one-half rate of pay, contrary to the well known and firmly established principle of this and other Divisions of the National Railroad Adjustment Board that the proper compensation for work not performed is the pro rata rate.



In conclusion, the carrier respectfully reasserts that the employes' claim in the instant dispute is entirely without support under the governing agreement rules and should be denied in its entirety for reasons previously set forth herein.


FINDINGS: The Second Division of the Adjustment Board, upon the whole record and all the evidence, finds that:


The carrier or carriers and the employe or employes involved in this dispute are respectively carrier and employe within the meaning of the Railway Labor Act as approved June 21, 1934.


This Division of the Adjustment Board has jurisdiction over the dispute involved herein.




The instant dispute involves the same principle and parties and essentially the same factual situation as in Award No. 4370 and the Board holds that Award to be controlling. Accordingly, the claim is denied.










Dated at Chicago, Illinois, this 20th day of December, 1963.
