CHICAGO, ROCK ISLAND AND PACIFIC
RAILWAY COMPANY
STATEMENT OF CLAIM: For and in behalf of Waiter James I. White, who for a number of years past, has been employed by the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific Railroad Company. Because the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific Railroad Company did under date of August 28, 1944 discipline him in violation of the terms of our agreement and further even had the company complied with the terms of the contract, and had the merits of the case been considered, the discharge was unjust and in abuse of the company's discretion and based upon charges unproved; and further, for the record of Waiter White to be cleared of the charges made against him and for Waiter White to be returned to service with seniority unimpaired and reimbursed for the pay lost as a result of having been unjustly disciplined.

That the Carrier and the Employes involved in this dispute are respectively Carrier and Employe within the meaning of the Railway Labor Act, as approved June 21, 1934;
