 QUESTIONS
 AT ISSUE: (1) Did the Carrier violate the provisions of the
 February 7, 1965 Agreement, particularly Article I,
 Section 1, when it failed to return J. E. Kelly to
 service properly in accordance with normal procedures
 of the agreement?
 (2) Shall the Carrier be required to compensate
 J. E. Kelly one day's pay on a punitive basis
 beginning with March 1, 1965 and continuing until
 such time as he is placed on the position he would
 have occupied had he been returned to service properly
 in accordance with normal procedures of existing agree-

OPINION
 OF BOARD: The Carrier asserts that Claimant Kelly is a protected
 employee under the February 7th Agreement. He was re
 called to service pursuant to the provisions of that
 Agreement and has been regularly employed and compensated while working
 on a position of Mail Clerk at Hagerstown since March 6, 1965. Moreover,
 the record contains no probative evidence that Carrier failed to com
 pensate him for any benefits that he might otherwise be entitled to under
 the February 7, 1965 Agreement.
