 DISPUTE) St. Louis Southwestern Railway Company

 STAT-711ENT OF CLAIM: Claim of the System Committee of the Brotherhoods

 (1) That Carrier violated the Clerks' current Agreement at North Little Rock, Arkansas, on February 23, 1953, when it gave Mr. Massey a call for work and only allowed him two hours at time and one-half rate, and also on July 4, 1953, when it gave Mr. Bethea a call for work and only allowed him two hours at time and one-half rate.

 (2) That Mr. W. W. Massey be paid for a minimum day of eight hours at time and one-half rate for the work he performed on February 23, 1953: from 8130 P.M., to 10.30 P.M.

 (3) That Mr. F. H. Bethea be paid for a minimum day of eight hours at time and one-half rate for the work he performed on July 4, 1953, from 11:00 P.M., to 1;00 A.M.

 FINDINGS: Under the facts in this case it is developed that the claimants
 were notified and called to work twice on a recognized holiday in
 the agreement. They worked and were paid eight hours at time and one-half
 for their first tour of duty and several hours later were called back to per
 form other service and make claim for eight hours.

 Rule 32-3 of the agreement provides that employees notified or called to work on specified holidays shall be allowed a minimum of eight hours. This is a special rule and cannot be considered in conjunction with the General Call Rule 32-2.

 AWARD: Claim sustained.
