major (or minor) dispute
Major disputes within Railway Labor Act are those concerned with formation of collective bargaining agreements or with efforts to secure such agreements and look to acquisition of rights of future rather than to rights which vested in past; and, "minor disputes" are those arising where there is existing agreement and there has been no effort to bring about formal change in terms or to create new agreement but dispute relates to application of particular provision.
