OF Way Mems case in the L. :. Rail
road Labor Board was a closed incl
dent. after a decision announced by
the board yesterday denying their
plea for punitive overtime beginning
al the end Of eight hours work.
In previous decision the board
granted the maintenance men slight
Increases for several classes Of work

ton.

former board ruling granting the men
time and one-half overtime after the

employees by holding that their time
stfrted and ended at designated as
