            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.


        Parties to said dispute waived right of appearance at hearing thereon.


_ The question to be determined in this dispute is whether, on this
        property, the Sheet Metal Workers had the exclusive right to perform the

        work involved.


        The Board is of the opinion that, as far as these parties are concerned, the question has been answered in the Organization's favor by Second Division Awards No. 5950 and No. 6063. Rule No. 84 was violated.
