(Paul Stone PARTIES TO DISPUTE: (REA Express, Inc.

 STATEMENT OF CLAIM: "This is to serve notice, as required by the Rules
 of the National Railroad Adjustment Board of my
 intention to file an Ex-Parte Submission (30 days from the date of
 this Notice), covering an unadjusted dispute between me and the REA
 Express Inc., 219 East 42 Street, New York City.

 I believe I have been illegally discharged by REA Express and not protected by the Union involved B.R.A.C., Local No. 2130.

 Subsequently, I was re-instated to the metropolitan roster but never recalled to the telephone room.

 My investigation reveals I could have worked there from June 1973 until January 4, 1974.

 I seek payment of the lost wages for that period plus payment for my own hospitalization plan and de
Re-instatement notice will be proven in my Ex-Parte Submission together with proof of earnings lost through this contractual violation."

 OPINION OF BOARD: Our review of the record in this case clearly
 shows that the claim which petitioner is attempting
 to assert before this Board was not handled on the property of the
 Carrier in accordance with the requirements of the applicable collective
 bargaining Agreement as required by Section 3, First (i) of the Railway
 Labor Act and Circular No. 1 of this Board. Therefore, the claim as
 described above is barred from consideration by this Division and is
 accordingly dismissed.


        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;

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

        That the claim is barred.


                    A W A R D


        Claim dismissed.
