PRESIDENTS INDUSTRIAL
RECOVERY PLAN
Last Monday evening Prevident
Roosevelt was heard over the radio
with an outline of what the plans are
to raise wage«, create employment,
increase purchasing power and re­
store business under the National In­
dustrial Recovery Act. Since then
copies of an agreement to co-operate
have been delivered to industries all
over the United Staten, with a request
that they be signed and returned af­
ter August 1.
This agreement is
temporary only, and will be succeed­
ed by the code which each industry in
the country will nubmit to Washing­
ton for approval.
Following is a copy of the re-em­
ployment agreement in so far as it af­
fects industries in this section of Ore­
gon:
rate or on a piecework performance.
(7) Not to reduce the compensa-
sation for employment now in exc«se
of the minimum wages hereby agreed
to (notwithstanding that the hours
worked in such employment may be
hereby reduced) and to increase the
pay for such employment by an equi­
table rtadjustment of all pay sched­
ule«.
(8) Not to use any subterfuge to
frustrate the spirit and intent of this
agreement which is, among other
thing«, to increase employment by a
universal covenant, to remove ob­
structions to commerce, and to short­
en hours and to raise wages for the
shorter week to a living basie.
(9) Not to increase the price of
any merchandise sold after the date
hereof over the price on July 1, 1933,
by more than is made necessary by
actual increase« in- production, re­
placement, or invoice costs of mer­
chandise since July T, 1933, or by
taxes or other costs resulting from
actioh taken pursuant to the Agri­
cultural Adjustment Act, and, in set­
ting such price increases, to give full
weight to probable increases in «ales
volume and to refrain from taking
profiteering advantage of the consum­
ing public.
, .
(10) To support and patronise es-
tablishmente which also have signed
this agreement and are listed as
members of N. R- A. (National Re-
eovery Administration.)
(14) To cooperate to the fullest ex-
tent in having a Code of Fair Compe-
ition submitted by his industry at the
earliest possible date, and in any
•vent before September 1, 1M3.
(12) Where, before June 16, 1933,
the undersigned had contracted to
.urch.se goods at a fixed P""
lelivery during the period of this
agreement, the undereigned will make
an appropriate adjustment of said
1xed price to meet any increase in
•ost caused by the seller having
ugned thia President’s Reemployment
Agreement or having become bound
oy any Code of Fair Competition ap­
proved by the President.
(13) This agreement shall cease
upon approval by the President of a
ode to which the undersigned is sub­
ject; or, if the N. R. A. so elects, upon
submission of a code to which the un-
lersigned is subject and substitution
if any of its provisions for any of the
terms of this agreement.

There is only one type of body construction which
Chevrolet will permit on the chassis of the cars it
builds: That’s the type which every test — and every experiment — and
every experience has proved to be the safest, strongest, and best.
Not steel alone, because ^eel alone is not enough. But a Fisher body
of steel reinforced by hardwood! The same kind of construction used
on practically all the highest-priced cars in America.
