OPINION OF BOARD: The Petitioner in this case complains of work on
the Harbor Belt Railroad being allotted to other
than Signal employes of the former Pacific Electric Railway Company.
Petitioner asserts that such work assignment was a violation of the
Agreement between it and the latter company. No agreement between
Petitioner and Harbor Belt is shown.

The Respondent Carrier in this dispute has shown that while work of the type in question has been performed by its employes on the Harbor Belt, Harbor Belt at all times retained control of work on its property.

It follows that Respondent is not responsible for the act complained of and that this claim must be denied.

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


        That the parties waived oral hearing;


That the Carrier and the Employes involved in this dispute are respectively Carrier and Employes within the meaning of the Railway Labor Act, as approved June 21, 1934;
                    Award Number 2222$ Page 3

                    Docket Number SG-22150


That this Division of the Adjustment Board has jurisdiction aver the dispute involved herein; and

        That the Agreement was not violated.

        Claim denied.
