Synopsis

This book presents an executive order that approves a code of fair competition for the bituminous coal industry. The order includes provisions for minimum wages, maximum hours, and other working conditions in the industry. It also establishes a code authority to administer the code and to investigate complaints of unfair practices. The order is significant because it was one of the first examples of government regulation of an industry under the National Industrial Recovery Act. The book provides valuable insights into the history of labor relations and government regulation in the United States. The author argues that the code was successful in stabilizing the industry and improving working conditions for miners.
