4. The maximum working time laid down in paragraphs 2 and 3 above shall not apply to workers in establishments employing a maximum of two employees in cities with fewer than 2 500 inhabitants whose cities do not belong to a larger industrial zone; or licensed pharmacists or other professionals employed in their profession; or employees in management or management positions who now receive more than $35 per week; or employees performing urgent maintenance and repair work; or in very specific cases where limiting the working time of highly skilled workers in continuous processes would inevitably reduce production, but in such a particular case, at least time and a third are paid for hours worked that exceed the maximum value. The population for the purposes of this Agreement shall be determined by reference to the 1930 census. (10) Support and paternalism of the entities which have also signed this Agreement and which are included in the list of members of the N.R.A. (National Recovery Authority). 1. This agreement is part of a national plan to increase wages, create jobs, thus increase purchasing power and restore the economy. This plan depends entirely on the joint action of all employers. That is why I ask you, as an employer, to do your part by signing.
1. The provisions of the President`s Re-employment Agreement (8) Do not use excuses to thwart the spirit and intent of this Agreement, which consists, inter alia, of increasing employment through a universal pact, removing barriers to trade and reducing working hours and increasing wages for the shorter week to a subsistence base. During the period of the president`s urgent action for reinstatement, i.e. from 1 August to 31 December 1933, or on an earlier date of approval of a fair competition code to which it is subject, the undersigned agrees with the President as follows: (12) The undersigned had concluded before 16 June 1933 a contract for the purchase of goods at a fixed price for delivery during the term of this Agreement, The undersigned shall make a reasonable adjustment to this fixed price to compensate for any increase in costs caused by the signature by the seller of the agreement for the reinstatement of that President or shall be bound by a Fair Competition Code approved by the President. (14) It is understood that any person wishing to contribute to the reintegration efforts of the President by signing this Agreement, but affirming that a particular provision of this Agreement gives rise to significant and unavoidable difficulties due to special circumstances, may obtain the benefits of this Agreement by signing and bringing into force this Agreement, then, on request, which has been approved by a professional association representative of its sector or by another representative organization designated by the N.R.A., may request the suspension of that provision pending a summary investigation by the N.R.A. if it agrees in such a request to comply with the decision of such an inquiry. This Agreement shall be concluded in accordance with Article 4(a) of the National Industrial Recovery Act and subject to all the conditions required by Articles 7(a) and 10(b) of this Law. In order to implement the policy of Title I of the National Industrial Recovery Act, adopted on 16 June 1933, and to ensure the equitable application of the agreements previously concluded with the President and the codes approved by the President under that Act, I, Franklin D. Roosevelt, President of the United States, in accordance with the authority conferred on me by Title I of the said National Industrial Recovery Act, hereby establishes the following rules and regulations which shall result in the amendment of any conflicting provision of any regulation, authorization, rule or regulation previously published under Title I of the said Act. 2. If the general agreement proves unfair to a group of employers, they may remedy it by submitting their draft Fair Competition Code without delay.
Employers who join me in this extension of the President`s re-employment agreement can continue to show the Blue Eagle as a symbol of their cooperation, and the few employers who have not yet signed the agreement can sign it as extended and receive a Blue Eagle after handing over a signed certificate of compliance to the post office. (13) This Agreement terminates with the approval of the President of a code to which the undersigned is subject; or, if the N.R.A. so wishes, upon presentation of a code to which the undersigned is subject and by replacing one of its provisions with one of the conditions of this Agreement. published on 27. . . .
