Hugh S. Johnson, Administrator for Indnistrial Recovery, Approval recommended: Barton W. Murray, Division Administrator, Washington, D.C, July 21, 1931 75358° S20-124 34 (1) REPOKT TO THE PRESIDENT 3^6 President, Th^e White House. ^ Sir : This is a report on the Supplemental Code of Fair Compe- tition for the Air Filter Subdivision of the Machinery and Allied Products Industry, public hearing having been conducted thereon in .Washington, D.C., December 21, 1933. in accordance with the provi- sions or Title I of the National Industrial Recovery Act. Every person who filed a request for an appearance was freely heard in public and all statutory and regulatory requirements were complied with. GENERAL STATEMENT The National Association of Air Filter Manufacturers, being truly representative of this Subdivision of the Machinery and Allied Prod- ucts Industry, has elected to avail itself of the option of submitting a Supplemental Code of Fair Competition, as provided in Article I of the Basic Code for the Machinery and Allied Products Industry approved by you on the seventeenth day of March 1934. This Subdivision represents a part of the cajDital goods industry, manufacturing and selling equipment used solely for the cleaning of air and other gases, and parts thereof except for use in aeroplanes, automobiles, trucks or tractors. ECONOMIC EFFECT In 1929 this Subdivision employed approximately 400 persons, including ofSce workers. Employment of factory workers, estimated to be 338 in 1929, declined to approximately 164 in November, 1933, or 61.5 per cent. Annual sales of the Subdivision, based on estimates furnished by the National Association of Air Filter Manufacturers, declined from $2,000,000 in 1929 to $800,000 in 1933, or 60 per cent. Approximately 69 percent of the workers were working more than 40 hours per week as of June 15, 1933. The average work-week declined from 50 hours in 1929 to 38.6 hours in November 1933. Estimated average man-hours per week declined from 16,900 in 1929 to 6,330 in November 1933, or 62.5 per cent. Until there is a further increase in man-hour requirements, the adoption of the 40- tiour week will not cause an increase in employment in this Sub- division. Based on graphic interpolation of summarized National Recovery Administration questionnaire returns as of June 15, 1933, approxi- mately 18.8 per cent of the workers were receiving less than 40 cents per hour; 13.6 per cent were receiving less than 38 cents per hour; 6.5 percent were receiving less than 36 cents per hour; and 3.1 per (2) cent were receiving less than 32 cents per hour. The adoption of the minimum wage rates provided by the Code will probably cause a small increase in the total payrolls of tliis Subdivision. RESUME OF THE SUPPLEMENTAL CODE ] Article I states the purpose of the Supplemental Code. Article II accurately defines specific terms employed in this Sup- plemental Code. Article III. The labor provisions of the Basic Code for the Machinery and Allied Products Industry, as approved March 17, 1934, are incorporated by reference as the labor provisions of this Supplemental Code.

Article V establishes a code authority consisting of three mem- bers. The Administration, in his discretion, may appoint one addi- tional member, Avithout vote and without expense to the Subdivision. Together with the applicable provisions of the Basic Code, mech- anism is provided for the administration of this Supplemental Code. Article VI provides for an accounting system and methods of cost finding and/or estimating. Article VII provides that during an emergency, the lowest reason- able cost of products of the Subdivision may be determined, and that during said emergency, it shall be an unfair trade practice to sell at less than the determined reasonable cost.

Article XIII provides that there shall be no inequitable restric- tions and provides against monopolies. Article XIV gives the effective date of this Supplemental Code. FINDINGS ; . ';• The Assistant Deputy Administrator in his final report to me on said Supplemental Code having found as herein set forth and on the basia of all the proceedings in this matter : I find that : (a) Said Supplemental Code is well designed to promote the pol- icies and purposes of Title I of the National Industrial Kecovery Act, including removal of obstructions to the free flow of interstate and foreign commerce which tend to diminish the amount thereof, and will provide for the general welfare by promoting the organiza- tion of industry for the purpose of cooperative action among the trade groups, by inducing and maintaining united action of labor and management under adequate governmental sanctions and super- vision, by eliminating unfair competitive practices, by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the present productive capacity of in- dustries, by avoiding undue restriction of production (except as may be temporarily required), by increasing the consumption of indus- trial and agricultural products through increasing purchasing power, by reducing and relieving unemployment, by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise rehabilitating industry. (b) Said Subdivision 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 representa- tive of the aforesaid Subdivision; and that said association imposes no inequitable restrictions on admission to membership therein. (d) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and will not permit monopolies or monopolistic practices. (e) The Supplemental Code is not designed to and will not elimi- nate or oppress small enterprises and will not operate to 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 on the condition that certain provisions relating to price publi- cation are stayed, as stated in the Order. Respectfully, Hugh S. Johnson, Adininistrator. July 21, 1934.

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

Copies thereof, with notice of the operative date specified, shall be immedi- ately published and sent to all employers cooperating under this Supplemental Code as described in Article V, (d) any of whom may file, if he so desires, revisions of his price lists and/or discount sheets and/or terms of sale and payment, which shall become effective upon the date when the revised price list and/or discount sheets and/or terms of sale and payment first filed shall go into effect.^ (b) If and when the Code Authority shall determine that in any group of the Subdivision not now selling its product on the basis of price lists with or without discount sheets with terms of sale and payment, the distribution or marketing conditions in the group are the same as, or similar to, the distribution or marketing conditions in the group where the use of price lists, with or without discount sheets and terms of sale and payment is well recognized, and that a system of selling on net price lists or price lists and discount sheets with terms of sale and payment for such specified product should be put into effect in such group, then each employer in such group shall, witliin twenty (20) days after notice of such determination, file with Code Authority net price lists or price lists and discount sheets, with terms of sale and payment, who shall immediately publish and send copies thereof to all known employers cooperating under this Supplemental Code, and such price lists and/or discount sheets * See paragraph 2 of order approving this Code. 10 and/or 'terms of sale and payment may be thereafter revised in the manner hereinabove provided. Provided that Code Authority shall make no determination to place any product of the Subdivision (not now on a price list basis) on a price list basis, as provided in this Section unless affirmative consent to such determination is given by a 66%% vote of employers who are at that time cooperating under this Supplemental Code as described in Article V (d), and are en- gaged in manufacturing such product. The eligibility requirements, method, and effect of such voting shall be the same as i^ provided in Article V. i (c) Code Authority for the purpose of determining the lowest Reasonable cost shall to the extent permitted by the Act, have power, on its own initiative, or on the complaint of any employer, to in- vestigate any price or the terms of sale and payment for any product of any employer; and, for the purpose of the investigation thereof, to require such employer to furnish such information concerning the cost of manufacturing and selling such product as Code Authority shall deem necessary or proper for such purpose, and as the Act may allow. 1 No employer shall sell directly or indirectly by any means whatso- ever, any product of the Subdivision covered by provisions of this Article VIII at a price or at discounts or on terms of sale and pay- ment, different from those provided in his own current net price lists, or price lists and discount sheets, and terms of sale and pay- ment. t Article IX — Unfair Practices r ^ Each of the following acts and practices is deemed to be inimical to the best interest of the Subdivision, and of the public, and each is, therefore, hereby declared to be and to constitute an unfair method of competition, and is prohibited, viz : (1) The secret payment of any 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 offer or extend to any customer any special service or privilege not ex- tended to all customers of the same class, for the purpose of influ- encing a sale. (2) The payment, or promise to pay, to any agent, fiduciary or representative, of money or valuable thin^, with or without the knowledge of his principal, in connection with any sale to his prin- cipal. This provision shall not be construed to prevent the free and general distribution of articles commonly used for advertising, ex- cept so far as such articles are actually used for commercial bribery as hereinabove defined. (3) The publishing of advertising (whether printed, radio, dis- play, or of any other nature) which is misleading or inaccurate in any material particular, nor shall any employer in any way mis- represent any goods (including but without limitation its use, trade- mark, grade, quality, quantity, origin, size, substance, character, nature, finish, material, content, or preparation) or credit terms, values, policies, services, or the nature or form of the business conducted. (4) The engaging in destructive price-cutting by any employer of this Subdivision. 11 Article X — Sales for Export The provisions of this Supplemental Code concerning pricing and marketing shall not apply to direct export sales of any product or to sales of any product destined ultimately for export. The term " export " shall include all shipments to all places without the sev- eral states of the United States and the District of Columbia; pro- vided, howeve-r, that no shipment to any territory or possession of the United States shall be considered an export when any employer is engaged in the Subdivision in such territory or possession. Article XI — ^Modifications (a) As provided by Section 10 (b) of the Act, the President may 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 eligibihty requirements, methods and effect of such voting shall be the same as provided by Article V hereof. Article XII — Withdrawal Upon thirty days' notice to the Basic Code Authority and to the Administrator, this Subdivision may, upon the concurring 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 and the method and effect of such voting shall be in accordance with the provisions 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. Article XIII — Monopolies Applicant imposes and shall impose no inequitable restrictions on membership therein. The Supplemental Code presented by it is not designed to promote monopoly, and shall not be so construed or applied as to oppress or eliminate small enterprises or discriminate against them, and is designed to effectuate the policy of the Act.
