At th? suggestion of the Agencies of the Government, the Cotton Textile In dustry was also the first to agree to the creation of an Industrial Re lations Board composed of an equal number of representatives of labor and industry and of a Chairman representing the public interest. 7. In the face of all this and un der conditions of declining volume of business in the Industry, the United Textile Workers, who repre sent only a minority of the em- olovees, ignored all agencies of the N.

Mr. the Government members of the Cotton Textile Code Authority. (d) The Research and Planning Division of the N. R. A. reported that there was no factual or statis tical basis for any general increase at that time in Cotton Textile Code wage rates. The report concluded that increased production, more or less simultaneously, in all indus tries, was “the necessary prior con- diton for a permanent increase in real wages.” 5. This settlement was signed of Governmental administration. Changes in conduct of Govern mental administration are matters for action by the constituted au thorities. 12. The Board of Inquiry will find that the Code Authority has heretofore urged the strengthen ing and improvement of the func tioning of Government machinery in these matters. We continue to urge the strengthening of this machinery. 13.
