Section 8 (c) of the Code, authorized the Code Authority to obtain information and reports required for ad- ministration of the Code. The Lad.iest Handbag Industry has never had true vital statistics and failure to submit payroll reports severely handicaps the Code Authority in its endeavor to maintain up-to-date and accurate statistics of the Industry. Your earnest cooperation is requested. ><** * TEBUIS: It is a violation of the Code to sell on terms in excess of 3/10 eom.
