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 fundamental issue involved in this dispute is identical with that involved in Award No. 5665, which arose out of a similar dispute between the parties, requiring interpretation of the same rule of the effective Agreement.- Accordingly, we find our earlier Award No. 5665 controlling precedent in the instant dispute, and the claim will be sustained.
