 QUESTIONS
 AT ISSUE: (1) Did the Carrier violate the provisions of the February 7,
 1965 Agreement, particularly Articles I and IV, when it refused,
 and continually refuses, to compensate Robert L. Nutter, Baggage
 man-Janitor, Superior, Wisconsin, commencing Match 29, 1970, and
 each work day thereafter, for the difference between his guaranteed
 Yard Clerk's rate of $27.06 per day and the rate of the position
 to which assigned, plus subsequent general wage increases?
 (2) Shall the Carrier now be required to compensate Robert L.
 Nutter for the difference between his protected rate of Yard
 Clerk and the rate of the position to which assigned, plus sub
 sequent general wage increases, commencing March 29, 1970 and
 each work day thereafter?

 OPINION
 OF BOARD: . Except for the fact that Claimant's position was abolished on
 March 28, 1970, when he thereafter displaced a junior employee at
 a lower rate of pay, the issues are similar to Case No. CL-82-j1.
 In view of our analysis and conclusions reached in Award No. 262,
 we are resolving the matter in the same manner.

1. The matter is remanded to the parties for negotiation of a local agreement in accordance with the Opinion.

 2. We shall hold in abeyance the question whether Claimant is entitled to additional compensation pending conclusion of an agreement for a substitute formula.
