget, and an equitable basis upon which the funds necessary
to support such budget shall be contributed by the members of the
industry. Such contributions are made mandatory by this modi-
fication.

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 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 maintain-
ing 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 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.

(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.

(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.

modification.

For these reasons this modification has been approved.

MODIFICATION TO CODE OF FAIR COMPETITION FOR

The Code of Fair Competition for the Ornamental Moulding,
Carving and Turning Industry shall be amended by omitting Sec-
tion 8 of Article VI and inserting the following :

1. It being found necessary in order to support the administration
of this code and to maintain the standards of fair competition estab-
lished hereunder and to effectuate 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 which
shall be held in trust for the purposes of the Code.

(b) To submit to the Administrator for his approval, subject to
such notice and opportunity to be heard as he may deem necessary

tribution to the expenses of the maintenance of the Code Authority,
determined as hereinabove provided, and subject to rules and regu-
lations pertaining thereto issued by the Administrator. Failure to
make payment thereof, after proper notice, will render a member of
the industry liable to appropriate legal proceedings. Only members
of the industry complying with the code and contributing to the ex-
penses of its administration as hereinabove provided, unless duly
exempted from making such contributions, shall be entitled to partic-
ipate in the selection of members of the Code Authoritj^ or to receive

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir : Provision #3 in the Order approving the Code of Fair Com-
petition for the Beater and Jordan and Allied Equipment Subdivi-
sion of Machinery and Allied Products Industry approved by me on
May 14, 1934 provides that the provisions of Article VIII, Section
(e) be and they hereby are stayed pending the submission of satis-
factory evidence concerning distribution of the products of the Sub-
division to the Administrator. This Section (e) of Article VIII
reads as follows:

" No employer shall sell to or through any distributor who shall
fail to agree to resell in accordance with Articles VII, VIII and IX
of this Supplemental Code."

Satisfactory evidence concerning distribution of the products of
the Subdivision has been submitted to me.

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 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 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.

(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.

(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
Modification.

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

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

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The 'White House.

Sir: The Code Authority for the Men's Clothing Industry sub- jj
mitted on March 14, 1934 and May 18, 1934 proposed amendments "
to the Code of Fair Competition for the Men's Clothing Industry.
These amendments when submitted were presented to the Legal i
Division of the National Recovery Administration and received its |
approval.

As these amendments were short and simple and consistent with
the policies of the Administration, a Public Hearing was considered
not necessary and in lieu of the Public Hearing, notices of Oppor-
tunity to be Heard were printed and distributed in the same manner
as the Notice of Public Hearing. A specified date was set forth in j
such notices by which time objections and criticisms were to be re-
ceived relative to these amendments. Up to and including the dates
specified in such notices, no objections or criticisms were received.

In their final form these amendments received the approval of the ;
Industrial Advisory Board, the Labor Advisory Board, the Con-
sumers' Advisory Board, and the Legal and Research and Planning
Divisions of the National Recovery Administration.

The first amendment provides that no member of the Men's
Clothing Code Authority shall be liable in any manner to anyone
for any act of any other member, officer, agent, or employee of the
Code Authority. The second amendment provides that the Code
Authority may incorporate and be known as the Men's Clothing
Code Authority, Incorporated.

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
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

KEPORT 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 a modification of the Code of Fair Competition for the
Pipe Nipple Manufacturing Industry, submitted by the Code
Authority for the said Industry.

The existing provisions of Article VI, Section 8, of the Code for
said Industry, are 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
provisions of which follow closely the text of the above mentioned
Orders, will overcome the existing ihadequate provisions.

FINDINGS

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said mod-
ification 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 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 agricultural prod-
ucts through increasing purchasing power, by reducing and reliev-
ing unemployment, by improving standards of labor, and by other-
wise 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 Subsection (a) of Section 3. Subsection (a) of Section 7,
and Subsection (b) of 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 sm.all enterprises and will not
operate to discriminate against them.

(288)

289

(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
modification.

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved this modification,
such approval and such modification to take effect in ten (10) days
unless good cause to the contrary is shown to me before that time
and I issue a subsequent order to that effect.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Administrator,

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.

5. Nothing contained in this Code shall constitute the members
of the Code Authority partners for any purpose. Nor shall any

303

Code Authority. Nor shall any member of the Code Authority,
exercising reasonable diligence in the conduct of his duties here-
under, be liable to anyone for any action or omission to act under
this Code, except for his own wilful malfeasance or nonfeasance.

6. If the Administrator shall at any time determine that any
action of a Code Authority or any agency thereof may be unfair or
unjust or contrary to the public interest, the Administrator may re-
quire that such action be suspended to afford an opportunity for in-
vestigation of the merits of such action and further consideration by
such Code Authority or agency pending final action which shall not
be effective unless the Administrator approves or unless he shall fail
to disapprove after thirty (30) days' notice to him of intention to

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

(a) Wilfully destructive price cutting is an unfair method of
competition and is forbidden. Any member of the Industry*

307

or of any other Industry, or the customers of either, may at any
time complain to the Code Authority that any price quoted
and/or charged constitutes unfair competition as destructive
price cutting, imperiling small enterprises or tending toward
monopoly or the impairment of code wages and working condi-
tions. The Code Authority shall within five (5) days afford an
opportunity to the member quoting and/or charging 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 sourid 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 2 hereof, is forbidden.

2. Emergency Provisions :

(a) If the Administrator, after investigation shall at any
time find both (1) that an emergency has arisen within the In-
dustry 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 jDrice for a specified prod-
uct within the Industry for a limited period is necessary to
mitigate the conditions constituting such emergency and to effec-
tuate the purposes of the Act, the Code Authority 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 Ad-
ministrator 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 condi-
tions 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 Indus-
try, shall sell such specified proclucts 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 Author-
ity may recommend review or reconsideration or the Adminis-
trator may cause any determinations hereunder to be reviewed
or reconsidered and appropriate action taken.

Article X — Modification

1.^ This Code and all the provisions thereof are expressly made
subject to the right of the President, in accordance with the pro-

86360—34 10

308

visions of 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 Title I of said Act.

2, Such of the provisions of this Code as are not required to be in-
cluded herein by the Act may, with the approval of the Administra-
tor, be modified or eliminated in such manner as may be indicated by
the needs of the public, by changes in circumstances or by experience,
All the provisions of this Code, unless so modified or eliminated,
shall remain in effect until June 16, 1935.

Article XI — Monopolies, Etc.

No provision of this Code shall be so applied as to permit monopo-
lies or monopolistic practices, or to eliminate, oppress, or discrimi-
nate against small enterprises.

Article XII — 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, and when made such increases should, so far as
possible, be limited to actual additional increases in the seller's
costs.

Article XIII — Effective Date

This amended Code shall become affective on and after the second
Monday after its approval, and shall thereupon supersede the Code
of Fair Competition for the Artificial Flower and Feather Industry,
approved on September 7, 1933.

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 among trade groups, by inducing and maintaining
united action of labor and management under adequate governmental
sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair competitive practices,
by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the present produc-
tive capacity of industries, by avoiding undue restriction of produc-
tion (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 the 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.

(310)

311

(c) The National Association of Hosiery Manufacturers was and
is an industrial associaton truly representative of the aforesaid
industry and that said association imposed and imposes no inequi-
table restrictions on admission to membership therein and has applied
for or consents to this amendment.

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

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

not been deprived of the right to be heard prior to approval of said
amendment.

For these reasons this amendment has been approved.

Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

to a Supf)lementary Code of Fair Competition for the Carbon Diox-

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir: This is a report on the proposed amendments to the Supple-
mentary Code of Fair Competition for the Carbon Dioxide Industry,
a division of the Chemical Manufacturing Industry, as approved
by me on May 4, 1934. A notice of opportunity to be heard on these
amendments was published on June 22, 1934. Full opportunit}'^ to
be heard was given to all interested parties.

The purposes and effects of the amendments are as follows :

Amendment No. 1 enables the Code Authority to incur such reason-
able obligations as are necessary for the administration of the Code.
It requires that the Code Authority 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 In-
dustry. Payment of an equitable contribution to the expenses of the
Code Authority by members of the Industry is made mandatory by
this amendment if their principal line of business is covered by
this Code.

Amendment No. 2 deletes Section 1, Price Lists, Section 2, Revised
Price Lists, and Section 3, Adherence to Price Lists, of Article IV
of the approved Code and substitutes therefor Sections 1, 2 and 3
of Exhibit A in Office Memorandum No. 228, with certain minor
modifications, these being the open price filing provisions proposed
by the Administration.

The Code Authority proposed that the Chairman of the Code
Authority shall act as the confidential and disinterested agent of
the Code Authority with whom members of the Industry shall file
price lists. This, however, has been changed back to the Admin-
istration's more general proposal, leaving it to the Code Authority
to designate a " confidential and disinterested agent " because the
designation of a particular individual or agency in a Federal statute
is not considered advisable, owing to the possibility of change.

Amendment No. 3 deletes Section 4 of Article IV and substitutes
therefor Section 4 of Exhibit A of Office Memorandum No. 228.

Amendment No. 4 inserts a new Section 9 in Article IV which is
merely a revision of the old Section 4 (deleted by Amendment No. 3)
in order that it shall refer to the equivalent provisions as renum-
bered by these amendments.

Amendment No. 5 establishes a new article to be known as Article
IV-A, Trade Practice Provisions — Price Cutting, which is Sec-
tion 1 (a) of Exhibit B of Office Memorandum No. 228 with a minor
modification.

Amendment No. 6 deletes Section 2 of Article V and substitutes
therefor a new Section 2, the purpose of which is to clarify the
existing provision because of complaints made in regard to same.

(315)

316

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

(c) The Carbon Dioxide Institute was and is an industrial asso-
ciation 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 these
amendments.

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

(e) These 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.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Admvinistrator.

AMENDMENT TO SUPPLEMENTAKY CODE OF FAIR COM-
PETITION FOR THE CARBON DIOXIDE INDUSTRY

A DIVISION OF THE CHEMICAL MANUFACTTJKING INDUSTRY

Amendment 1. Delete Section 4 of Article III and substitute
therefor the following:

" Section 4 A. It being found necessary in order to support the
administration of this Code and to maintain the standards of fair
competition established hereunder and to effectuate 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 which
shall be held in trust for the purposes of the Code :

"(b) To submit to the Administrator for his approval, subject
to such notice and opportunity to be heard as he may deem necessary
(1) an itemized budget of its estimated expenses for the foregoing
purposes, and (2) an equitable basis upon which the funds necessary
to support such budget shall be contributed by members of the
Industry :

" B. Each member of the Industry 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 regulations pertaining thereto issued by the Administrator.
Only members of the Industry complying with the Code and con-
tributing to the expenses of its administration as hereinabove pro-
vided, shall be entitled to participate in the selection of members
of the Code Authority or to receive the benefits of any of its volun-
tary activities or to make use of any emblem or insignia of the
National Recovery Administration.

" C. The Code Authority shall neither incur nor pay any obliga-
tion in excess of the amount thereof as estimated in its approved
budget, except upon approval of the Administrator; and no subse-
quent budget shall contain any deficiency item for expenditures in
excess of prior budget estimates except those which the Administra-
tor shall have so approved."

Amendment 2. Delete Sections 1, 2 and 3 of Article IV, and
substitute therefor the following : Sections 1, 2 and 3.

" Section 1. Each member of the Industry shall file with a con-
fidential and disinterested agent of the Code Authority, identified
lists of all of his prices, discounts, rebates, allowances, and all other

(317)

318

terms or condition of sale, hereinafter in this article referred to as
' price terms ', which lists shall completely and accurately conform to
and represent the individual pricing practices of said member. Such
lists shall contain the price terms for all such standard products of
the Industry as are sold or offered for sale by said member and for
such non-standard products of said member as shall be designated by
the Code Authority. The provisions of Section 1 of Article IV of
the Supplementary Code approved May 4, 1934 which obligated
members of the Industry to file initial price lists with the Code
Authority within 15 days after the effective date of this Code is not
changed insofar as the time for filing the initial price lists is con-

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir : The Public Hearing on amendments to the Code of Fair Com-
petition for the Cotton Garment Industry as proposed by the Code
Authority for this Industry was conducted on Tuesday, May 22, 1934,
in the Sun Parlor, Washington Hotel, Washington, D.C.

Every person who requested an appearance was fairly heard in
accordance with the requirements of the National Recoverj'^ Admin-
istration. Present were authorized representatives of the Code Au-
thority for this Industry, representatives of each of the Sub-Divi-
sional Trade Associations, representatives of the National Retail Dry
Goods Association and representative members of the Industry.

The Amendments are drafted as a new Article XIX of the Code
of Fair Competition and completes the Code inasmuch as up to this
time the Cotton Garment Code has had no Fair Trade Practices.

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said amend-
ment to said Code having found has 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 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 re-
habilitating industry.

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

(322)

323

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

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

For these reasons these trade practice provisions have been ap-
proved.

Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

AdTTiinistrator.

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir : This is a report on the modification to the Code of Fair
Competition for the End Grain Strip Wood Block Industry, which
has been submitted in accordance with Executive Order No. 6678.

This modification enables the Code Authority to incur such reason-
able obligations as are necessary to support the administration of the
code and to maintain the standards of fair competition established
by this code. It also enables the Code Authority to submit an item-
ized budget, and an equitable basis upon which the funds necessary
to support such budget shall be contributed by the members of the
industry. Such contributions are made mandatory by this
modification.

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 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 among trade groups by inducing and maintaining
united action of labor and management under adequate governmental
sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair competitive practices,
by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the present productive
capacity of industries, by avoiding undue restriction of production
(except as may be temporarily required), by increasing the consump-
tion of industrial and agricultural products through increasing pur-
chasing power, by inducing and relieving unemployment, by improv-
ing standards of labor, and by otherwise rehabilitating industry.

(b) The code as modified complies in all respects with the perti-
nent provisions of said Title of said Act, including without limitation
subsection (a) of Section 3, subsection (a) of Section 7 and subsection
(b) of Section 10 thereof.

(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.

(336)

337

■ (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 this modification has been approved.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Administrator.
August 16, 1934.

MODIFICATION TO CODE OF FAIR COMPETITION FOR
THE END GRAIN STRIP WOOD BLOCK INDUSTRY

Article VI, Section 10, Subsection (f) is modified to read as
follows :

(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 which
shall be held in trust for the purposes of the Code ;

(b) To submit to the Administrator for his approval, subject to
such notice and opportunity to be heard as he may deem necessary
(1) an itemized budget of its estimated expenses for the foregoing
purposes and (2) an equitable basis upon which the funds necessary
to support such budget shall be contributed by members of the
industry ;

(c) After such budget and basis of contribution has been approved
by the Administrator, to determine and obtain equitable contribution
as above set forth by all members of the industry, and to that end,
if necessary, to institute legal proceedings therefor in its own name.

2. Each member of the industry shall pay his or its equitable con-
tribution to the expenses of the maintenance of the Code Authority^
determined as hereinabove provided, and subject to rules and regu-
lations pertaining thereto issued by the Administrator. Only mem-
bers of the industry complying with the code and contributing to
the expenses of its administration as hereinabove provided, unless
duly exempted from making such contributions, shall be entitled to
participate in the selection of members 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.

3. The Code Authority shall neither incur nor pay an}^ obligation
substantially in excess of the amount thereof as estimated in its ap-
proved budget, and shall in no event exceed the total amount con-
tained in the approved budget, except upon approval of the Admin-
istrator; and no subsequent budget shall contain any deficiency item
for expenditures in excess of prior budget estimates except those
which the Administrator shall have so approved.

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir: This is a report on the jDroposed modifications of the Code
of Fair Competition for the Graphic Arts Industries as approved
by you on February 17, 1934. A public hearing was held on these
proposed modifications on Ai)ril 5, 1934, and full opportunity was
given to all interested parties to appear.

The proposed modifications consist of Administrative provisions,
fair trade practice provisions, wage and hour provisions, and provi-
sions relating to apprentices. The Administrative provisions and
fair trade practice provisions are in the form of an Appendix to the
Code.

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said modi-
fications 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 modifications to said Code and the Code as modified are
well designed to promote the policies and purjDOses 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 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 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.

(b) The Code as modified 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; that the group submitting this
amendment is truly representative of the aforesaid Industry, and
that the Association of Bank Note Companies imposes no inequitable
restrictions on admission to membership therein.

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

(d) The modifications 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.

(340)

341

(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
modifications.

I believe the modifications 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.

AMENDMENT TO CODE OF FAIR COMPETITION FOR
THE GRAPHIC ARTS INDUSTRIES

Amending Section 23 by adding Sub-section C, as follows.

MECHANICAL EMPLOYEES (CONTINUED)

C. Engaged in the Securities and Bank Note Engraving and
Printing Industry (C-3).

The provisions of this Sub-section 23-C shall govern all establish-
ments engaged in the Securities and Bank Note Engraving and
Printing Industry and shall be applicable to all of the mechanical
employees of such establishments engaged in any of the processes or
partial processes of that type of engraving known as bank note steel
engraving.

(a) Unskilled mechanical employees — minimum wages. Estab-
lishments covered by this Sub-section 23-C shall pay unskilled me-
chanical employees not less than 40 cents per hour, unless, on July 15,
1929, the hourly rate for the same class of work was less than 40
cents per hour, in which latter case establishments shall pay not
less than such hourly rate on July 15, 1929, but in no event less than
30 cents per hour.

(b) Skilled mechanical employees — minimum wages.

1. Each establishment, with the exception of (a) establishments
which are operating under wage agreements arrived at by collective
bargaining; and (b) establishments which are paying not less than
the hourly wage rates which they were paying on July 15, 1929, shall,
within thirty (30) days after this Sub-section 23-C becomes ett'ective,
make increases in its average hourly compensation for each class of
skilled labor on the following basis :

Each such establishment shall increase the hourly or piecework
rates for each class of skilled labor to a point where (including
increases made since July 1, 1933) they are ten per cent (10%) higher
than the rates in the. same establishment in effect on July 1, 1933
for the same classes of skilled labor, provided, however, that no
establishment need increase rates above those paid on July 15, 1929
for the same class of skilled labor in the same establishment or in
establishments producing similar work coming within the above
clauses (a) or (b) ; and provided, further, that no establishment
which, on July 1, 1933, was paying an average hourly wage at least
10% higher than the average wage for the same class of skilled labor
prevailing in other establishments in the industry need make the
increase in rates specified in this paragraph.

The " average wage for the same class of skilled labor prevailing
in other establishments in the industry " shall be the average of the
rates paid to all the employees performing any given class of skilled
labor in such other establishments ascertained by adding the hourly

(342)

343

compensation paid to all the employees performing any given class
of skilled labor in such other establishments and dividing the total
by the number of employees performing such class of skilled labor
in such other establishments.

2. Within thirty (30) days after the effective date of this Sub-
Section 23-C any rate increases under paragraph 1 must be further
augmented by such amounts as may be necessary to bring the average
hourly compensation paid for each class of skilled labor in each estab-
lishment up to ninety per cent (90%) of the average rates prevailing
on July 1, 1933 in the industry for each class of skilled labor, pro-
vided, however, that no establishment need increase rates above those
j)aid on July 15, 1929 for the same class of skilled labor in the same
establishment.

" Prevailing " rates as used above shall mean the average of the
rates paid to all employees in the industry performing any given
class of skilled labor, ascertained by adding the hourly compensation
paid to all the employees in the industry performing any given class
of skilled labor and dividing the total by the number of employees
performing such class of skilled labor in the industry.

The increases provided for in this paragraph 2 shall not apply to
employees receiving an hourly wage of $1.65 or more. However,
in arriving at the " prevailing " rates, the wages of employees re-
ceiving an hourly wage of more than $1.65 shall be taken into con-
sideration but shall be taken at $1.65 per hour.

3. In no instance shall the foregoing be applied in a manner to
reduce the present hourly rate paid to any employee.

4. It is hereby specifically declared that the foregoing provisions
are intended to establish only minimum and not maximum wage
requirements.

1. No establishment shall pay to any skilled employee a rate lower
than the minimum established for an unskilled mechanical employee.

2. An employee performing more than one type of task shall be
compensated on the basis of the rates applying to each such type
of task for the time employed thereon.

(d) Hours of Labor. — 1. Standard Working Hovirs. — Standard
working hours shall be 40 hours a week for all engaged in mechan-
ical work, including proprietors, supervisors, foremen and/or others
for the time actually engaged in mechanical work. The work week
in the case of each individual so employed shall be divided into not
more than six shifts, no one of which shall be more than 8 hours
unless overtime be paid. When necessary, overtime may be per-
mitted; provided (1) that mechanical employees shall receive not
less than the overtime rate (one and one-half times his hourly wage
or piecework rate) for all work in excess of 8 hours within any 24
hour period, and/or in excess of 40 hours in any one week, and that
double time shall be paid for Sundays and holidays, and provided
further, (2) that no more than 520 hours shall be worked by any
mechanical employee in any 13 week period.

None of the foregoing provisions shall be construed to limit the
number of days per week or shifts per day an establishment may
operate.

344

2. Maximwni hour exceptions. — (a) The maximum hours fixed
by this Sub-Section 23-C shall not apply to employees on emer-
gency maintenance or repair work, nor to employees in cases where
the restriction of hours of highly skilled artistic or mechanical
workers on continuous processes would unavoidably reduce produc-
tion; but in such cases time and one-half shall be paid for all hours
worked in excess of 8 hours in any one day or 40 hours in any one
week.

(b) A tolerance of ten per cent (10%) without overtime pay, over
the maximum hours herein prescribed, shall be allowed in the cases
of wash-up crews, shipping crews, material handlers, elevator opera-
tors, and other mechanical employees whose duties have no direct
connection with Graphic Arts processes, and a tolerance of twenty
per cent (20%) without overtime pay, shall be allowed in the cases
of outside delivery men, porters, engineers, firemen, janitors, watch-
men or guards.

3. Apprentices. — Because of the widespread unemployment of
skilled employees in this industry, no establishment shall indenture
any new apprentices within a period of one year after the effective
date of this Sub-Section 23-C.

organization of industry for the purpose of cooperative action among
trade groups, by inducing and maintaining united action of labor and
management under adequate governmental sanction and supervision,
by eliminating unfair competitive practices, by promoting the fullest
possible utilization of the present productive capacity of industries,
by avoiding undue restriction of production (except as may be tem-
porarily required), by increasing the consumption of industrial and
agricultural products through increasing purchasing power, by reduc-
ing and relieving unemployment^ by improving standards of labor,
and by otherwise rehabilitating industry.

(b) The Order as amended and affecting the Code 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.

(c) The Amendment to the Order and the Order as amenedd and

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

In order that the Code Authority for the Hoisting Engine Manu-
facturing Subdivision of Machinery and Allied Products Industry
may establish legal obligation making payment of approved Code
Authority assessments for Code Administration mandatory, and that
if such assessments are not paid within reasonable time it may insti-
tute legal proceedings therefor, this Subdivision has submitted and
respectfully requested approval of an amendment whereby these
purposes may be accomplished.

The Assistant Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on
said amendment to said Supplemental 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 Supplemental Code and the Supple-
mental 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 organi-
zation 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 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 purchas-
ing power, by reducing and relieving unemployment, by improving
standards of labor, and by otherwise rehabilitating industry.

(c) The Hoisting Engine Manufacturers Association was and is
a trade association truly representative of the aforesaid Subdivision
and that said association imposed and imposes no inequitable restric-
tions on admission to membership therein and has applied for or
consents to this amendment.

(352)

353

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

(e) The amendment and the Supplemental Code as amended are
not designed to and will not eliminate or oppress small enterprises
and will not operate to discriminate against them,

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

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved this amendment
to become effective fifteen (15) days from the date of the Order un-
less good cause to the contrary is shown to me before that time and I
issue a subsequent order to that effect.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The 'White House.

Sir: The Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on the
Amended Code of Fair Competition for the Coat and Suit Industry-
having found as herein set forth and on the basis of all the proceed-
ings 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
obstructions to the free flow of interstate and foreign commerce
which tend to diminish the amount thereof, and will provide for the
general welfare by promoting the organization of industry for the
purpose of cooperative action of labor and management under ade-
quate governmental sanction and supervision, by eliminating unfair
competitive practices, by promoting the fullest possible utilization
of the present productive capacity of industries, by avoiding undue
restriction of production (except as may be temporarily required),
by increasing the consumption of industrial and agricultural prod-
ucts through increasing purchasing power, by reducing and re-
lieving unemployment, by improving standards of labor, and by
otherwise rehabilitating industry.

(b) The Code as amended complies in all respects with the per-
tinent provision 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 eliminate or oppress small enterprises and will not
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
Code as amended.

(f) The Code of Fair Competition for the Coat and Suit Indus-
try was submitted July 13, 1933, and approved by you on August 4,
1933. It was the fifth Code to be approved. After seven months
of operation under the original Code, both the Industry and the
Deputy Administrator were convinced that various amendments were
necessary both to bring the Code up to date and to provide for
representation of the contractors located in the State of New Jersey
on the Code Authority. The Amended Code provides that the
Administrator or a Deputy Administrator of the State Recovery
Administration of New Jersey shall be a member of the Coat and
Suit Code Authority.

(g) The Infants' and Children's Wear Group manufacture certain
types of infants' and children's coats under the wage and hour

(356)

357

provisions of the Code of Fair Competition for the Coat and Suit
Industry. Their claim for representation on the Coat and Suit Code
Authority was, therefore, felt to be just. However, the Coat and
Suit Code Authority has requested that Article VI, Section 7, which
provides for this member, be stayed until such time as the Infants'
and Children's Wear Code Authority shall make a similar proposal
providing for representation of the Coat and Suit Industry on the
Infants' and Children's Wear Code Authority.

(h) Certain members of the Industry located in the Eastern Area
and the Western Area have complained both to the Code Authority
and to the Administration that the differentials provided for those
two groups with respect to New York City were insufficient, due
mainly to the fact that they were located in markets having an
insufficient supply of skilled workers or that because of the charac-
teristics of the workers they were unable to attain a degree of skill
comparable to workers available in large quantities in the City of
New York. Hearings were held on the Amended Code April 30,
May 2 and May 4, 1934. In the beginning, it was apparent that the
views of the different gi'oups were widely divergent, and that sub-
stantial agreements as a direct result of the hearings would be
difficult. However, at a series of post-hearing conferences, the three
groups involved managed to come to a perfect agreement on all points
at issue, which resulted in the final draft of the Amended Code.
The most important result of these conferences was the agreement
reached, designated as Article IV, Section 4 of the iVmended Code,
which provides for the appointment of a Commission of three per-
sons, one of whom shall represent labor, to investigate all markets
engaged in the manufacture and wholesale distribution of wearing
apparel included in the Coat and Suit Code. The Commission is to
study the following situations and conditions in the various localities
and all markets :

A. Labor conditions: Available labor supply, male and
female; relative skill of labor in the market; method of opera-
tion; existing labor agreements; cost of production.

B. Availability of markets : Raw materials; finished products.

C. Competitive irregularities.

This Commission is to make its report to the Administrator, who
shall, after holding such hearings as he may see fit, consider and
determine such changes in rates and differentials between markets
as may be indicated by the report of the Commission.

The Code as originally approved contained no fair trade practice
provisions. Certain fair trade practice provisions were submitted
by the Code Authority at the hearings. After other post-hearing
conferences in which the members of the Industry and the retailers,
as represented by the National Retail Dry Goods Association, par-
ticipated, final draft was submitted to the Administrator with the
approval of both parties. These fair trade practice provisions are
incorporated in the Amended Code under Article VIII.

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

Hugh S. Johnson,

A dministrator.

August 20, 1934.

table contribution as above set forth by all members of the Indus-
try, and to that end, if necessary, to institute legal proceedings
therefor in its own name.

2. Each member of the Industry shall pay his or its equitable
contribution to the expenses of the maintenance of the Code Author-
ity, determined as hereinabove provided, and subject to rules and
regulations pertaining thereto issued by the Administrator. Only
members of the Industry complying with the Code and contributing
to the expenses of its administration as hereinabove provided, shall
be entitled to participate in the selection of members 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.^

3. The Code Authority shall neither incur nor paj^ any obligation
in excess of the amount thereof as estimated in its approved budget,
except upon approval of the Administrator; and no subsequent
budget shall contain any deficiency item for expenditures in excess
of prior budget estimates except those which the Administrator
shall have so approved.

I. To make such investigations to the extent permitted by the Act,
as to the observance of this Code as it may deem necessary and to
receive complaints of violations of this Code and conduct hearings
in pursuance to such investigations and complaints.

J. To set up bureaus to aid in the administration of the wage

wise arise that may endanger the stability of the Industry and/or
production and employment.

L. To recommend to the Administrator any action or measure
deemed advisable, including further fair trade practice provisions

stabilization of employment; and including modifications of this
Code which shall become effective as part hereof upon approval by
the Administrator after such notice and hearing as he may specify.

M. To appoint a Trade Practice Committee which shall meet with
the Trade Practice Committees appointed under such other codes
as may be related to the Industry for the purpose of formulating
fair trade practices to govern the relationships between employers
under this Code and under such other codes to the end that such fair
trade practices may be proposed to the Administrator as amendments
to this Code and such other codes.

N. To provide appropriate facilities for arbitration, and subject
to the approval of the Administrator, to prescribe rules of procedure
and rules to effect compliance with awards and determinations.

3. Nothing contained in this Code shall constitute the members of
the Code Authority partners for any purpose. Nor shall any member
of the Code Authority be liable in any manner to anyone for any act
of any other member, officer, agent or employee of the Code Author-
ity. Nor shall any member of the Code Authority, exercising rea-
sonable diligence in the conduct of his duties hereunder, be liable
to anyone for any action or omission to act under this Code, except
for his own wilful malfeasance or non-feasance.

4. During the years 1924 and 1925, an unemployment insurance
fund was established and existed in the coat and suit industry. It was
discontinued because of the general disorganization of the Industry.
There is every hope and expectation on the part of the employers and
employees that through the National Industrial Recovery Act steps
may again be taken to put into active operation an unemployment
insurance fund. Accordingly, such fund shall be resumed as soon
as the enforcement of uniform labor standards and general stabli-
zation have reached a point at which the provisions for payment of
unemployment insurance contributions can be generally enforced
throughtout the Industry. The time when the conditions in the
Industry shall have reached a point when such fund may be reestab-
lished shall be determined by the Code Authority hereinbefore
mentioned and the Administrator. When it is reestablished, it shall
be in accordance with such provisions as shall be determined upon by
the said Code Authority and the Administrator.

5. A committee on Trade Education shall be constituted by the
Code Authority to consider the status of Student Apprenticeships.
The term " Student Apprentice " shall mean a person not heretofore
engaged in the Industry, who has matriculated in or graduated from
a duly accredited trade school. The Code Authority shall be empow-
ered to make rules to govern the status of such Student Apprentices,
subject to approval of Administrator.

6. In order that the Code Authority shall at all times be truly
representative of the Industry 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 re-
spects comply with the provisions of the Act, may require an appro-
priate modification of the Code Authority.

7. If the Administrator shall at any time determine that any action
of the Code Authority or any agency thereof may be unfair or unjust

367

or contrary to the public interest, the Administrator may require
that such action be suspended to afford an opportunity for mvesti-
gation of the merits of such action and further consideration by such
Code Authority or agency pending final action, which shall not be
effective unless the Administrator approves, or unless he shall fail
to disapprove after thirty (30) days' notice to him of intention to
proceed with such action in its original or modified form.

8. To obtain from members of the Industry such information and
reports as are required for the administration of the Code. In ad-
dition to information required to be submitted to the Code Authority,
members of the Industry subject to this Code shall furnish such
statistical information as the Administrator may deem necessary for
the purposes recited in Section 3 (a) of the Act to such Federal and
State agencies as he may designate; provided that nothing in this
Code shall relieve any member^ of the Industry of any existing obli-
gations to furnish reports to any Government agency. No individual
report shall be disclosed to any other member of the Industry or any
other party except to such other Governmental agencies as may be
directed by the Administrator.

9. There shall be established an Industrial Kelations Committee
for the Industry, which shall consist of an equal number of repre-
sentatives of emploj'^ers and employees and an impartial chairman.
The Administrator shall appoint such impartial chairman upon the
failure of the committee to select one by agreement. If no truly
representative labor organization exists, the employee members of
such board may be nominated by the Labor Advisory Board of
the National Recovery Administration and appointed by the
Administrator. The employer representatives shall be chosen by the
Code Authority. Such Committee shall deal with complaints and
disputes relating to labor in accordance with rules and regulations
issued by the Administrator. The Industrial Relations Committee
may establish such divisional, regional, and local industrial adjust-
ment agencies as it may deem desirable, each of which shall be con-
stituted in like manner as the Industrial Relations Committee.

Article VII — Conteactors

All members of the Industry who cause their garments to be made
by contractors and submanufacturers shall designate the contractors
actually required, shall confine and distribute their work equitably
to and among them, and shall adhere to the payment of rates for
such production in an amount sufficient to enable the contractor or
submanufacturer to pay the employees the wages and earnings pro-
vided for in this Code, together with an allowance for the contractor's
overhead.

Transactions with contractors and/or submanufacturers shall be
on a net basis subject to no discount. No charges shall be made to
the contractors and/or submanufacturers or against their account
except for materials furnished. Contractors and/or submanufac-
turers when charged will be charged for the net yardage of materials
furnished them.

To insure the observance of this provision, the Code Authority
named in this Code, together with the Administrator, shall formu-
late provisions to carry into effect the purpose and intent hereof.

provisions hereof apply to all sales of articles under the provisions
of this Code. It shall be deemed an unfair trade practice for persons,
firms or corporations, engaged in the Industry, to contract to sell
or to sell articles to anyone upon conditions other than as are pro-
vided herein.

All contracts shall include full details for proper identification of
material, size, color, price and delivery specifications and other pro-
visions as may be deemed desirable.

When definite shipping date is specified on copy of order left in
showroom, such date shall be extended for the number of working-
days lost pending receipt of confirmation thereof when a confirma-
tion is required by the buyer.

When an order placed by a buyer requires confirmation same must
be stated on the face of the order.

All shipping dates are subject to strikes, lockouts, fires, and other
circumstances beyond the control of the seller, and such shipping
dates may by reason thereof be postponed, provided that notice of
such strikes, lockouts, fires, and other circumstances beyond the
control of the seller, be given the purchaser.

Garments not shipped within the time specified in the order shall
nevertheless remain on order until cancelled in writing and three
working days of grace shall be granted for the completion of ship-
ment after the receipt of such notice of cancellation.

Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this contract
or the breach thereof, may be settled by arbitration, in accordance
with the Rules, then obtaining, of the American Arbitration Associa-
tion, and judgment upon the award rendered may be entered in the
highest court of the forum, state or federal, having jurisdiction;
provided this provision for arbitration shall not have been deleted
by the purchaser upon, or prior to, the execution of this contract
and provided further that both parties assent to such form of
arbitration.

2. Terms of discount on seasonal merchandise shall be not more
than 8%, 10 days E.O.M. (end of month), or 7/30 6/60 net 5 days
after last due date. Anticipation shall not be allowed at a rate in
excess of 6% per annum.

shall determine what shall constitute a bona fide order.

5. No member of the Industry shall pay for any advertising or

payments or allowance of refunds, rebates, commissions, credits or
unearned discounts whether in the form of money or otherwise, or

the same class under like terms and conditions.

7. No return merchandise shall be accepted for credit other than
for defects of manufacture, delay in delivery, or for non-conformity
with order, but in no event shall such returns be accepted unless
made within five working days of receipt, except for defects of
manufacture not discoverable within ten days after receipt.

8. No member of the Industry shall give, permit to be given, or
directly offer to give, anything of value for the purpose of influenc-
ing or rewarding the action of any employee, agent, or representative
of 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. Commercial
bribery provisions shall not be construed to prohibit free and gen-
eral distribution of articles commonly used for advertising except
so far as such articles are actually used for commercial bribery as
hereinabove defined.

9. No member of the Industry shall make garments from fabrics,
trimmings and/or other materials owned or supplied by a retail
distributor or the agent, representative or corporate subsidiary or
affiliate of such retail distributor, or manufacture garments from
fabrics, trimmings and/or other materials, the purchase of which is
made upon the credit of, or the payment for which, is guaranteed by
such retail distributor, or the agent, representative, corporate sub-
sidiary or affiliate of such retail distributor, except that manufac-
turers and/or contractors may make garments on the above basis for
mail order firms designated as such by the National Retail Code
Authority, Inc., provided that the mail order firm so designated
shall designate and file with the Coat and Suit Code Authority the
number and names of the manufacturers and/or contractors actually
required by them for any work and shall confine and distribute such
work equitably to and among such named manufacturers and/or
contractors, provided further, that any mail order firm operating
under this exception shall pay an allowance to the manufacturer
and/or contractor for overhead and agree that if any such manufac-
turer and/or contractor fail to adhere to the hour and wage provi-
sions of this Code the mail order firm supplying the materials directly
or indirectly shall be responsible for any underpayment to labor
engae-ed in the manufacture of the merchandise for it.

370

No manufacturer shall deliver coats to any retailer in incomplete
form so that the retailer may complete the garment or attach fur
thereto.

cost finding and accounting capable 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 con-
cerning 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. Nothing herein contained
shall be construed to permit the Code Authority, any agent thereof,
or any member of the Industry to suggest uniform additions, per-
centages or diilerentials or other uniform items of cost which are
designed to bring about arbitrary uniformity of costs or prices.

11. No member of the Industry shall pay any commissions to resi-

petitor by false or misleading statements or representation, by a.
false impersonation of one in authority, bribery, or by any other
unfair method.

14. No member of the Industry shall replace worn furs on gar-
ments with new furs at less than the cost of such furs and labor
performed.

371

! 15. Within thirty (30) days after the effective date of this Code,

and powers :

(a) All members of the Industry who so desire may file with
the Design Registration Committee all original designs in accord-

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The 'White House.

Sir: The Public Hearing on amendments to the Code of Fair
Competition for the Fresh Water Pearl Button Manufacturing In-
dustry, approved February 28, 1934, as proposed by the Code
Authority for this Industry was conducted on Monday, April 9, 1934,
in the Mayflower Hotel, Washington, D. C.

Each person who requested an appearance was fairly heard in
public in accordance with the regulations of the National Recovery
Administration. Present were representatives of the Code Authority
for this Industry, and representative members of the Industry.

Section 4 of Article IV, Wages, has been amended. Article V,
General Labor Provisions, has been amended by the addition of a
new Section 8. Section 12 of Article VII, Trade Practices, has
been amended.

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
obstruction's to the free flow of interstate and foreign commerce
which tend to diminish the amount thereof, and will provide for
the general welfare by promoting the organization of Industry
for the purpose of cooperative action of labor and management
under adequate governmental sanction and supervision, by 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
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.

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

(e) The amendements 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.

(374)

375

(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, these amendments have been approved.
Kespectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Administrator.

AMENDMENT TO CODE OF FAIR COMPETITION FOR
THE FRESH WATER PEARL BUTTON MANUFACTUR-
ING INDUSTRY

Article IV, Paragraph 4, is hereby amended to read as follows:

4. No member of the Industry shall pay an employee a lesser time
rate than is required to provide the same earnings for the hourly work
week herein established, than was received for that class of work by
such employee for the longer full time work week prevailing as of
July 1, 1933. All piecework rates shall be increased above the rates of
July 1, 1933, so that earnings based upon piecework rate for the
full time work week herein established shall not be less than was
received for that class of work for the longer full time work week as
of July 1, 1933. When new types (sizes or patterns) of products are
produced by any member of the Industry, piecework rates to be paid
for such work shall be arrived at on an equitable basis with the rates
prevailing in that factory.

Any member of this Industry may change an employee's method of
compensation from a piece rate to a time rate, or from a time rate to
a piece rate, but in no case shall any employee be deprived of an}^ of
the benefits received under the provisions of this Code, nor shall his
full time weekly compensation be reduced by such change. No mem-
ber of the Industry shall reclassify the duties or occupation of an
employee so as to defeat the purposes of the Act or of this Code.

Article V is hereby amended by adding thereto a paragraph num-
bered 8, to read as follows :

8, Any member of the Industry, either an individual owner, mem-
ber of a partnership or corporation, performing the duties of an
employee shall be governed by the provisions of Articles III and V
of this Code as amended.

12. No member of the Industry shall grant any term of cash dis-
count in excess of one per cent (1%) ten days, net thirty, E.O.M.,

the twenty-fifth of a month may be billed as of the 1st of the follow-
ing month. Members of the Industry may accept checks, less cash
discount, if received postmarked not later than the last day of grace.

KEPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir : This is a report on the proposed amendments to the Code of
Fair Competition for the Hardwood Distillation Industry as ap-
proved by you on November 10, 1933. A public hearing was held on
May 23, 1934, in Washington, D. C, on several amendments including
amendment No. 1. Amendments Nos. 2 and 3 were considered by the
Industry through three regional meetings. Full opportunity to be
heard was given to all interested parties.

This report covers only one of the amendments proposed at the
public hearing and the amendment pertaining to Forest Conserva-
tion. The additional amendments proposed at the public hearing
will be submitted for approval as soon as further necessary considera-
tion can be given to same.

The purposes and effects of the amendments are as follows :

Amendment No. 1 enables the Code Authority to incur such reason-
able obligations as are necessary for the administration of the Code.
It requires that the Code Authority submit for approval of the Ad-
ministrator 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 Code
Authority by members of the Industry is made mandatory by this
amendment if their principal line of business is covered by this Code.

Amendment No. 2 provides general policy for Forest Conservation
on the part of the Code Authority for the Hardwood Distillation
Industry in accordance with the Administration's policy as covered
in Office Memorandum No. 212, dated May 24, 1934.

Amendment No. 3 provides that the Code Authority shall estab-
lish forest practice rules and regulations subject to the approval of
the Administrator within sixty days after approval of this amend-
ment. The Divisions of the Industry are to submit, through the
Code Authority, to the Administrator for his approval these forest
practice rules and regulations.

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 :

(378)

379

Article IV establishes a Code Authority of nine members, consist-
ing of eight members to be elected by the Board of Directors of the
Industrial Alcohol Institute and one representative of the members
of the Industry who are not members of the Institute. The repre-
sentative of the non-members of the Industrial Alcohol Institute may
be elected by such members by a fair method of selection subject to
the approval of the Administrator or appointed by the Administrator
if they fail to elect. In addition to the above, the Administrator
may appoint not more than three Administration Members who are
to serve on the Code Authority without vote and without expense to
the Industry.

Article V provides the trade practice provisions which shall apply
to the Industrial Alcohol Industry. Some of these provisions aimed
at correcting the destructive price competition existing in this Indus-
try have received a great deal of consideration in order to harmonize
them with Administration policy.

The provisions concerning the open filing of prices are in accord
with the Administration's policy as announced on June 7, 1934.

Section 2 of Article V provides as follows :

"Inasmuch as certain products of the Hardwood Distillation In-
dustry, namely, methyl alcohol for anti-freeze, are used for identical
anti-freeze purposes, as ethyl, isopropyl and various types of methyl
alcohol as covered by this Code, the filing of prices on the last named
products under this Code, and all other provisions of Article V
hereof, are not to become effective until and unless a provision for the
filing of prices of the above named products which are covered b}^
the Hardwood Distillation Industry Code, and the embodying of the
other provisions of Article V hereof, are incorporated in that Code.
When this is accomplished prices filed under each code shall be ex-
changed under the same conditions as outlined above insofar as they
aj)ply to both the above named classes of products."

The reason for this provision is explained therein. Obviously
the open filing of prices by the Industrial Alcohol Industry on
products which are directly competitive with almost identical prod-
ucts produced by the Hardwood Distillation Industry would not
be of any aid to them in reducing or knowing about destructive
price competition unless the open filing of prices were adopted also
by the Hardwood Distillation Industry for the products referred
to. For the same reason the other fair trade practices are not to
become effective in respect to the products of the Industrial Alcohol
Industry which are competitive with methyl alcohol sold for anti-
freeze by the Hardwood Distillation Industry unless the other trade
practice provisions specified in Article V are also adopted by the
Hardwood Distillation Industry.

The Code Authority of the Hardwood Distillation Industry has
conferred with the Code Committee of the Industrial Alcohol In-
dustry and they were also represented at the public hearing on the
Code for the Industrial Alcohol Industry. It is understood that
as soon as the Code for the Industrial Alcohol Industry is approved
the Code Authority of the Hardwood Distillation Industry will
consider the fair trade practice provisions of the Code for the
Industrial Alcohol Industry with a view to taking whatever action

AMENDMENT TO CODE OF FAIR COMPETITION FOR
THE HARDWOOD DISTILLATION INDUSTRY

Amendment 1. Delete Section 2 of Paragraph A of Article VI,
Administration and substitute therefor the following:

"2 (a) It being necessary to support the Administration of this
Code, in order to effectuate the policy of the Act and to maintain
the standards of fair competition established hereunder, the Code
Authority is authorized:

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

EEPOKT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir: The Code Authority for the Cotton Garment Industry sub-
mitted on May 4, 1934, a proposed amendment to the Code of Fair
Comjjetition for the Cotton Garment Industry. The amendment
when submitted was presented to the Legal Division of the National
Recovery Administratioi^ and received its approval.

As the amendment was short and simple and consistent with the
policies of the Administration, a Public Hearing was considered not
necessary and in lieu of the Public Hearing, Notices of Opportunity
to be Heard were printed and distributed in the same manner as the
Notice of Public Hearing. A specified date was set forth in such
notice by which time objections and criticisms were to be received
relative to the amendment. Up to and including the dates specified
in such notice, no objections or criticisms were received.

In its final form the amendment received the approval of the
Industrial Advisory Board, the Labor Advisory Board, the Legal
Division and the report of the Consumers' Advisory Board and
Research and Planning Division of the National Recovery Adminis-
tration. The amendment provides that the Code Authority may
incorporate and be known as the Cotton Garment Code Authority,
Incorporated.

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 ob-
structions 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 industry for the pur-
pose 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 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 limita-
tion Subsecton (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of Section 7, and
Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof.

(384)

385

(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, these amendments have been approved.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Administrator.

LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL

The President,

The 'White House.

Sir: On June 18, 1934, a public hearing was called to consider
amendments to the Code of Fair Competition for the Dress Manu-
facturing Industry, the Code of Fair Competition for the Men's
Clothing Industry, and the Code of Fair Competition for the Cot-
ton Garment Industry. These amendments to the Cotton Garment
Code are part of the results of this hearing.

The hearing showed no material reemployment by this Industry
subsequent to the effective date of the Code, which contained a pro-
vision arbitrarily fixing a work week of forty hours. The forty hour
work week of the Cotton Garment Industry Code has resulted in
unfair competition between members of the apparel industry under
it and members under other apparel codes which have provisions for
thirty-five and thirty-six hour work weeks.

To bring about more reemployment and correct the unfair compe-
tition existing because of the forty hour work week of the Cotton
Garment Code, and effectuate the purposes of the Act, it is necessary
to make a reduction to thirty-six hours, and, at the same time, make
a proportionate increase in the pay of employees so as to maintain
the same weekly wage rate as is provided in the Code as approved
November 17, 1933.

The Industry has given its assent to all of those amendments with
the exception of the ones relating to hours, (Section A of xVrticle
III, reducing the maximum hours to 36), and wages, (Sections A
and B of Article IV, making the proportionate increase in the basic
wage). Bj^ refusing to assent to the hour and wage provisions, the
Industry has made it necessary for the amendments to be submitted
to you for approval.

These amendments are in five parts as follows :

Part 1 eliminates a provision of Article II, Section (a) which
gives the Administrator the right to hold such hearings as he may
deem necessary in order to determine whether the definition of prod-
ucts of the Industry may be modified or eliminated. This deleted
provision has served its purpose and is therefore being eliminated.

Part 2 amends Article III of the Code. Three sections (a), (b)
and (d) having served their purpose in the Code are deleted and a
new section (a) is added so as to provide for a 36 hour work week
for manufacturing emploA^ees instead of a 40 hour work week in the
Code as heretofore approved.

Part 3 amends Article IV of the Code. Several sections hav-
ing served their purposes in the Code are deleted and four new.
secticms are added. New section (a) provides for a minimum wage
of Twelve ($12.00) Dollars per week for the Southern Area and a

(388)

389

minimum wage of Thirteen ($13.00) Dollars per week for the
Northern Area. It further provides that emploj-ees shall be paid
at least the same wage per Aveek of 36 hours as was paid for the
week of 40 hours, and further, that piece rates shall be increased by
not less than ten (10%) percent above the piece work rate prevailing
as of May 1, 1934.

New section (b) provides that in the Sheep-Lined and Leather
Garment Industry manufacturing employees are to be paid at a
minimum wage of Fourteen ($14.00) Dollars per week, and further
provides a specified minima to be paid skilled workers, and that
piece rates shall be increased by not less than ten (10%) percent over
and above the piece work rates prevailing as of May 1, 1934,

New section (c) provides a minimum wage to be paid learners
employed in the Industry.

New section (e) provides that handicapped employees may be
employed on light work at a wage below the minimum established
by the Code.

Part 4 contains new provisions to be added to the Code which are
pursuant to recent policy rulings of the Administration relative to
destructive price cutting and cost finding.

Part 5 is a new provision of the Code providing for an Industrial
Committee to study all applications for exemption from provisions
of the Code, by individual manufacturers, and to grant such exemp-
tions subject to the disapproval by the Administrator.

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 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 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
purchasing power, by reducing and relieving unemplo;fment, by im-
proving 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 (b) of Section 10
thereof.

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

"(d) 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.

390

"(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
amendments."

For these reasons these amendments are recommended for your
approval.

Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Admmistrator.

Article XI is hereby amended to include Section D which shall
read as follows :

" D. The Standards of Fair Competition for the Industry with
reference to pricing practices are declared to be as follows : "

"1. (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-
plain to the Code Authority that any quoted price constitutes unfair
competition as destructive price cutting, imperiling small enterprise
or tending toward monopoly or the impairment of code wages and
working conditions.

" The Code Authority shall within five (5) days afford an oppor-
tunity to the member quoting 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 int-ended that
sound cost estimating methods should be used and that consideration
should be given to costs in the determination of pricing policies.

393

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

"'2. Emergency Provisions. — (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 a stated minimum price for a specified
product witliin the Industry for a limited period is necessary to miti-
gate 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 determination of a stated minimum price of the product affected
by the emergency and thereupon the Administrator 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 In-
dustrial 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
reconsideration or the Administrator may cause any determination
hereunder to be reviewed or reconsidered and appropriate action
taken."

" 3. Cost Finding. — The Code Authority shall cause to be formu-
lated methods of cost finding and accounting capable of use by all
mem.bers 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 Indus-
try shall utilize such methods to the extent found practicable. Noth-
ing herein contained shall be construed to permit the Code Authority,
any agent thereof, or any member of the Industry to suggest uniform
additions, percentages of differentials or other uniform items of cost
which are designed to bring about arbitrary uniformity of costs or
prices."

Article XV shall be amended as follows:

The section presently known as Section B shall be known as Sec-
tion C and a new section shall be inserted in said Article to be known
as Section B as follows :

" B. A Committee is hereby established to be known as the Indus-
trial Committee, to be appointed by the Administrator on the nom-
ination of the following: Three members by the Code Authority to
represent the Industry and three members by the Labor Advisory
Board of which one shall be without Union affiliation. The six so
selected shall select a Chairman to be approved by the Adminis-
trator. The powers and duties of this committee shall be as follows :

394

"All applications for exceptions and/or exemptions from any of
the provisions of this Code shall be considered by the Committee
hereby established and the Committee shall make such determina-
tions as it may deem proper and necessary after due consideration.

" 1. The Industrial Committee shall forward to the Administrator
any and all of its determinations, and its reasons therefor, within
twenty-four (24) hours of the time of such determinations, which
shall become effective five (5) days after the date of receipt thereof
by the Administrator, unless prior thereto disapproved by the Ad-
ministrator, subject, however, to the further order of the Adminis-
trator. All decisions of the Industrial Committee shall be posted at
the office of the Cotton Garment Code Authority at a place regularly
designated for such purpose, together with a notice that all parties
objecting thereto may file their objections with the Administrator.

" 2. The Industrial Committee in making determinations on any
of the labor provisions of this Code shall be bound by the following :

"(a) Any overtime period granted to any member of the Industry
shall be upon the condition that time and one-half shall be paid to
any employee who works in excess of the maximum hours permitted
herein pursuant to the determination of the Industrial Committee.
In cases of undue hardship created by virtue of this provision, the
Committee may up to forty (40) hours per week grant this exception
at the regular hourly rate.

" 3. The Industrial Committee shall make determinations promptly
upon receipt of exemptions and/or exceptions and shall within
twenty-four (24) hours after decision report its findings to the mem-
bers of the Industry making such applications."

REPOKT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir : This is a report on a modification of the Code of Fair Com-
petition for the Paper Distributing Trade which was approved by
you December 23, 1933.

The effect of this Amendment will enable the Code Authority to
submit a Budget and Basis of Assessment and give it the power to
institute legal proceedings, if necessary, for the collection of said
assessments.

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 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 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
unemployment, by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise
rehabilitating 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 7
and sub-section (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.

(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 those reasons this modification has been approved.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Ad7ninistrator.

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir: This is a report on the proposed amendment to the Code of
Fair Competition for the Photo-Engraving Industry as approved by
you on December 23, 1933. The proposed amendment is to be known
as Sub-section (f) of Article VII, Section 7. It was noticed for
Opportunity to be Heard on June 23, 1934. No criticisms of, objec-
tions to or suggestions concerning this amendment were submitted
to the Administration within the time limit allowed by the Notice
of Opportunity to be Heard, which expired on July 6, 1934.

The amendment gives the Code Authority under the Photo-
Engraving Code the power to collect assessments, and makes it a
violation of the Code for an establishment to fail to pay such assess-
ments when the budget and basis of contribution of a Code Authority
has been approved by the Administrator.

The proposed amendment does not in any way affect the labor
provisions of the Photo-Engraving Code.

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 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 floAv of interstate and foreign commerce which tend
to diminish the amount thereof, and will provide for the general
welfare by promoting the organization of industry for the purpose
of cooperative action of labor and management under adequate 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
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.

(c) The Photo-Engraving Code Authority was and is the highest
governing body of the Photo-Engraving Code and truly representa-
tive of the aforesaid industry, and has applied for this amendment.

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

(404)

405

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

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

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.

MODIFICATION TO CODE OF FAIR COMPETITION FOR
THE PHOTO-ENGRAVING INDUSTRY

The modification proposed in such application is to be known as
Sub-section (f) of Article VII, Section 7, and is as follows:

(a) To incur such reasonable obligations as are necessary and

shall be held in trust for the purposes of the Code ;

(b) To submit to the Administrator for his approval, subject to
such notice and opportunity to be heard as he may deem necessary

ity, determined as hereinabove provided, and subject to rules and

I find that:

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 gen-
eral welfare by promoting the organization of industry for the pur-
pose 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 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 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

petition for the Retail Trade was held on May 4, 1934, at the May-
flower Hotel. The amendments, which are attached, were presented
by duly qualified and authorized representatives of the Trade, com-
plying with statutory requirements, such representatives being the
members of the National Retail Code Authority, Inc.

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

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 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
unemployment, by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise
rehabilitating industry.

(d) 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.

(e) 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
Amendments.

For these reasons I have approved said amendments to the Code
of Fair Competition for the Retail Trade.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

Administrator.

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir: This is a report on the amendment to the Code of Fair
Competition for the Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel, and Slag
Industries as approved by you November 10, 1938, This amendment
was submitted June 20, 1934 by the Code Authority for the Crushed
Stone, Sand and Gravel, and Slag Industries, and a public hearing
thereon was conducted July 17, 1934 in Washington, D.C.

The National Crushed Stone Association, Inc., The National Sand
and Gravel Association, Inc., The National Slag Association, the
National Association of Portable Stone, Sand and Gravel Producers,
and the Associated General Contractors of America, Inc., either
participated in the hearing or join with the Code Authority in
sponsoring the amendment.

This amendment was proposed pursuant to Executive Order No.
6678 dated April 14, 1934 and to my Administrative Order No.
X-36, dated May 26, 1934. The amendment has since been revised,
with the assent of the Code Authority, in accordance with sugges-
tions made by the Legal Division.

The primary purpose of the amendment is to govern the collec-
tion of contributions for Code maintenance by the Code Authority
of the Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel, and Slag Industries, and
by various administrative committees set up under the Code. This
purpose is carried out particularly in Amendment No. 8, which will
make unnecessary the " registered producer " as created in the ap-
proved Code. The other nine amendments are intended to eliminate
various references to " registered producers " and in other ways to
make effective Amendment No. 8.

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 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 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 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

(424)

425

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 eliminate or oppress small enterprises and will not
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 amendment.

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

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
Feldspar Industry, submitted by the Code Authority for the said
Industry.

The existint^ provision of Article V, Section 5 (d) 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 amendment to Article V of said Code,
the provisions of which follow closely the text of the above men-
tioned Orders, will overcome the existino- inadequate provisions.

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 the proceedings in this matter :

I find that :

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

general welfare by promoting the organization of industry for the

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 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 perti-
nent provision 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 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.

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White Home.

Sir: This is a report on the Hearing on an amendment to the
Code of Fair Competition for the Novelty Curtains, Draperies,
Bedspreads and Novelty Pillows Industry, held in Room 2062,
Department of Commerce Building, on May 31, 1934. The amend-
ment, which is attached, was presented by the Domestic Decorative
Linens Association, Inc., said to represent more tlian 80% by vol-
ume of production and 60% by number of concerns in the Domestic
Decorative Linen Industry.

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

This amendment brings within the definition of the Code the
Domestic Decorative Linens Industry. The Industry comprises
approximately thirty-five (35) concerns having an investment in
1933 of $1,100,000. "in 1929 the Industry provided employment for
2,200 workers. This figure had declined to 1,750 employees in 1933
before the President's Reemplojanent Agreement and approximately
1,800 emploj^ees after the President's Reemployment Agreement.
Aggregate annual sales fell from $6,250,000 in 1928 to $4,750,000 in
1931. Sales for the year 1933 increased to about $5,500,000.

According to the testimony at the Hearing ther£ are a number of
concerns in the Industry paying as low as $9.00 a week for forty
(40) hours of work. The minimum wage under the Code is $.325
per hour or $13.00 per week. It is claimed that the effect of coming
under this Code will be to increase employment by approximately
300 workers.

The amendment, besides changing the definition of the Industry
to include domestic decorative linens, sets up a Committee to admin-
ister the fair trade practice provisions for this branch of the
Industry and includes two additional fair trade practices to apply
only to domestic decorative linens manufacturers. .

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 the proceedings in this matter :

I find that :.

welfare by promoting tlie organization of industry for the purpose
of comparative 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-
])etitive 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 reliev-
ing unemployment, by improving standards of labor, and hj other-
wise rehabilitating industry.

(c) The applicant association is an industrial association truly
representative of the aforesaid Domestic Decorative Linens Industry
and said association imposes no inequitable restrictions on admission
to membership therein. The Code empowers the Code Authority
to assent to the aforesaid amendment on behalf of the Industry as
a whole.

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

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

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

For the above reasons this amendment has been approved by me.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

AdTninistrator.

Sir: An application has been dul}' made pursuant to and in full

The purpose and effect of the amendment are to authorize the

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 agricultural prod-
ucts through increasing purchasing power, by reducing and relieving
unemployment, by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise
rehabilitating industry.

(c) The Code empowers the Code Authority to present the afore-
said amendment on behalf of the Savings, Building and Loan
Associations subject to the Code.

KEPOKT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir: This is a report on the Code of Labor Provisions for the-
Wine Industry of the United States. The Code was revised after
the Public Hearing held in San Francisco, California, on February
20, 1934. Other revisions have been made since the Public Hearing:
held in Washington, D.C., on March 12, 1934, in accordance with^
the provisions of the National Industrial Recovery Act.

The Fair Trade Practice Provisions for this Industry were ap-
proved by the President on December 27, 1933.

PROVISIONS OF THE CODE

The plan for the organization and constitution of the Code Aui--
thority for this Code of Labor Provisions is substantially the same-
as that plan in the Code of Fair Competition for this industry,
which Code was approved by the President, December 27, 1933,.
and is under the jurisdiction of the Federal Alcohol Control Ad-
ministration. For reasons of economy, and for the purpose of
coordination, it was agreed that the adoption of this plan might
make it possible for the members of the Code Authority for the
Code of Fair Competition to be elected as the Code Authority
Members for this Code of Labor Provisions.

No employee shall be permitted to work in excess of forty (40)
hours in any one week or nine (9) hours in any one day or six
(6) days in any seven (7) day period, with an exemption during
the vintage season for those employees defined in Article III, Section
2 and Subsections (a) and (b). The vintage season covers a period
of approximately twelve (12) weeks each year.

Exemptions are made for executive, supervisory, and technical
employees receiving thirty-five dollars ($35.00) or more per week,
and junior technical employees receiving twenty-five dollars ($25.00)
or more per week, who do not constitute more than two per cent
(2%) of the total number of employees and are limited to one year
in this classification.

Until such time as trained personnel is available which will re-
lieve the shortage of champagne handlers, employees classified
as disgorgers, shakers, chuckers, and finishing crews, are permitted
to work not in excess of forty-eight (48) hours in any one week;
provided that all such employment is reported to the appropriate
Code Committee as defined in Article VI.

Watchmen maj^ be permitted to work a maximum of fift^^-six
(56) hours per week, provided, however, that such employees shall
not be permitted to work more than thirteen (13) days in any four-
teen (14) day period.

(460)

461

Chauffeurs and deli verymen shall not be permitted to work more
than forty-eight (48) hours per week of six (6) days in any seven (7)
day period.

When it becomes necessary to operate a plant continuously to
prevent spoilage, employees engaged in the processing of wine shall
not be permitted to work in excess of forty-eight (48) hours in any
six (6) day of a seven (7) day period. In such emergency all hours
worked in excess of forty (40) hours shall be reported monthly to
the appropriate Code Committee.

Office employees are to be paid on a basis of sixteen dollars ($16.00)
per week, with a differential of two dollars ($2.00) for office boys
and messengers.

Watchmen are to be paid, sixteen dollars ($16.00) per week.

Employees engaged in such light work as labeling, wrapping,
;,and finishing of bottles shall be paid not less than thirty-five cents
(350) an hour. Such work is generally performed by females.

No employees other than office boys, messengers, and those per-
forming light work shall be paid at a rate of less than forty cents
.(400) per hour, and in no case shall full time weekly wages be reduced
,as a result of the adoption of this Code.

There is.no geographic wage differential in this Code.

THE INDUSTRY

The Wine Industry operates under permits issued by the Federal

^Government. It is estimated that from 40,000,000 to 45,000,000
gallons of wine will be produced in 1934. Statistics show that before
prohibition about 52,000,000 gallons were produced annually. Dur-
ing the prohibition period approximately 700,000 gallons of wine
were produced annually.

There are about 500 wineries in the United States, the majority of
which are located in California, in which State is made ninety per

<cent (90%) of all wine produced in this country. There are about

.2,500 workers engaged in the Wine Industry.

There are no available data at this time showing the value of the
wine produced in this country in 1933 or the present estimated

. amount of the payrolls of 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 proceed-
ings of 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 tlie amount thereof and will provide
for the general welfare ])y 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 practices, by promoting the fullest
possible utilization of the restriction of production (except as may

'be temporarily required), and 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.

462

(b) Said Industry normally emploj^s 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 limi-
tation Subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of Section 7,.
and Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof; and that the Eastern Wine-
Growers Association and the Western Wine Growers Association
are both industrial associations truly representative of the aforesaid
Industry; and that said associations impose no inequitable restric-
tions on admission to membership therein.

(cl) 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,

Admuiistraiov.
August 18, 1934.

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.
Sir: This is a report of the Hearing on the Supplemental Code

ing Trade, conducted in Room 127, Willard Hotel, at 10 a.m., May
14, 1934. The Supplemental Code, which is attached, was presented
by a duly qualified and authorized representative of the Trade, com-
plying with the statutory requirements.

THE TRADE

According to statistics furnished by members of the Charcoal and
Package Fuel Distributing Trade, it is estimated that there are
approximately 400 concerns; the aggregate invested capital is ap-
proximately $10,000,000 with aggregate annual sales of $40,000,000.
The Trade employs 10,000 persons.

HOURS AND WAGES

The Supplemental labor provisions establish a maximum thirty-
two (32) hour work week between May 1 and October 1; a maxi-
mum forty (40) hour work week between October 1 and May 1,
and a wage of forty-five (45^.) cents per hour.

OTHER PRO^nSIONS OF THE CODE

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 Practice supplemental provisions 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

(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 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 trade

(474)

475

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 tem-
porarily 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 Trade normalW employs not more than 50,000 employees
and it is not classified b}^ me as a major industry.

(c) The Supplemental Code as approved complies in all respects
with the pertinent ]jrovisions 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 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 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 the approval of this
Supplemental Code.

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

Hugh S. Johnson,

j Article VII — Unfair Trade Practices

l' SUPPLEMENTING ARTICLE Vll OF THE GENERAL CODE

. The following are declared to be unfair trade practices and are
prohibited :

1. To borrow, lend, purchase, sell or use the bags, packages or
containers of any other member of the Trade or of any other con-
cern or form of enterprise ; and each member of the Trade is required
to haA^e his or its container with his or its name and address, con-
tents and quantity clearly printed thereon so as to be readily identi-
iied; no individual firm, corporation or other form of enterprise
shall make any sales or deliveries of any package fuels in any con-
tainers but their own.

2. To brand, mark or pack any goods, or use any brands, trade
marks, designs or color combinations, on any delivery equipment,
containers or uniforms of employees, or otherwise, in connection with

parage the grade or quality of his goods.

or to deliver a mixture of sizes with intent to deceive the consumer.

Article VIII — Costs and Price Cutting

1. The standards of fair competition for the Trade 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.

(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 consider-
ation should be given to costs in the determination of pricing policies.

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

2. Emergency Provisions. — {a) If the Administrator after investi-
gation shall at any time find both (1) that an emergency has arisen
within the Trade adversely affecting small enterprises or wages or
labor conditions, or tending toward monopoly or other acute condi-
tions which tend to defeat the purposes of the Act; and (2) that the
determination of the stated minimum price for a specified product

483

within the Trade for a limited period is necessary to mitigate the
conditions constituting such emergency and to effectuate the purposes
of the Act, the Divisional Code Authority 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.

(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 Recovery Act, he shall publish such price. Thereafter, during
such stated period, no member of the Trade 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 Divisional Code Authority may recommend review
or reconsideration or the Administrator may cause any determina-
tions hereunder to be reviewed or reconsidered and appropriate ac-
tion taken.

3. Cost Finding. — The Divisional Code Authority shall cause to>
be formulated methods of cost finding and accounting capable of use
by all members of the Trade, 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 Trade. Thereafter, each member of the Trade
shall utilize such methods to the extent found practicable. Nothing
herein contained shall be construed to permit the Divisional Code
Authority, any agent thereof, or any member of the Trade to sug-
gest uniform additions, percentages or differentials or other uniform
items of cost which are designed to bring about arbitrary uniformity
of costs or prices.

Article IX — Modificatign

This Supplemental Code and all the provisions thereof are ex-
pressly made subject to the right of the President in accordance

Code of Fair Competition for the Marble Contracting Industry

A DIVISION OF the CONSTRUCTION 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, and pursuant to and in full
compliance with the provisions of Section 5 of Article VIII of
Chapter I of the Code of Fair Competition for the Construction
Industry, approved January 31, 1934, for approval of Chapter
XVII of said Code, which Chapter XVII is applicable to the
Marble Contracting Division of the Construction Industry, and
hearings have been held thereon 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 Industrial Recovery.

Approval recommended:
Geo. L. Berry,

Division Administrator.

Washington, D.C,

August 11, 1931^.

(485)

KEPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.

Sir: This is a report on the Marble Contracting Chapter of the
Code of Fair Competition for the Construction Industry, which is
described as Chapter I and which was approved by you on January
31, 1934.

This Chapter is a revision after a public hearing conducted in
Washington on September 8, 1933, in accordance with provisions of
the National Industrial Recovery Act. This Chapter amplifies
Chapter I but applies specifically to the Marble Contracting Division
of the Construction Industry.

PROVISIONS FOR HOURS AND WAGES

The hours and wages set forth in Chapter I of the Construction
Code as approved by you on January 31, 1934, are applicable to this
Code with very minor exceptions. These exceptions have to do prin-
cipally with payment of wages.

ECONOMIC EFFECT OF THE CODE

Available statistics do not segregate employment for the stone
industries, but as fully seventy per cent of all marble quarried is
used in the Construction Industry, it is reasonable to suppose that
this Industry is suffering practically in direct proportion to the Con-
struction Industry, in which latter Industry employment is at an
exceptionally low ebb. It is reasonable to predict that the establish-
ment of uniform rates of pay, uniform hours of work, improved con-
ditions of employment, and a prohibition of unfair trade practices
will be beneficial to all of this Industry, as well as to the employees
and the consumers.

FINDINGS

The Deputy Administrator, in his final report to me on said
Marble Contracting Chapter 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 find that:

(a) Said Marble Contracting Chapter and said Code of Fair Com-
petition for the Construction Industry, as supplemented by said
Marble Contracting Chapter, are 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 interstate
and foreign commerce which tend to diminish the amount thereof
and will provide for the general welfare by promoting the organiza-

(486)

487

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) Said Marble Contracting Chapter and the Code of Fair Com-
petition for the Construction Industry, as supplemented by said
Marble Contracting Chapter, as approved comply 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
aforesaid Industry ; and that said Association imposes no inequitable
restrictions on admission to membership therein.

(d) Said Marble Contracting Chapter and the Code of Fair Com-
petition for the Construction Industry, as supplemented by said
Marljle Contracting Chapter, are not designed to and will not permit
monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(e) Said Marble Contracting Chapter and the Code of Fair Com-
petition for the Construction Industry, as supplemented by said
Marble Contracting 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 approval of said
Marble Contracting Chapter and of said Code, as supplemented by
this Marble Contracting Chapter thereof.

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved said Marble Con-
tracting Chapter of the Code of Fair Competition of the Construction
Industry.

Respectfully,

Huc^H S. Johnson,

A dministrator.

petitive. Should no other bids on the same job be received, the
Commissioner shall keep the whole matter confidential, but should
other bids on the same job be received, the Commissioner shall
notify all the bidders of the facts excluding any information which
is herein prevented from being disclosed in connection with competi-
tive bids, and the matter shall be treated as a case of competitive
bidding.

bid is submitted on the same material, the facts of the submission
of this bid and the name of the bidder shall be disclosed to the

alternative bid shall be treated in the same way as a single bid.

Section 11. A Single Bid Does Not Constitute Gomfetition. —

for additional ones, additional bids may be submitted on a new
closing date as though no bidding had occurred.

bid as submitted. All bidders shall be free to give the person who
has the letting of the contract, figures for omissions, additions and
changes; all, however, to be figui-ed on the same basis as that used
in preparing their bids. If a contract is awarded on a competitive
job after negotiations of this sort, or on the basis of an alternative
bid not disclosed, the bidder receiving the contract shall immediately
send a certified copy of the contract to the Commissioner, and shall
certify that the changes have been figured on the same basis as his
bid.

(b) If no changes have been made, and the contract is awarded
at the total amount of one of the bids, the successful bidder shall

work has been awarded, the successful bidder shall send a cer-
tified copy of the contract to the Commissioner.

the bids on which such contracts are based, and report to the
Divisional Code Authority any material variation from the terms
thereof,

10 of this Article.

Section 14. Withdraiml of Bids. — (a) Bidders may state in their
bids the time limit after the closing date within which the bid
must be acted upon and no bidder shall withdraw his bid, except
;as herein provided, within such time limit. In case no such time

497

limit is stated within the bid, no bidder shall withdraw his bid
for a period of thirty (30) days after the closing date,

(b) Exceptions. — A bona-fide error shall be grounds for with-
drawal of bids, provided that in cases of bidding to general con-
tractors, or the equivalent thereof, notice of withdrawal must be
delivered to all persons to whom such bids were sent at least four
(4) hours in advance of the closing date (day and hour) appli-
cable to general contractors' bids, and a bid so withdrawn shall not
be replaced witli another bid.

Section 15. New Bidding on Revised Plans and Specifications. —
Except as provided in Section 12, bids shall not be submitted on
the same plans and specifications for a period of ten (10) months
after the closing date, and after a set of competitive bids has been
submitted ; but if bids are rejected, and new bids invited on revised
plans and specifications, the following provisions shall apply with
respect to the submission of bids by members of the Division:

(a) If the revisions are in quantities of marble only, and the
total change does not amount to more than twenty-five (25) per cent
of the total quantity of marble originally called for, no member of
the Division who did not submit a bid on the original plans and
specifications shall bid upon such revised plans and specifications;

(b) If the revisions involve changes in the kind of marble only
and such revisions do not involve changing more than twenty-five
(25) per cent of the quantity originally called for, no member of
the Division who did not submit a bict on the original plans and
specifications shall bid upon such revised plans and specifications;

(c) If quantities are changed, and the kinds of marble are also
changed, and if the sum of the changes does not amount to more
than twenty -five (25) per cent of the quantity of marble called
for. no member of the Division who did not submit a bid on the
original plans and specifications shall bid upon such revised plans
and specifications ;

(d) Wh«n bids are submitted on revised plans and specifications,
involving changes in the kind of marble, if a kind of marble called
for in the plans and specifications previously bid upon is included
in the revised plans and specifications as an alternate, without
changes in quantities thereof amounting to twenty-five (25) per
cent or more, no member of the Division who did not submit a bid
on such kind of marble in the original plans and specifications
shall submit a bid on such kind of marble so included in the revised
plans and specifications as an alternate, provided that this rule
shall not apply unless the description contained in the original
plans and specifications of the marble in question is specific as to
grade. A mere general specification of a marble from a given
locality, where a number of grades and kinds are produced, shall
not be sufficient to make this rule operative.

Section 16. Original Bidders. — Except as provided in Section
15, for a period of ten (10) months after the closing date members
of the Division who originally submitted bids shall be the only
ones permitted to submit bids on the same job to any additional

KEPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White Home.
Sir: This is a report on the Supplemental Code of Fair Compe-
tition for the Pulp and Paper Machinery Subdivision of Machinery
and Allied Products Industry, a public hearing on which was held
in AVashington, D.C., on May 10, 1934. The hearing was con-
ducted in full accordance with the provisions of Title I of the
National Industrial Recovery Act.

GENERAL STATEMENT

The Pulp and Paper Machinery Subdivision, being truly repre-
sentative of the manufacturers 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 the second
paragraph of Article I in the Code of Fair Competition for the
Machinery and Allied Products Industry, approved by you on the
seventeenth day of March, 1934.

The Subdivision includes the manufacture for sale of machinery
and equipment used directly in the processing of pulp and paper
in pulp mills, paper mills, and paper converting and processing
establishments and/or specially designed parts therefor, except
paper machines, beaters and jordans and any other machinery and
equipment and/or parts thereof produced under the provisions of
any other code of fair competition or any other subdivision of this
Basic Code heretofore approved, and is intended to include all
those engaged in such manufacture for sale.

ECONOMIC EFFECT

It is estimated that this Subdivision in 1929 employed approxi-
mately 1,250 persons. This estimate is based on data contained in
National Recovery Administration questionnaires.

According to a summary of questionnaires returned by fifteen
members of the Subdivision, factory employment declined 60.4
per cent from 1929 to the first quarter of 1933. An increase in
employment of 11.4 per cent was noted from June, 1933 to Novem-
ber, 1933. Employment in November, 1933 was approximately 35
per cent below the 1929 level.

Annual sales of the Subdivision, based on National Recovery Ad-
ministration questionnaire returns, fourteen concerns reporting, de-
clined from $6,743,000 in 1929 to $2,223,000 in 1933, or 67 per cent.

Approximately 64.9 per cent of the workers were employed more
than 40 hours per week during a representative week of June 1933.
The average work-week declined from 47.5 hours in June 1929 to
43.7 hours in June 1933, and 38.6 hours in November, 1933.

(502)

503

Man-hours per week declined 45.3 per cent from June, 1929 to
November, 1933. The decline from June 1933 to November 1933
was 1.6 per cent. Due to the fact that the Subdivision in November
1933 was operating on an average of 38.6 hours per week, little
increase in employment may be expected as a result of the adoption
of a 40-hour week.

Approximately 31.5 per cent of the factory workers employed in
June, 1933 were receiving less than 40 cents per hour; 28.3 per cent
were receiving less than 38 cents per hour; 25.1 per cent were
receiving less than 36 cents per hour; and 16.0 per cent were receiv-
ing less than 32 cents per hour. Based on the distribution of
hourly rates for June, 1933 the adoption of the minimum wage
rates provided by the code will effect a concomitant increase in total
payrolls of approximately 6.0 per cent, assuming upward adjust-
ment in the brackets below the 40-cent minimum only and no change
in man-hour requirements.

RESUME OF SUPPLEMENTAL CODE

Article I states the purpose of the Supplemental Code.

Article II accurately defines specific terms applicable to the Sub-
division as used in this Supplemental Code.

Article III provides for the adoption of the employment provi-
sions of the Code of Fair Competition for the Machinery and
Allied Products Industry, as approved by you, and as from time to
time amended.

Article IV provides for the adoption of Articles II, VI and VIII
of the Code of Fair Competition for the Machinery and Allied
Products Industry.

Article V provides for the establishment of a Code Authority
and defines its powers and duties.

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

Article VII provides that no products of the Subdivision shall be
sold or offered for sale below a reasonable cost when the Code
Authority determines that an emergency exists.

Article VIII sets forth trade practices for the Subdivision.

Article IX states that no provision of this Supplemental Code
relating to pricing and marketing shall apply to export sales.

Article X provides that this Supplemental Code and all the
provisions thereof are expressly made subject to the right of the
President, in accordance 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,
the jurisdiction of the Basic Code Authority in accordance with
the provisions in this Article governing such withdrawal.

Article XI provides for the withdrawal of the Subdivision from

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

Article XIII states 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 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 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 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 per-
mit 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 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.

Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

A dnvmistrator.

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-

508

tive 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 the products of this Subdivision, such determination to be
subject to such notice and hearing as the Administrator may require.
The Administration ma}^ approve, disapprove, or modify the determi-
nation. 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 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 (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 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 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 innnediately to all employers manufacturing products
of equivalent design, character, quality or specifications, who may
sell such products at prices and (jn terms and conditions as favorable
as those stipulated in the proposed 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 reported to the
Code Authority his intention so to sell, and the facts as to the
competition which justifies such action.

Article VIII — Unfair Trade Practices

The following are hereby declared to be unfair trade practices and
are violations of this Supplemental Code, viz :

1. No employer of the Subdivision shall secretly offer or make
any payment or allowance of a rebate, refund, commission credit,
unearned discount or excess allowance, whether in the form of money
or otherwise, nor shall an employer of the Subdivision secretly

extended to all customers of the same class, for the purpose of
influencing a sale.

2. No employer of the Subdivision shall give, permit to be given,
or offer to give, anything of value for the purpose of influencing

the principal of such agent or the represented party, without the
knowledge of such employer, principal or party. This provision

articles commonly used for advertising except so far as such articles
are actually used for commercial bribery as hereinabove defined.

3. No emploj'^er of the SubdiAdsion shall publish advertising

misleading or inaccurate in any material particular, nor shall any
member in any way misrepresent any goods (including but without
limitation its use, trademark, 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.

4. No emplover of the Subdivision shall indulge in destructive
price-cutting.

Article IX — Sales for Exp(;rt

The provisions of this Supplemental Code concerning pricing and
marketing are not to apply to direct export sales of any product, or
to any product destined ultimately for export. The term " export "
shall include all shipments to all places without the several states
of the United States and the District of Columbia; provided, how-
ever, that no shipment to any territory or possession of the United
States shall be considered an export when any employer is engaged
in the industry in such territory or possession.

Article X — Modifications

from time to time cancel or modify any order, approval, license,
rule, or regulation issued under Title I of the Act.

(b) Any amendments, additions, revisions, or supplements of this
Supplemental Code, proposed by Code Authority, and authorized
by the affirmative vote of 66%% of the employers shall be in full
force and effect upon approval by the President. The eligibility

affirmative vote of employers, within the said Subdivision entitled
to cast two-thirds or more of all the votes that might be cast by all
employers within the Subdivision entitled to vote thereon, withdraw
from the jurisdiction of the Basic Code Authority. The eligibility
of voters for such voting shall be in accordance with the provisions
of Section d of Article V hereof. After and in the event such with-
drawal is accomplished this Supplemental Code, together with the
provisions of the Code shall become and be the sole code governing
this Subdivision, and the Code Authority shall for this Subdivision,
become and be the sole Code Authority and shall perform all the
functions with respect thereto.

510

Article XII — Monopolies

Applicant imposes and shall impose no inequitable restrictions on

against them, and is designed to effectuate the policy of the Act.

Article XIII — Effective Date

This Supplemental Code shall become effective and binding on
all persons engaged in the Subdivision on the eleventh day after

was presented by duly qualified and authorized representatives of
the Trade, complying with the statutory requirements, said to rep-
resent 70 per cent in number and about 85 per cent in volume of
sales of the Trade which could be included in this Supplemental
Code.

THE TRADE

According to statistics compiled by the Division of Research and
Planning, there were in 1933 approximately two hundred (200) firms
engaged in the Trade employing approximately 1,400 employees in
1933 and having an invested capital of approximately $5,000,000.
No accurate figures are available concerning the annual volume of
sales but the Trade estimates that approximately $14,000,000 worth
of business was done in 1933.

HOURS AND WAGES

The hours and wages provisions of this Supplemental Code, which
provisions supplement the hours and wages provisions of the Code
of Fair Competition for the Wholesaling or Distributing Trade,
establish a maximum 40 hour work week and a minimum $15.00
weekly wage, except for necessary exceptions.

OTHER PROVISIONS OF THE CODE

The provisions containing definitions are inclusive and accurate.

The administrative provisions of the Code establish 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

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

Article VIII — Permissive Trade Practices

SUPPLEMENTING ARTICLE VIII OF THE GENERAL CODE

Section 1. Each member of the Trade shall file with a confidential
and disinterested agent of the Divisional Code Authority or, if none,
then with such an agent designated by the Administrator, identified
lists of all of his prices, discounts, rebates, allowances, and all other
terms or conditions of sale, hereinafter in this Article referred to as
' price terms ', which lists shall completely and accurately conform
to and represent the individual pricing practices of said member in
each section or region in which he operates. Such lists shall contain
the price terms for all such standard products of the Trade as are
sold or offered for sale by said member and for such non-standard
products of said member as shall be designated by the Divisional
Code Authority. Said price terms shall in the first instance be filed
within twenty (20) days after the date of approval of this Supple-
mental Code. Price terms and revised price terms shall become effec-
tive immediately upon receipt thereof by said agent. Immediately
upon receipt thereof, said agent shall by telegraph or other equally
prompt means notify said member of the time of such receipt. Such
lists and revisions, together with the effective time thereof, shall upon
receipt be immediately and simultaneously distributed to all mem-
bers of the Trade and to all of their customers who have applied
therefor and have offered to defray the cost actually incurred by the
Divisional Code Authority in the preparation and distribution
thereof and be available for inspection by any of their customers at
the office of such agent. Said lists or revisions or any part thereof
shall not be made available to any person until released to all mem-
bers of the Trade and their customers as aforesaid; provided, that
prices filed in the first instance shall not be released until the expira-
tion of the aforesaid twenty (20) day period after the approval
of this Supplemental Code. The Divisional Code Authority shall
maintain a permanent file of all price terms filed as herein provided,
and shall not destroy any part of such records except upon written
consent of the Administrator. Upon request the Divisional Code
Authority shall furnish to the Administrator or any duly designated
agent of the Administrator copies of any such lists or revisions of
price terms.

Section 2. When any member of the trade has filed any revision,
such member shall not file a higher price within forty-eight (48)
hours.

Section 3. No member of the Trade shall sell or offer to sell any
product of the Trade, for which price terms have been filed pursuant
to the provisions of this Article, except in accordance with such
price terms.

Section 4. No member of the Trade shall enter into any agree-
ment, understanding, combination or conspiracy to fix or maintain
price terms, nor cause or attempt to cause any member of the Trade
to change his price terms by the use of intimidation, coercion, or any
other influence inconsistent with the maintenance of the free and open
market which it is the purpose of this Article to create.

Section 5. (a) Wilfully destructive price cutting is an unfair
method of competition and is forbidden. Any member of the Trade

522

or of any other trade or industry or the customers of either may, at
any time, complain to the Divisional Code Authority that any actual
price constitutes unfair competition as destructive price cutting, im-
perilling small enterprises or tending toward monopoly or the
impairment of code wages or working conditions. The Divisional
Code Authority shall, within five days, afford an opportunity to the
member making such price to answer such complaint and shall,
within fourteen 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 N.R.A.
which shall render a report and recommendation thereon to the
Administrator.

( b ) When no declared emergency exists as to such products or any
specified part thereof, 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 (including costs of
wholesale distribution) in the determination of pricing policies.

(c) To establish the basis of cost, the Divisional Code Authority
may exercise its right at any time to call for supporting evidence of
any sale price. The supporting evidence for any sale price shall be
entirely confidential, and shall not be disclosed to any parties other
than the Divisional Code Authority and/or such parties as the
Administrator may designate.

(d) When an emergency, by reason of unfair competitive prac-
tices or other conditions, exists in the Trade as to such products or
any specified part thereof, sale below the stated minimum price of
such products or such specified part thereof, in violation of Section
6 hereof, is forbidden.

Section 6. Emergency Provisions. — (a) If the Administrator,
after investigation, shall at any time find both (1) that an emergency
has arisen within the Trade, adversely affecting small enterprises
or wages or labor conditions, or tending toward monopoly or other
acute conditions which tend to defeat the purpose of the Act; and
(2) that the finding of a basis for determining minimum prices for
such products or any specified part thereof is necessary for a limited
period, to correct the conditions constituting such emergency and to
effectuate the purposes of the Act, the Divisional Code Authority
may cause an impartial agency to investigate costs (including the
costs of wholesale distribution) and to recommend to the Adminis-
trator a basis for determining minimum prices of the said products
or the said specified part thereof affected by the emergency, and
thereupon the Administrator may proceed to fix a basis for deter-
mining such minimum prices.

(b) When the Administrator shall have fixed a basis for de-
termining minimum prices for the said j^roducts or said specified
part thereof for a stated period, which prices shall be reasonably
calculated to correct the conditions of such emergency and to effectu-
ate the purposes of the Act, he shall publish the said basis. There-
after, during such stated period, no member of the Trade shall sell
such products at a net realized price below the minimum price de-
termined upon the basis so fixed, and any such sale shall be deemed
destructive price cutting. From time to time the Divisional Code

523

Authority may recommend review or reconsideration or the Admin-
istrator may cause any determination hereunder to be reviewed or
reconsidered, and appropriate action taken.

Section 7. Each member of the Trade shall adopt and strictly
maintain cash discounts and credit terms to be established
by the Divisional Code Authority subject to the approval of the
Administrator.

Article IX — Modification

This Supplemental Code and all the provisions thereof are ex-
pressly made subject to the right of the President in accordance
with the provisions of Subsection (b) of Section 10 of the National
Industrial Recovery Act from time to time to cancel or modify any
order, approval, license, rules or regulations issued under Title I
of said Act.

This Supplemental Code shall become effective on the tenth day
after its approval by the Administrator.

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 Electrical Wholesale Trade, a division
of the Wholesaling or Distributing Trade, held in the Sun Parlor of
the Washington Hotel, on January 10, 1934. The Supplemental
Code, which is attached, was presented by duly qualified and author-
ized representatives of the Trade, complying with the statutory
requirements.

THE TRADE

According to statistics furnished by members of the Trade it is
estimated that in 1933 there were approximately 950 concerns en-
gaged in the Trade, which will come under the proposed definition in
this Supplemental Code. These concerns did an estimated business
of $150,000,000, and employed approximately 14,000 persons.

HOURS AND WAGES

This Code is supplemental to the Code of Fair Competition for
the Wholesaling or Distributing Trade and contains no hours and
wages provisions, the members of the Trade being governed by the
hours and wages provisions of the last mentioned Code.

OTHER PROVISIONS OF THE CODE

The provisions containing supplementary definitions are consid-
ered inclusive and accurate.

The supplement to the administrative provisions of the Code of
Fair Competition for the Wholesaling or Distributing Trade estab-
lishes a Divisional Code Authority which is fairh'^ and adequately
representative of all the different elements in the Trade.

The Trade Practice Provisions 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

(526)

527

zation of industry for the purposes of cooperative action among
trade groups, by inducing and maintaining united action of labor
and management under adequate governmental sanction and super-
vision, by eliminating unfair competitive practices, by promoting
the fullest possible use of the present productive capacity of indus-
tries, 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 f)Ower,
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 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 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 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,
August 13, 1934.

Article IV — Trade Practices

SUPPLEMENTING ARTICLE VII OF THE GENERAL CODE

Section 1. It shall be an unfair trade practice for any member
of the Trade to quote a lump sum price unless such quotation shows
the price of each item and unless the total equals the sum of all
the items.

Section 2. Quantity discounts shall be computed on the basis of
the quantities shipped and/or billed to a single buyer at one time;
provided, however, that when a wholesaler's stock of an item is not
sufficient to make a complete shipment a second shipment may be
made from the wholesaler's or a manufacturer's stock, and the quan-
tity discounts computed on the basis of the original order.

Section 3. It shall be an unfair trade practice for any member
of the Trade to deliver merchandise to any customer beyond the
metropolitan area of the city within which the distributor is located
without making a charge equal to that made by a common carrier
for the said delivery; provided, however, that transportation costs
may be equalized by any individual member of the Trade acting
independently as between recognized wholesaling centers. Where
necessary, the Divisional Code Authority at the request of the Code
Commission, subject to the approval of the Administrator, shall
define the metropolitan areas within a district.

Section 4. It shall be an unfair trade practice to ship any goods
on consignment except products of manufacturers whose general
plan of distribution is by consignment and not by sale for resale,
and except where the Divisional Code Authority under unusual
circumstances may allow.

Section 5. It shall be an unfair trade practice to accept returned
goods after sixty days from the date of shipment, or to accept re-
turned goods within such sixty day period, without making a service

532

charge at least equal to the seller's cost of handling the same;
provided, however, that this section shall not apply: (a) if the
occasion for the return is the fault of the member of the Trade ; or
(b) if such credit is made on account of insolvency or financial em-
barrassment of the customer and is reported to and approved by
the Divisional Code Authority; or (c) to the extent that this Section
may conflict with the law of any State.

Section 6. It shall be an unfair trade practice for any member
of the Trade to sell any electrical apparatus, appliances, materials
and/or supplies sold for use in connection therewith (except radio
apparatus and supplies) governed by this Supplemental Code from
which the name plate, serial number, or any other identifying mark
of the manufacturer, if any is customarily attached, has been effaced
or removed.

Section 7. It shall be an unfair trade practice for any member of
the Trade to employ subterfuge, directly or indirectly, to avoid
or attempt to avoid the provisions of this Supplemental Code or the
purposes and intent of the National Industrial Recovery Act, which
are to increase employment, provide better wages, promote fair com-
petitive methods, better business conditions, and promote the public
welfare.

Section 8. It shall be an unfair trade practice for a member of the
Trade to grant to a customer a discount for cash at a percentage
greater than the percentage of discount for cash received by such
member of the Trade on the same merchandise, or to allow extra
discounts for anticipation of payment, or to allow a discount for
cash on accounts remaining unpaid after the tenth of the calendar
month following date of shipment, or to grant any discount for
cash where payment is made by warrant, note or trade acceptance.

Section 9. It shall be an unfair trade practice to pay or absorb
any charge for sales promotion material of any nature furnished
by the manufacturer through the medium of the wholesaler to the
dealer; provided, nothing contained herein shall prohibit bona fide
cooperative advertising.

Article V — Permissi\^ Trade Practices

Section 1. In any Trade Area, if a majority in numbers and vol-
ume of all known members of the Trade in said Area vote in favor
of establishing uniform operating hours, such a schedule of uniform
operating hours may be recommended through the Divisional Code
Authority to the Administrator for approval. After approval by
the Divisional Code Authority and the Administrator, after such
notice and hearing as the Administrator may prescribe, said uniform
hours shall be binding upon all members of the Trade in such Trade
Area.

Approval recommended :

KEPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

Tlie President,

The White House.

Sir : This is a report on the Building Granite Chapter of the Code
of Fair Competition for the Construction Industry, which is de-
scribed as Chapter I and which was approved by you on January
31, 1934.

This Chapter is a revision after a public hearing conducted in
Washington on September 11, 1933, in accordance with provisions
of the National Industrial Recovery Act. This Chapter amplifies
Chapter I but applies specifically to the Building Granite Division
of the Construction Industry.

PROVISIONS FOR HOURS AND WAGES

Building granite is in direct competition with limestone. The hours
and wages tor manual labor for this Chapter are generally the same
as provided in the Code of Fair Competition for the Limestone In-
dustry except that minimum wages in the northern zone are two
cents per hour higher than in the Limestone Code. The hours and
wages for other employees are generally the same as provided in
Chapter I of the Construction Code.

ECONOMIC EFFECTS OF THE CODE

In 1929 there were 11,200 men employed in granite quarries, but
in 1932 the number had dropped to 7,600. The men were employed
an average of 190 days in 1932. Wages for laborers of as low as
ten to fifteen cents an hour had been reported for parts of the coun-
try. Available data indicates that the workers engaged in quarry-
ing and processing at the quarries averaged 49 hours per week in
1929, which figure was reduced to 46 hours in 1932. Available data
further indicates that it is reasonable to assume that the 40-hour
maximum average provided by the Code would absorb a large per-
centage of the unemployment in quarrying and processing at the
quarry site. It is reasonable to predict that the establishment of
uniform rates of pay, uniform hours of work, improved conditions
of employment, and a prohibition of unfair trade practices will be
beneficial to all of this Industry, as well as to the employees and the
consumers.

FINDINGS

The DejDuty Administrator, in his final report to me on said Build-
ing Granite Chapter 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 ;

(o37)

538

I find that :

(a) Said Building Granite Chapter and said Code of Fair Com-
petition for the Construction Industry, as supplemented by said
Building Granite Chapter, 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
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 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 tem-
porarily 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) Said Building Granite Chapter and the Code of Fair Compe-
tition for the Construction Industry, as supplemented by said Build-
ing Granite Chapter, as approved comply 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
aforesaid Industry ; and that said Association imposes no inequitable
restrictions on admission to membership therein.

(d) Said Building Granite Chapter and the Code of Fair Compe-
tition for the Construction Industry, as supplemented by said Build-
ing Granite Chapter, are not designed to and will not permit
monopolies or monopolistic practices.

(e) Said Building Granite Chapter and the Code of Fair Compe-
tition for the Construction Industry, as supplemented by said Build-
ing Granite Chapter, 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
Building Granite Chapter and of said Code, as supplemented by this
Building Granite Chapter thereof.

For these reasons, therefore, I have approved said Building
Granite Chapter of the Code of Fair Competition for the Construc-
tion Industry.

Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,

A dministrator.
August 20, 1934.

mailed not later than thirty (30) hours before the time set for the
opening of general contract bids when the granite is part of a general
contractor's proposed contract, or not later than thirty (30) hours
before the time set for opening of granite bids when granite bids are

manner prescribed in applicable Executive or Administrative Orders,
a copy of all bids and lists filed as described in (a) hereof. Written
notice of any apparent violation of this Article shall be filed by the
Depository with the Divisional Code Authority.

(c) Revisions. — If revisions requiring a change of less than 25%
of the cubic quantity of granite are made in the plans and/or speci-
fications after the original opening of filed bids and/or new bids
are called for, only members of the Division who bid originally may
submit new or revised bids and such members of the Division shall
immediately send a breakdown of their original bid to the depository,
and if required by the Divisional Code Authority, shall substantiate
the fact that their revised bid is made on the same basis as their
original bid. • In case the lowest filed bid (filed originally) amounted
to less than twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000.00), this para-
graph shall be effective for one hundred and twenty (120) clays and
otherwise for one hundred and eighty (180) days from the time
established in Rule 1 (a) hereof for the original filing of bids. If the
revisions require a change of 25% or more of the cubic quantity
of granite, new bids may be submitted by any member of the Divi-
sion at a time as provided for in paragraph (a) hereof.

(d) Cube. — The total net cubic quantity of granite required by
each bid or revised bid shall be filed with the bid. The cubic quan-
tity shall be determined by rectangular measure. The rectangular
measure of each piece of granite shall be the cubic volume of the
smallest rectangular box in which said piece can be enclosed.

ceed on the basis of his filed bid and shall so notify the depository.
Upon execution of the contract he shall file a copy of the contract
as required above. The depository shall immediately report this,
together with contract price, to all known members of the Division
wiio have complied with the provisions of Section 5 of Article III
in the manner prescribed in applicable executive or administrative
orders.

upon his request. The depository shall report in writing any known
or suspected violation of this Code to the Divisional Code Au-
thority. In no case shall the depository be permitted or required
to open filed bids prior to the time established in Rule 1 (b) hereof,
for the opening of filed bids.

(g) Stock and Quarry. — Each member of the Division shall name
in his bid the stock and quarry on Avhich it is based and if any other

545

member of the Division is to perform any of the functions defined in
Article I, Section 1 hereof (with the exception of carving), such
member or members of the Division shall be named in the bid.

(h) Plans and Speci-fications. — Members of the Division shall bid
on granite only in strict accordance with plans and/or specifications
which state the name and location of the work and of the Architect
and/or Engineer. This shall not prevent any member of the Divi-
sion from bidding to any other member of the Division on any
portion of any project so long as the remaining provisions of this
Code are observed. The naming or describing of any particular
granite in the specifications shall not prohibit any member of the
Division from bidding on the work in other granites, subject, how-

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 Dowel Industry, a subdivision of the Wood
Turning and Shaping Industries, and hearings having been duly

ings with respect thereto, having been made and directed to the

NOW, THEREFORE, on behalf of the President of the United
States, I, Hugh S. Johnson, Administrator for Industrial Recovery,
pursuant to authority vested in me by Executive Orders of the Pres-
ident, including Executive Order No. 6543-A, dated December 30,
1933, and otherwise; do hereby incorporate by reference said an-
nexed report and do find that said Code complies in all respects

Administrator for Industrial Recovery.

Approval recommended :

(549)

LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.
Sir: This is a report on the Code of Fair Competition for the
Dowel Industry, being Divisional Unit Number 9 of Part B of the
Wood Turning and Shaping Industry, approved Code No. 383, the
hearing having been conducted in Washington, D.C., on January
16th, 1934, in accordance with the provisions of the National
Industrial Recovery Act.

PROVISIONS ON HOURS AND WAGES

The maximum hours and minimum rates of wages for this industry
are prescribed in the approved Code of Fair Competition for the
Wood Turning and Shaping Industries of which this industry is a
unit.

CHILD LABOR

The minimum age provided in the approved Code of Fair Compe-
tition for the Wood Turning and Shaping Industries is effective for
this Divisional Unit.

ECONOMIC EFFECT OF THIS CODE

This industry employed in 1933 approximately 20 per cent more
workers than were employed in 1932, though nearly 25 per cent less
than during the year 1929. The work week averaged about 52 hours
in 1929 but was reduced under the President's Reemployment Agree-
ment to 40 hours in 1933. However, under the reduced hours with
production remaining at present levels, little increase in employment
is expected.

The minimum wage rate prescribed in this Code will greatly in-
crease the average earnings of employees as compared with the earn-
ings of 1929 and the years which followed during which time the
minimum wage was only increased from 24.1 cents per hour in 1929
to 25 cents per hour in 1933. From these figures it is apparent that
the adoption of the proposed minimum wage rates (male employees
in the north 35 cents per hour, in the south 321/2 cents per hour,
female employees 30 cents per hour in the north and 27i/^ cents in
the south) will cause an increase in the payrolls of this industry.

FINDINGS

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

(550)

551

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 management
under adequate governmental sanctions and supervision, by elimi-
nating unfair competitive practices, by promoting the fullest jdos-
sible utilization of the present i^roductive capacity of industries, by
avoiding undue restriction of production (except as may be tem-
porarily required), by increasing the consumption of industrial and
agricultural products through increasing purchasing power, by re-
ducing and relieving unemploj^ment, 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 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 the approval of said
Code.

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

Hugh S. Johnson,

Administrator.
August 20, 1934.

554

A. DESTRUCTIVE PRICE CUTTING

(a) The Princi'ple. — (i) Destructive price cutting is an unfair
method of competition and is forbidden at all times, irrespective of
the existence of an emergency ; ^

(ii) When no declared emergency exists as to any given product,
there is to be no fixed minimum basis for prices but it is intended
that sound cost estimating methods should be used ;

(iii) When an emergency exists as to any given product, sale be-
low the lowest reasonable cost of such product, in violation of sub-
section (c) hereof, is forbidden.

(b) Uniform Cost Accounting. — The Code Authority shall cause
to be formulated an accounting system and methods of cost finding
and/or estimating capable of use by all members of the Industry
and shall submit such system and methods to the Administrator for
review and approval. After such system and methods have been
formulated and approved by the Administrator, full details concern-
ing them shall be made available to all members. Thereafter it is
intended that all members should utilize the principles of such
system or methods.

(c) Emergency {Lowest Reasonable Cost). — ^^Yhen an emergency
exists, the Code Authority may cause an impartial agency to inves-
tigate costs and to determine the lowest reasonable cost of the product
affected by the emergency. Such determination shall exclude all cost
elements set forth in and shall be in all respects subject to such
rules and regulations as may be issued by the Administrator and
subject to his approval or modification after such notice and oppor-
tunity to be heard as he may prescribe. The Code Authority or the
Administrator may, from time to time, cause such determinations to
be reviewed or reconsidered and appropriate action taken.

istrator determines that destructive price cutting is rendering inef-
fective or seriously endangering the maintenance of the provisions
of this Code.

declared in rules and regulations promulgated by the Administrator
on recommendation of the Code Authority or on his own motion;

petition, evidence of which has been reported to the Code Authority ;

(bb) That the price complained of is justified as a method of
disposal of dropped lines or seconds, or

(cc) When no declared emergency exists, that the member charged
with destructive price cutting has in good faith endeavored to make
proper use of the announced cost estimating methods.

Section 2. Article IX, Section 1, of the Code of Fair Competition

REPOKT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.
Sir : This is a report on the Supplemental Code of Fair Competi-
tion for the Industrial Alcohol Industry, a Division of the Chemical
Manufacturing Industry, the Public Hearing on which was held in
Washington, D. C, June 12, 1934, in accordance with the provisions
of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery Act.

General Statement

The Industrial Alcohol Industry as represented by the Industrial
Alcohol Institute, being truly representative of this Division of the
Chemical Manufacturing Industry, has elected to avail itself of the
option of submitting a Supplemental Code of Fair Competition as
provided for in Articles XI and XII of the Basic Code for the
Chemical Manufacturing Industrv approved by you on February
10, 1934.

Resume or the Code

LABOR AND GENERAL PROVISIONS

Article II states

"All provisions of the Code of Fair Competition for the Chemical
Manufacturing Industry, as approved by the President on February
10, 1934, are hereby incorporated by reference as though completely
set forth herein."

As the Code of Fair Competition for the Chemical Manufacturing
Industry contains the labor provisions and general provisions which
apply to the Chemical Industry as defined, these are labor and gen-
eral provisions which apply to the Industrial Alcohol Industry
Division thereof.

OTHER PROVISIONS

Article III gives the necessary definitions applicable to this
Division of the Chemical Manufacturing Industry.

The term " member of the Industry " is defined to mean any per-
son holding a Federal Government permit to operate an industrial
alcohol plant, any person producing isopropyl alcohol or methyl
alcohol other than that produced from the destructive distillation
of wood and any subsidiary or affiliate thereof who sells any product
of the Industry as defined in Section 2.

The producers of methyl alcohol by the destructive distillation of
wood are excluded because they are covered by the Code of Fair
Competition for the Hardwood Distillation Industry.

(558)

559

Article TV establishes a Code Authority of nine members, consist-
ing of eight members to be elected by the Board of Directors of the
Industrial Alcohol Institute and one representative of the members
of the Industry who are not members of the Institute. The repre-
sentative of the non-members of the Industrial Alcohol Institute may
be elected by such members by a fair method of selection subject to
the approval of the Administrator or appointed by the Administrator
if they fail to elect. In addition to the above, the Administrator
may appoint not more than three Administration Members who are
to serve on the Code Authority without vote and without expense to
the Industry.

Article V provides that trade practice provisions which shall apply
to the Industrial Alcohol Industry. Some of these provisions aimed
at correcting the destructive price competition existing in this Indus-
try haA'e received a great deal of consideration in order to harmonize
them with Administration policy.

The provisions concerning the open filing of prices are in accord
with the Administration's policy as announced on June 7, 1934.

Section 2 of Article V provides as follows :

" Inasmuch as certain products of the Hardwood Distillation In-
dustry, namely, methyl alcohol for anti-freeze, are used for identical
anti-freeze purposes, as ethyl, isopropyl and various types of methyl
alcohol as covered by this Code, the filing of prices on the last named
products under this Code, and all other provisions of Article V
hereof, are not to become effective until and unless a provision for the
filing of prices of the above named products which are covered by
the Hardwood Distillation Industry Code, and the embodying of the
other provisions of Article V hereof, are incorporated in that Code.
When this is accomplished prices filed under each code shall be ex-
changed under the same conditions as outlined above insofar as they
apply to both the above named classes of products."

86360—34 26

560

thereon with respect to a modification of their Code which the Code
Authority votes on.

The last paragraph of Article V, Section 10, provides that
" The Code Authority by a two-thirds vote may at any time estab-
lish a uniform agency contract subject to the approval of the
Administrator."

This provision is stayed pending further consideration by the
Administrator of the advisability of having uniform agency con-
tracts provided for in codes.

FINDINGS

The 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 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 Supplementary Code as approved complies in all re-
spects with the pertinent provisions of said Title of said Act, in-
cluding without limitation Subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection

(a) of Section 7, and Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof; and that
the applicant Institute is an industrial association truly representa-
tive of the aforesaid Industry; and that said Institute 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
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,

Adininistrator.

such notice and opportunity to be heard as he may deem necessary :

going purposes, and

(b) An equitable basis upon which the funds necessary to support
such budget shall be contributed by all members of the Industry
entitled to the benefits accruing from the maintenance of such stand-
ards, and the administration thereof;

tute legal proceedings therefor in its own name.

tained in the approved budget, except upon approval of the Adminis-
trator: and no subsequent budget shall contain any deficiency item

Article V — Fair Trade Practice Pkovisions

Section 1. Each member of the Industry shall file with a confi-
dential and disinterested agent of the Code Authority or, if none,
then with such agent designated by the Administrator, identified
lists of all of his prices, discounts, rebates, allowances, whether
guaranteed against decline in price, and all other terms or conditions
of sale, hereinafter in this article referred to as price terms; which
lists shall completely and accurately conform to and represent the
individual pricing practices of said member. Such lists shall con-
tain the price terms for all products of the Industry (as defined

565

herein) as are sold or offered for sale by said member. Said price
terms shall in the first instance be filed within five (5) days after
the effective date of approval of this provision. Price terms and
revised price terms shall become effective immediately upon receipt
thereof by said agent. Immediately upon receipt thereof, said agent
shall b}^ telegraph or other equally prompt means notify said member
of the time of such receipt. Such lists and revisions, together with the
effective time thereof, shall upon receipt be immediately and simulta-
neously distributed to all members of the Industry and to all of
their customers who have applied therefor and have offered to defray
the cost actually incurred by the Code Authority in the preparation
and distribution thereof and be available for inspection by any of
their customers at the office of such agent. Said lists or revisions or
any part thereof shall not be made available to any person until
released to all members of the Industry and their customers, as afore-
said; provided, that prices filed in the fir^t instance shall not be
released until the date this Code becomes effective. The Code Au-
thority shall maintain a permanent file of all price terms filed as
herein provided, and shall not destroy any part of such records
except upon written consent of the Administrator. Upon request
the Code Authority shall furnish to the Administrator or any duly
designated agent of the Administrator copies of any such lists or
revisions of price terms.

Sectiox 2. Inasmuch as certain products of the Hardwood Di:s-
tillation Industry, namely, methyl alcohol for anti-freeze, are used
for identical anti-freeze purposes, as ethyl, isopropyl and various
types of methyl alcohol as covered by this Code, the filing of prices
on the last named products under this Code, and all other provisions
of Article V hereof, are not to become effective until and unless
a provision for the filing of prices of the above named products
which are covered by the Hardwood Distillation Industry Code, and
the embodying of the other provisions of Article V hereof, are
incorporated in that Code. When this is accomplished prices filed
under each code shall be exchanged under the same conditions as
outlined above insofar as they apply to both the above named classes
of products :

Section 3. When any member of the Industry has filed any re-
vision, such member shall not file a higher price within forty-eight
(48) hours.

Section 4. No member of the Industry shall sell or offer to sell
any products of the Industry, for which price terms have been filed
pursuant to the provisions of this Article, except in accordance with
such price terms. The provisions of this Article, shall not apply
to the transfer or sale of the products of the Industry to subsidiaries
or affiliates or subsidiaries thereof, as defined herein, who use the
products of the Industry in their own manufacturing operations,
nor shall the provisions of this Article apply to sales for export
from the United States or between members of the Industry.

Section 5. No member of the Industry shall enter into any agree-
ment, understanding, combination or conspiracy to fix or maintain
price terms, nor cause or attempt to cause any member of the Indus-
try to change his price terms by the use of intimidation, coercion,

566

or any other influence inconsistent with the maintenance of the free
and open market which it is the purpose of this Article to create.

Section 6. 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
complain to the Code Authority that any filed price constitutes
unfair competition as destructive price cutting, imperiling small
enterprise or tending toward monopoly or the impairment of code
wages and working conditions. The Code Authority shall within
five (5) days afl'ord 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 deferred to the
Research and Planning Division of N.R.iV. which shall render a
report and recommendation thereon to the Administrator.

Section 7. It shall be a violation of this Code for any member
of the Industry to give a commission or any other form of compen-
sation to any person on the sale of any of the products of the Indus-
try by such member to any buyer of such products in which sucli
person is financially interested or by whom he is employed. It shall
also be a violation of this Code for any member of the Industry
to employ any person financially interested in or employed by any
buyer of the products of the Industry if such employment is made
for the purpose of influencing the business of such buyer.

Section 8. No member of the Industry shall secretly offer or make
any payment or allowance to any buyer of any of the products of
the Industry, of a rebate, refund, commission, credit, unearned dis-
count or excess allowance, whether in the form of money or other-
wise, nor shall a member of the Industry secretly offer or extend to
any buyer of any of the products of the Industry, any special serv-
ice or privilege not extended to all buyers of the same class, for the
purpose of influencing a sale.

Section 9. No member of the Industry shall give, permit to be
given, or offer to give, anything of value for the purpose of influenc-
ing or rewarding the action of any employee, agent, or representa-
tive, of another in relation to the business of the employer of such
employee, the principal of such agent or the represented party with-
out the knowledge of such employer, principal or party. This pro-
vision 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.

Seciton 10. No member of the Industry shall allow a purchaser
either directly or through an agent, any commission or other form
of compensation which will result in the purchaser paying less for
his products than the price filed by the said member pursuant to
Section 1 of this Article.

A list of the agents of each member of the Industry shall be
filed with the Code Authority within five (5) days after the effec-
tive date of this Code and any changes in the lists of such agents
or any new agents created, shall be promptly reported to the Code
Authority whenever made.

567

lish a uniform agency contract, subject to the approval of the
Administrator/

Section 11. It shall be an unfair trade practice for any member
of the Industry to employ subterfuge directly or indirectly to avoid
or attempt to avoid the provisions of this Code or the purposes or
intent of the National Industrial Recovery Act, whicli are to in-
crease employment, provide better wages, promote fair competitive
methods, and to promote the public welfare.

Section 12. No provision of this Code shall be so applied as to per-
mit monopolies or monopolistic practices, or to eliminate, ^oppress, or
discriminate against small enterprises.

Such of the provisions of this Code as are not required by the
National Industrial Recovery Act to be included herein may with
the approval of the Administrator be modified or eliminated as
changed circumstances or experience may dictate.

SUPPLEMENTARY CODE OF FAIR COMPETITION

FOR THE

WHOLESALE JEWELRY TRADE

As Approved on August 21, 1934

ORDEK

Approving Supplementary Code of Fair Competition for the
Wholesale Jewelry 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 Wholesale Jewelry 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 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 ware-
house.

" 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 essentially
the same, where such competitor's price does not violate this Sec-
tion or where such competitor is not subject to the provisions of this
Supplemental Code.

(569)

570

" 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 invoice cost plus transportation
charges, as provided above : obsolete goods, bona fide closeout mer-
chandise, damaged merchandise, stocks being liquidated, merchan-
dise sold for charitable purposes or to unemployment relief agencies,
and such other merchandise as may be designated by the Divisional
Code Authorit3^

" (b) If the Administrator shall at any time find (1) that an
emergency has arisen within the trade, adversely affecting small
enterprises or Avages or labor conditions, or tending toward mo-
nopoly or other acute conditions which tend to defeat the purposes
of the Act, and (2) that the finding of a basis for determining
minimum price for all or any specified products, sold by the trade
is necessary for a limited period to correct the conditions constitut-
ing 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
minimum prices of said products. Thereupon the Administrator may
fix a basis for determining the minimum price of any of said
products 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 maj^ recommend review or
reconsideration or the Administrator may cause anj^ determination
hereunder to be reviewed or reconsidered, and appropriate action
taken."

EEPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

The President,

The White House.
Sir : This is a report of the Hearing on the Supplemental Code of
Fair Competition of the Wholesale Jewelry Trade, conducted in the
Cabinet Room of the Willard Hotel, on April 26, 1934. The Supple-
mental Code, which is attached, was presented by duly qualified and
authorized representatives of the Trade.

THE TRADE

Due to the considerable overlapping in this Trade with others,
accurate statistics are not available. According to data submitted by
the Trade, in 1929 there were approximately 1,666 concerns with
aggi-egate annual sales of $355,085,847, The Trade employed about
12,648 persons.

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 provisions containing supplemental definitions are consid-
ered inclusive and accurate.

The administrative provisions establish a Divisional Code Au-
thority 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 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 organ-
ization of trade for the purpose of cooperative action among trade
groups, by inducing and maintaining united action of labor and
management under adequate governmental sanction and supervision,
by eliminating unfair competitive practices, by promoting the fullest
possible use of the present productive capacity of industries, by
avoiding undue restriction of production (except as maj'' be tem-

(571)

572

porarily 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 Trade 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
M^thout limitation Subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of
Section 7 and Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof; and that the
applicant associations are trade associations truly representative of
the aforesaid Trade ; and that said associations impose 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 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 dministvator.

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 organi-
zation 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 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 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
applicant Institute is an industrial Institute truly representative of
the aforesaid Industry; and that said Institute imposes no inequi-
table restrictions on admission to membership therein.

(d) The Supplementary Code is not designed to and will not
permit 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; provided, however, that the provisions of Subsection (d) of
Section 4 of Article IV be deleted.
Respectfully,

Hugh S. Johnson,
August 22, 1934. Administrator.

istrator for review. If approved by the Administrator, full infor-
mation concerning such methods shall be made available to all mem-
bers of the Industry. Thereafter, each member of the Industry shall

uniform items of cost which are designed to bring about arbitrary
uniformity of costs or prices.

Article VI — Costs and Price Cutting

Section 1. If the Administrator, upon application of the Supple-
mentary Code Authority or any member of the Industry, after
investigation, shall at any time find that as to this Industry or as
to any district within the Industry both (1) that any emergency
has arisen within the Industry or within the district 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 stated
minimum prices for a specified product or service within the Indus-
try or within the district for a limited period is necessary to miti-
gate the conditions constituting such emergency and to effectuate
the purposes of the Act, the Supplementary Code Authority may
cause an impartial agency to investigate the costs and to recom-
mend to the Administrator a determination of the stated minimum
price of the product or service affected by the emergency and there-
upon the Administrator may proceed to determine such stated
minimum price.

Section 2. When the Administrator shall have determined such
stated minimum price for a specified product or service for a stated
period, which price shall be reasonably calculated to mitigate the
conditions of such eme-gency and to effectuate the purposes of the
National Eecovery Administration, he shall publish such price.
Thereafter during such stated period no member of the Industry
shall sell such specified products or services within any district for
which such price has been fixed at a net realized price below said
stated minimum price, and any such sale shall be deemed destructive
price cutting and an unfair method of competition. From time to
time the Supplementary Code Authority may recommend a review
or reconsideration, or the Administrator may cause any determina-
tion hereunder to be reviewed or reconsidered and appropriate
action taken.

595
Article VII — Publication of Price

Section 1. The District Code Committee in any district may pre-
pare a list of all articles which are standard articles upon which the
service of plating, re-plating, finishing, or re-finishing, is generally
performed within that district and shall submit such list to the
members of the Industry located within the district as a tentative
list of products upon which each member of the Industry perform-
ing industry services for customers residing within the district
shall be required to publish his prices and terms and conditions of
sale. Whenever the members of the Industry operating within such
district who employ at least 60% of the employees engaged by the
members of the Industry in that district, shall have approved such
list of standard products or any modification thereof and the same
shall have been approved by the Administrator, the District Code
Committee shall disseminate such approved list to all members of
the Industry known to be located within the district or doing indus-
try services for customers within the district, as the list of standard
products on which each member must file with the District Code
Committee, his prices, terms and conditions of sale on such services
for customers residing within the district. Within ten days after
the dissemination of such list each member of the Industry located
within the district or performing any industry services for custom-
ers located within such district shall file with the District Code
Committee or its designated agency such member's prices for the
plating, re-plating, finishing and re-finishing of all said standard
articles and shall so publish and file all subsequent changes therein
or revisions thereof, which shall be effective immediately upon
receipt thereof by the filing agency. When any member of the
Industry has filed any revision such member shall not file a higher
price within 48 hours. Such prices, terms and conditions of sale,
and changes therein or revisions thereof, as aforesaid so filed, shall,
for the purpose of this Supplementary Code, be treated as the pub-
lished prices, terms and conditions of sale within such districts on
said standard products of the member filing the same and shall be
at all times during business hours open, at the office of said District
Code Committee or its said designated agency, to all interested
parties. Promptly after receipt thereof the District Code Commit-
tee, or its designated agency, shall send, or cause to be sent, a copj^
of all such prices, terms and conditions of sale and all changes
therein or revisions thereto to each member of the Industry known
to be located witliin the District or doing work for customers
located within the district, or who shall have so filed his prices,
terms and conditions of sale or to any other interested party who
shall have registered his name and address with the filing agency and
who shall pay the cost involved.

Section 2. No member of the Industry shall offer for sale, quote
on, or sell to any customer or prospective customer residing within
the district, any of its products or services at a price or upon terms
and conditions other than those stated in such member's published
prices, terms and conditions of sale and changes therein or revisions
thereof published and filed by such member in such district, except
to another member of the Industry who is complying with the provi-

596

sions of the Supplementary Code and paying his pro rata share of
the expense thereof.

Section 3. If at any time hereafter the Administrator shall give
his approval to the reciiiirement that subsequent changes or revisions
of any prices, terms or conditions of sale, as provided in Section 1
hereof, shall be filed a specific period of time prior to the effective
date thereof, the Supplementary Code Authority may provide that
all changes in such price lists, terms or conditions of sale, or revisions
thereof thereafter filed, shall be published or filed ten days, or such
other period of time as may be approved by the Administrator, prior
to the effective date of any such subsequent changes or revisions. All
the provisions of Section 1 of this Article, with respect to making
prices, terms and conditions of sale so filed, open to all interested
parties and with resi)ect to dissemination of the same, and all provi-
sions of Section 2 of this Article shall be applicable as to any prices,
terms or conditions of sale filed in accordance with this Section 3.

Any member may file with the said District Code Committee or its
said agency such changes in his prices or terms and conditions of
sale as may re required to meet the changes filed by another member.
Changes so filed shall become effective on the same date as the'
effective date for the changes of such other member first filing as
aforesaid, or, if those changes shall have already become effective,
then the changes subsequently filed as aforesaid shall become effective
immediately upon receipt thereof by the filing agency.

FINDINGS

The Acting 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 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 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
applicant 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
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,

A dTnimstrator.

Administrator, identified lists of all his prices, discounts, rebates,
allowances, and all other terms or conditions of sale, hereinafter in
this Article referred to as " price terms '\ which lists shall com-
pletely and accurately conform to and represent the individual
pricing practices of said member. Such lists shall contain the price

or offered for sale by said member of this Industry and for such non-
standard products of said member of this Industry as shall be desig-
nated by the Supplementary Code Authority. Said price terms
shall in the first instance be filed within 10 days after the date of
approval of this Supplementary Code. Price terms and revised
price terms shall become effective immediately upon receipt thereof
by said Agent. Immediately upon receipt thereof, said Agent shall
by telegraph or other equally prompt means notify said member of
the time of such receipt. Such lists and revisions, together with the
effective time thereof, shall upon receipt be immediately and simul-
taneously distributed to all members of this Industry and to all of
their customers who have applied therefor and have offered to clef ray
the cost actually incurred by the Supplementary Code Authority in

plementary Code Authority shall maintain a permanent file of all
price terms filed as herein provided, and shall not destroy any part
of such records except upon written consent of the Administrator.
Upon request, the Supplementary Code Authority shall furnish to
the Administrator or any duly designated Agent of the Adminis-
trator copies of any such lists or revisions of price terms.

Section 2. When any member of this Industry has filed any
revision such member of this Industry shall not file a higher price

the Supplementary Code Authority may prescribe.

611

Section 5. No member of this Industry shall enter into any agree-
ment, understanding, combination or conspiracy to fix or maintain
price terms, nor cause or attempt to cause any member of this In-
dustry to change his price terms by the use of intimidation, coercion,
or any other influence inconsistent with the maintenance of the free
and open market which it is the purpose of this Article to create.

Section 6. Nothing in Article VI of this Supplementary Code
shall appl}'^ to sales to employees for their own use or between mem-
bers of the Industry, provided that such sales shall not be below
cost; and provided further that resale of such products by the pur-
chasing members of the Industiy shall be in accord with the provi-
sions of this Supplementary Code.

Article VII — Costs and Price Cutting

Section 1. The standards of fair competition for this 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 this 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
constitutes unfair competition as destructive price cutting, imperil-
ing small enterprises or tending toward monopoly or the impair-
ment of code wages and working conditions. The Supplementary
Code Authority shall within 5 days afford an opportunity to the
member filing the price to answer such complaint and shall within
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 con-
sideration should be given to costs in the determination of pricing
policies.

(c) When an emergency exists as to any given product, sale be-
low the stated minimum price of such products, 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 emergencj'-
has arisen within this 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 this Industry for a limited period is necessary
to mitigate the conditions constituting such emergency and to effec-
tuate the purposes of the Act; the Supplementary Code Authority
may cause an impartial agency to investigate costs and to recommend
to the Administrator a determination of the stated minimum price
of the products affected by the emergency and thereupon the Admin-
istrator 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

612

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,
during such stated period, no member of this 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 Author-
ity may recommend review or reconsideration or the Administrator
may cause any determination hereunder to be reviewed or recon-
sidered and appropriate action taken.

Article VIII — Unfair Trade Practices

In addition to the Unfair Trade Practices covered in Article V
of the Basic Code, except Sections A, B and F thereof, w^hich are
made a part hereof the same as though repeated and set forth at
length for all purposes of this Supplementary Code, the following
described acts shall constitute unfair practices. Any member of the
Industry who shall use or employ any of such unfair practices
shall be guilty of a violation of this Supplementary Code :

Rule 1. Secret Rebates. — No member of the Industry shall
secretly offer or make any payment or allowance of a rebate, refund,
commission, credit, unearned discount or excess allowance, whether
in the form of money or otherwise, nor shall a member of the In-
dustry secretly offer or extend to any customer any s^^ecial service
or privilege not extended to all customers of the same class, for the
purpose of influencing a sale.

insert in any invoice a false record wholly or in part of the trans-
action represented on the face thereof.

Rule 3. No member of the Industry shall permit the splitting of

the Industry received by his employee or agent with the buyer, or
his agent for the purpose of influencing a sale.

any manner which involves commercial bribery in any form.

Rule 5. No member of the Industry shall give any allowance for
used products of the Industry unless sold with the privilege of

replacement of any products of his own manufacture because of
errors in shipment or which are defective either as to material or
workmanship.

Rule 6. No member of the Industry shall give catalog allowances
to distributors or those persons publishing for them. Nothing con-
tained in this Rule shall be construed to prohibit legitimate and bona

REPORT 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 Embroidery Trade conducted
in the Green Room of the Raleigh Hotel on Saturday, May 5, 1934.
The Supplemental Code which is attached was presented by a duly
qualified and authorized representative of the Trade complying with
the statutory requirements.

TPIE TRADE

According to statistics furnished by members of the Wholesale
Embroidery Trade, it is estimated that there are approximately sev-
enty-five (75) concerns with aggregate annual sales of approximately
$7,000,000. These concerns employ approximately four hundred
(400) persons. According to the statements of the Industry, em-
ployment has not been reduced since 1929.

PROVISIONS or THE CODE

Since this Code is si^pplemental to the Code of Fair Competition
for the Wholesaling or Distributing Trade, it contains no labor pro-
visions.

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 :

(616)

617

possible use of the present productive capacity of industries, by
avoiding undue restriction of ]3roduction (except as may be tempo-
rarily 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 emploj^s 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 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 elimi-
nate or opjDress 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 d'min fstrator.

(1) week after its receipt, and shall approve the sale unless it finds
that there is in fact no necessity for the disposal of such damaged
goods or that the goods are not in fact damaged goods. If the Divi-
sional Code Authority shall not approve the sale it shall at once
notify the member of the Trade of its action and shall also notify
the Administrator, who may prohibit the sale. If the proposed
consignment sale is not prohibited by the Administrator within ten

Order, Supplementary Code of Fair Competition for the
Atlantic Mackerel Fishing Industry (A Division of the
Fishery Industry) — Approval of Plan of Curtailment of
Production, Article VIII, Title C, Section 1, Paragraphs

WHEREAS, Article VIII, Title C, Section 1, paragraph (c) and
(d) of the Siipplementaiy Code of Fair Competition for the Atlantic
Mackerel Fishing Industiy (a Division of the Fishery Industry)
pro-\T.des:

(c) In order to conserve natural resources by the elimination of
conditions leading to gluts in the mackerel market and consequent
wastage through dumping of mackerel at sea, and by the develop-
ment of the maximum usable yield compatible with future produc-
tivity thi'ough prevention of the take of small mackerel during those
portions of the season when larger sizes are available to supply the
demand for mackerel, and to rehabilitate the mackerel fishery by
maintaining a reasonable balance between the production of mackerel
and the consumption of mackerel, and by assuring minimum prices
for mackerel not below the cost of production:

(1) The Executive Committee, with the approval of the Adminis-
trator, from time to time may estimate consumer demand for mack-
erel. When any such estimate shall have been approved by the
Administrator, the same shall be deemed to be the net reasonable
market demand for mackerel; and therefrom the Executive Com-
mittee, with the approval of the Administrator, may determine
(according to the run of the fish and other conditions in the ocean)
whether the exploitation of the mackerel fishery should be unre-
stricted, or whether a total or partial limitation on the take of small
mackerel by purse seine boats should be effected.

(2) Any determination by the Executive Committee pursuant to
the provisions of subdivision (1) of this paragraph shall be revised
from time to time to conform with the net reasonable market demand
for mackerel as found as aforesaid, and all estimates and determina-
tions by the Executive Committee pursuant to the provisions of said
subdivision shall be subject to the approval of the Administrator,
and shall be based upon a pubhshed finding and statement of the
reasons therefor. Any limitation on the take of small mackerel shall
accord due consideration to the effect of such limitation on the cost
of production of mackerel larger in size.

(3) In estimating consumer demand for mackerel, due account
shall be taken of probable withdrawals from storage of frozen and
salt mackerel, of anticipated imports of frozen and salt mackerel,
and ofvproduction and consumption of groundfish.

626

(d) In the event that any determination of the Executive Com-
mittee pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (c) of this Section
fails to effectuate the conservation and/or rehabihtation poHcies
hereinbefore stated, the Executive Committee, upon due showing to
the Administrator and with his approval, may determine from the
net reasonable market demand for mackerel found as aforesaid the
poundage of mackerel, with reasonable tolerance, that may be landed
from any trip by purse seine boats engaged in the mackerel fishery.
In allocating trip poundage quotas to such boats due consideration
shall be given to boat tonnage and crew size.

WHEREAS, said Executive Committee (after due consideration
of probable withdrawals from storage of frozen and salt mackerel,
of anticipated imports of frozen and salt mackerel, and of the produc-
tion and consumption of groundfish) estimates that consumer demand
for mackerel will be approximately two million, two hundred thousand
pounds per week for the balance of the mackerel season;

WHEREAS, said Executive Committee has determined (from said
estimate, and from the run of the fish and other conditions in the
ocean) that there should be no limitation on the take of small mackerel
by purse seine boats, but that the exploitation of the mackerel
fishery should not be wholly unrestricted;

WHEREAS, said Executive Committee (from said estimate, and
after due consideration of boat tonnage and crew size) has determined
that the poundage of mackerel that may be landed from any trip by
purse seine boats of twenty or less gross tons shall be five thousand
pounds, plus one thousand pounds for each crew member including
the captain; and that the poundage of mackerel that may be landed
from any trip by purse seine boats of more than twenty gross tons
shall be five thousand pounds, plus one thousand poimds for each crew
member including the captain, plus fifty pounds for each gross ton in
excess of twenty;

WHEREAS, said Executive Committee has determined that said
restriction on the poundage of mackerel that may be landed from
any trip by purse seine boats engaged in the mackerel fishery should
be extended to October 31, 1934; and

WHEREAS, justice requires that appropriate relief be granted in
accordance with said provisions of said divisional code;

NOW, THEREFORE, I, Hugh S. Johnson, Administrator for
Industrial Recovery, pursuant to the authority in me vested, do
hereby approve said estimate of the Executive Committee of con-
sumer demand for mackerel in the amount of approximately two
million, two hundred thousand pounds per week and the same shall
be deemed to be the net reasonable market demand for mackerel;
and do hereby approve said determination of said Executive Com-
mittee limiting the poundage of mackerel that may be landed from
any trip by purse seine boats engaged in the mackerel fishery, said
determination to remain in effect until October 31, 1934, unless by
further order I shall direct otherwise; and do hereby order that, to
avoid violation of the letter rather than the spirit hereof, said Execu-
tive Committee shall allow reasonable tolerance in the poimdage of
mackerel landed from any trip by said boats; and do hereby order
further that the provisions hereof shall not become effective until
said finding of said Executive Committee as to consumer demand for

627

mackerel and as to restriction of the exploitation of the mackerel
fishery, together wdth a statement of the reasons therefor, shall be
published to the members of the Atlantic mackerel fishing industry;
and do hereby order further that said publication may be effected by
news items in the Gloucester Daily Times, Boston Post, Boston Globe,
Boston Herald, and Portland Press Herald.

principal business (as above defined), is covered by the trades or
industries enumerated above shall be exempted under the provisions
of such Order.

Section E. Costs and Price Cutting. —

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

645

(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-
plain to the Sub-Code Authority that any filed price constitutes
unfair competition as destructive price cutting, imperiling small
enterprise or tending toward monopolj^ or the impairment of code
wages and working conditions. The Sub-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 con-
curred 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) Wlien 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) AVlien an emergency exists as to any given product, sale below
the stated minimum price of such product, in violation of paragraph
2 hereof, is forbidden.

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 specified product within the industry for a limited
period is necessary to mitigate the conditions constituting such emer-
gency and to effectuate the purposes of the Act, the Sub-Code Author-
ity may cause an impartial agency to investigate costs and to recom-
mend 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.

(b) Wlien 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 Sub-Code Authority may recommend review or
reconsideration or the Administrator may cause any determinations
hereunder to be reviewed or reconsidered and appropriate action
taken.

Article X — Code of Ethics and Unfair Practices

In cases where terms prohibited by the Code or this Merchandising
Plan were made prior to the adoption hereof, except where existing

Granting Temporary Man Hour Tolerance

EXEMPTION— CODE: PACKAGING MACHINERY, INDUSTRY AND
TRADE; CODE NO. 72, DIVISION II

APPLICANT

Code authority for the Packaging Machinery Industry, and Trade.

FACTS

Application having been made by the Code Authority for the
Packaging Machinerj^, Industry and Trade for exemption for the
members of said Industry from the maximum hours provisions of
the Packaging Machinery, Industry and Trade Code, and it appear-
ing that because of the drought the United States Government has
requested the meat packers of the country to slaughter enormous
quantities of cattle, that the meat packers have put an unusually
heavy burden on the Packaging Machinery, Industry and Trade to
supply the machines necessary to preserve the perishable meat, and
it further appearing that the corn crop of the country is ready for
harvest, which will place a burden on the already heavily taxed
resources of the Packaging Machinery, Industry and Trade to supply
sufficient machines and it further appearing that loss of perishable
animal, and/or vegetable products will result if there is delay in
furnishing equipment and that all of the employees skilled in the
Packaging Machinery, Industry and Trade have been absorbed into
the Industry.

RULING

NOW, THEREFORE, pursuant to the authority vested in me by
the Administrator for Industrial Recovery, and otherwise, it is ruled
that the members of the Industry who are confronted with an emer-
gency where delay in furnishing equipment might result in the loss
of perishable animal, fruit, or vegetable products are exempted from
the maximum hour provisions of the Code of Fair Competition for
the Packaging Machinery, Industry and Trade in that such members
may work employees engaged in the making of the products of the
Industry a 15% man hour tolerance above the maximum hours pro-
vision as contained in Article VIII, Section 1 of the Code of Fair
Competition for the Packaging Machinery, Industry and Trade.
Provided, however, that not less than time and one-half his regular
rate shall be paid to each employee for all hours worked in excess of
8 hours in any one day, or 40 hours in any one week; provided, further,
that each employer availing himself of the tolerance herein granted
shall file with the National Industrial Recovery Administration such

666

reports as may be requested by the Administrator for the purpose of
determining whether this exemption is necessary; and provided
further that the exemption herein granted shall terminate on the
expiration of the sixtieth day after the date of this Order, unless I,
by my further Order, otherwise direct.

6, 1934, pertaining to Article XI of the Code of Fair Competition for

fact and recommendations made by the Deputy Administrator, which
findings and recommendations were made on August 21, 1934, and

Executive Order No. 6543-A, dated December 30, 1933, and other-
wise, do hereby find that,

(1) Article XI of the Code of Fair Competition for the Ice Industry
is temporarily required to effect the purposes embodied in the decla-
ration of policy in Section 1 of Title I of the National Industrial
Recovery Act;

(2) Article XI of the Code of Fair (Competition for the Ice Industry
is a regulation necessary, reasonable and proper in aid of such other
provisions of the Code as pertain to wages, hours and other labor
provisions and to the anti-dumping provision;

(3) In view of the large number of persons, firms, or corporations
engaged in the Industry, and in view of the fact that further increase
of production facilities may be had upon approval of the Administra-
tor, upon the showing of public convenience and necessity therefor.
Article XI of the said Code of Fair Competition would not tend to
create a monopoly in tliis line of commerce ;

(4) In view of the fact that Article XI operates to exclude future
enterprises only in fields where additional ice production facilities are
not necessary and will be uneconomical, it is a provision which can-
not contravene the provision in the National Industrial Recoveiy
Act that the codes of fair competition should not be designed "to
eliminate or oppress small enterprises"; and since the provision oper-
ates equally against all persons who might wish to construct new
ice plant facilities, it is not a provision which might "operate to dis-
criminate against" any small enterprises.

It is further ordered that Article XI of the said Code of Fair Com-
petition for the Ice Industry be continued in full force and effect.

Trade for a Period of Ninety (90) Days

WHEREAS I have found, after investigation, as a result of destruc-

arisen within said Trade which is adversely affecting small enter-
prises, labor conditions and other conditions tending to defeat the
purposes of the National Industrial Recovery Act as approved June
16, 1933, and that the determination of stated minhnum prices for
specified products of the said Trade, as hereinafter enumerated and
defined, for a limited period, as hereinafter set forth, is necessary
to mitigate the condition constituting such emergency and to effec-
tuate the pui'poses of said Act, and the Code Authority for said
Trade having caused an impartial agency to investigate costs for the
said products and said agency having recommended to me certain
minunum prices for the said products, and I having found that the
determination of such stated minimum prices would reasonably miti-
gate the condition of such emergency and effectuate the purpose of
the National Industrial Recovery Act,

NOW, THEREFORE, pm-suant to and in full compliance with the
provisions of Article IV, Sections 1 and 2, of the Supplemental Code
of Fau' Competition for said Trade and by virtue of the authority
vested in me by Executive Orders of the President, and otherwise;
it is hereby ordered and published that the minimum net price for
the following products of said Trade for a period of ninety (90) days
hereafter shall be:

No. 1 Mixed Papers (defined as all waste paper commonly
designated and known as such in the Trade): $6.50 per ton,
f.o.b. plant,

Folded News (defined as clean, dry, sorted newspapers com-
monly designated and known as such in the Trade): $8.50 per
ton, f.o.b. plant,

and that no member of said Trade shall sell any such products at a
net realized price below said aforesaid minimum prices for the said
period; provided that any attempt on the part of the Waste Paper
Trade to build up, during the period of emergenc}^, plans for main-
taining fixed prices following the emergency, either for buying or sell-
ing, is directly contrary to the conditions on which the emergency is
