About this title

Synopsis

This book encompasses the Lumber and Timber Products Industries Code of Fair Competition, an act from 1933 designed to establish fair trade practices and revitalize the struggling industry. As part of Roosevelt's National Industrial Recovery Act, the code addressed concerns of employee welfare, resource conservation, and economic stability. The author analyzes the code's provisions, such as limits on production, minimum wage increases, and forest conservation measures, which aimed to restore the industry's health and ensure its long-term sustainability. By examining the historical context of the code, the author highlights its significance as a response to the Great Depression era's economic challenges. Ultimately, the book provides insights into the complex relationship between government regulation, industry practices, and the well-being of both workers and the environment.
