United States. National Mediation Board

These are 15 cases which have come up through the grievance procedure of the railroads and have been deadlocked in the appropriate division of the National Railroad Adjustment Board, a committee of three representatives from management and three from the union. This is the fifth step in the grievance procedure, and if it deadlocks a neutral referee is appointed by the National Mediation Board to sit with the Adjustment Board and resolve the disputes. Cases in this dispute were deadlocked on December 8, 1956. Harold M. Gilden was appointed Referee and hearings were begun September 17, 1957 in New York. All of the cases involve the questions of "Time claims" that is grievances involving penalty payments for violations of the agreement.
