assignment of overtime, is whether the employes in the

The question herein has been decided in Awards 19920 and 20416
which are controlling. We concur with the opinions expressed therein.

respectively Carrier and Employes within the meaning of the Railway Labor Act,
as approved June 21, 1934;
That this Division of the Adjustment Board has jurisdiction aver
the dispute involved herein; and
That the Agreement was not violated.
