Description
MERRILL, Circuit Judge: At the heart of the dispute which we here face is the question of who shall be employed in the newly established yards of
the Southern Pacific Company at City of Industry, California: the members of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen (BRT), or
the members of the Switchmen's Union of North America (SUNA). Under the terms of collective bargaining contracts between Southern
Pacific and these unions, the members of BRT are entitled to such employment and the members of SUNA are not. SUNA is engaged
in an effort to take this employment from BRT and secure it for its own members. The immediate question is whether they can
compel Southern Pacific to bargain with them on a proposed change in their agreement which would directly accomplish this
end. The District Court held that they could. We here reverse.
