STATEMENT OF CLAIM: "Claim of A. C. Ceballos (606) that:
(a) Carrier violated the provisions of the current Clerks' Agreement
at Los Angeles, California when it improperly bulletined position 6190 on
October 16, 1986, by inserting the term 'and other duties as may be assigned'

(d) Claimant A. C. Ceballos shall now be compensated interest at the

Honorable Board."
FINDINGS:
The Third 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 employes 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.
As Third Party in interest, the Transportation Communications Union
was advised of the pendency of this dispute and filed a Submission with the
Division.
The facts indicate that no conference was held as required by Rule 47
of the Agreement and the Railway Labor Act. For the reasons set forth in
Third Division Award 26749, the Claim must be dismissed.
Finally, even if the merits could be reached, we can find nothing
in the applicable Agreement between the Carrier and the Organization which
supports the Claimant's position that such Agreement was violated.
