AFFILIATED WITH THE A.F. of L. "SCHEDULE WITH SAFETY" Air Line Pilots Association INTERNATIONAL 3145 WEST SIXTY-THIRD STREET CHICAGO 29 May 3, 1950 TELEPHONE GROVEHILL 6-2200 [[image - logo]] 537 Capt. M. A. Gitt 188-40B 71st Crescent Flushing, New York Dear Mike: I regret that a heavy docket prevented me from replying earlier to yours of April 21st. To answer your inquiries categorically, I will state that I am in complete agreement with your observations on Judge Simmons' Decision and that I intend to be in New York during the week of May 15th, at which time I hope to work with you, Bob and Stu on the preparation of a request for Judge Simmons interpretation of his Decision. However, due to the fact that both parties agree that the neutral's decision shall be final and binding, I doubt that it is possible to secure an actual reversal of the Judge's Decision. For the same reason, it probably is not wise to file a group grievance based upon the Judge's Decision. As you know, grievances are predicated upon actions by the Company and the Decision of a neutral hardly comes in that category. Nevertheless, I don't think that is actually necessary, because an "interpretation" of Judge Simmons' Decision should certainly correct some of its flagrant errors. With best wishes and looking forward to seeing you in May, I am Very truly yours, AIR LINE PILOTS ASSOCIATION Maurice H. Schy Maurice H. Schy Legal & Conciliation Department MHS/hb cc: David L.
