IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SEPTEMBER 23, 1946
EXECUTIVE ORDER
CREATING AN EMERGENCY BOARD TO INVESTIGATE t. DISPUTE
BETWEEN
THE UTAH IDAHO CENTRAL RAILROAD CORPORATION
AND CERTAIN OF ITS EMPLOYEES
WHEREAS a dispute exists between The Utah Idaho Central
Railroad Corporation, a carrier, and certain of its employees repre-
sented by the International Association of Machinists, a labor
organization; and
WHEREAS this dispute has not heretofore been adjusted under
the provisions of the Railway Labor Act, as amended; and
WHEREAS this dispute, in the judgment of the National Mediation
Board, threatens substantially to interrup interstate commerce within
the states of Utah and Idaho, to a degree such as to deprive that
portion of the country of essential transportation service:
NOW, THEREFORE, by virtue of the authority vested in me by
NARA
section 10 of the Railway Labor Act, as amended (45 U.S.C. 160), I
hereby create a board of three members, to be appointed by me, to
investigate said dispute. No member of the said board shall be
pecuniarily or otherwise interested in any organization of railway
employees or any carrier.
The Board shall report its findings to the President with
respect to the said dispute within thirty days from the date of this
order.
As provided by section 10 of the Railway Labor Act, as
amended, from this date and for thirty days after the board has made
its report to the President, no change, except by agreement, shall
be made by the Utah Idaho Central Railroad Corporation or its employees
in the conditions out of which the said dispute arose.
