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 employe 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.

This case involves four separate Claims now before the Board. These essentially assert that the Carrier violated "Rule 1-Scope." However, while Claims Nos. 1 and 2 involved different locations than Claims Nos. 3 and 4 and slight variations of the tasks being challenged, we conclude, after a thorough review of all of the Claims, that the controlling issues and questions are identical.

Pursuant to the Railway Labor Act, the Board is constrained to consider only the issues and arguments presented on the property. In this dispute, we note that a number of documents and arguments connected thereto have been presented for the first time at this level and, therefore, will not be considered.

With respect to those elements of the Claims which are properly before us as developed on the property, we find that the Organization has not substantively refuted the material statements contained in the Carrier's denial letters of March 25, 1988 (for Claim No. 1), April 13, 1988 (for Claim No. 2), May 20, 1988 (for Claim No. 3) and July 15, 1988 (for Claim No. 4). Accordingly, the material statements stand as established fact and the Claims must be denied.
