Before Judges CLAPP, JAYNE and FRANCIS.


The opinion of the court was delivered by FRANCIS, J.A.D.

A petition for rehearing has been presented in this cause, the employer contending that under our decision nothing remains for arbitration.

The opinion adverted to the difficulty created by the very general nature of the question which the union presented for arbitration. The issue was so broad that we exerted special efforts to ascertain its precise boundaries from the briefs and oral argument.
