 STATEMENT OF CLAIM:

 "Claim of the General Committee of The Order of Railroad Telegraphers on the Missouri Pacific Railroad, that.:

 Carrier violated the Agreement between the parties when it arbitrarily diverted 'Telegrapher 'S. W. Clark from Position'No. 10,.'GM' Telegraph Office, St. Louis, Missouri, to the position of Assistant Manager in that office on August 28, 1957.

 Carrier caused Claimant Clark to lose the day of September 2, 1957, a holiday, for which he would have been paid eight hours at the time and one-half rate.



On July.29, 1957, the claimant, who is an extra telegrapher, was called to fill .a temporary vacancy on telegrapher position No. 10, Carrier's "GM" Relay Office,,St..Louis, Missouri. This position had assigned hours 10:00 A.M..to 6s00 P.M., Saturday through Wednesday, reef days'Thuraday and Friday. The claimant worked position No. 10 from July 29, 1957 to August 27,,1957, and on August 28, 1957 was moved to the temporary vacancy on the position o£ Assistant Manager, work week Monday through, Friday, rest days Saturday and Sunday.

 The Organization enters claim here for eight hours' compensation at the time and one-half rate because the position o£ Assistant Manager, to which the claimant was moved on August 28, 1957, was not required to work on Labor Day Holiday, Monday, September 2, 1957, whereas position No. 10, from which he was moved, was required to work laid holiday.

 It is clear from the record that .the Carrier had the right to move the claimant from the temporary vacancy on position No. 10 to the temporary vacancy, on the position o£-Assistant Manager, the latter position paying a daily rata of 84p in excess of the rate o£ position No. 10. It is also clear that an extra telegrapher thus moved takes the conditions o£ the position to which moved, including work days and rest days of that position.

 From these facts the Board concludes that the claimant here was properly required by the Gamier to move from position No. 10 to the Assistant Manager
